i'm yet to leave the fridge running for more then 5 hours so far...
i plan to probably leave the fridge running for 15 hours max before doing a day of driving, say 4 to 5 hours of driving, when camping/4wding. well the car will be running during 4wding so its still getting a charge...
i honestly dont know the charge rate of the car...
i plan to eventually get a proper charger (multistage like the ctek) and then do a full slow charge after every trip to keep it looked after and maintained.
1 hour a day is probably MINIMUM i drive however.
i'm guessing its time to invest in a deep cycle battery then ay tony? you say that i'm probably using 46Ah for 23 hours of use (approx 50% being cycling), then i actually think getting a deep cycle would be a good choice.
is it worth getting a 100Ah battery? if 50% discharge of a deep cycle is a safe point then a 100Ah probably works out better in the end if i'm doing 46Ah a day approx.
