[QUOTE="Ridge Runner, post: 601070, member: 3775"] Yes I think that is the best combo, When it comes to using the power I tried it using the 78 as a freezer and the 18 as a fridge which is fine for month long or more trips if you are going to be charging via a DC to DC plus Solar but for normal trip where you park up having the right charging setup is crucial, Best set up for shorter trips is the 47 as a fridge and the 18 as a freezer, The bigger 78 uses little power as a fridge as little as 0.45Ah but in freezer mode set at -16 on average it will use around 1.35Ah which is 32.8Ah per 24 hours where as the 47 will use 25.283Ah per 24 hours when set to -14*c which is about a 7.5Ah Saving every day. I love the room of the 78 and how well it cools having the bigger BD-50 Compressor but when set to below -12 you start to see a bigger power draw, As a fridge there is very little difference in the power draw compared to a 40L fridge.
