View the latest post Refrierator replacement -Santego 380


My Norcold DE-461 refrigerator/freezer conked out on my 2001 Santego 380. That unit is out of production as is its replacement. It was a 12V/120V system. I found a 12vdc/120vac Vitrifrio that might fit. But I ave also seen some straight 12vdc untis that might fit and are sinificantly less expensive. Any thoughts on going with a 12vdc system only. Here is my thinking about only having 12dc.
-When I am on shore power at the dock the battery charger will keep the batteries up
-When I wm cruising without gen running, engine altenator will keep the batteries up
-When I am cruising or at anchor with the gen running, the battery charger will keep the batteries up
Is it worth the extra expense for the 12vdc/120vac refrigerator?
