[QUOTE="condor22, post: 300410, member: 1932"] In this day and age returns happen. I have 2 Redarc BCDC1220s and have had no problem with either, over 4 years old... Correct wiring and use are also essential, lol. I guess the first thing to do is disconnect the circuit, reconnect and retry. Keep in mind that a solar controller or indeed a Dc to DC won't charge if the battery is full. So run the fridge for a few hours without charging, then connect the solar and see what happens. My van has 2 x 100W multi spectrum panels. At my last use, I had used 42AH overnight (checked at about 8.30 am) When I returned at 1pm same day, the battery was full. My portable 110W multi will replace my overnight Engel use by lunchtime in the 4x4 (not driving). Both on an average partially overcast cool day. [/QUOTE]
