Hi, I have no expertise at all in this area but I am not sure if a single 120ah has enough capacity to run the 90lt effectively. I have an 80lt Waeco & I am just organising 2x 200ah 6v to run mine. If you go to the Century web site they have a table that you can use to calculate usage & a calculation of suggested capacity of power needed.

Hi Greyghost, and others, A 80lt Waeco has a BD50 Danfoss compressor,It will use 5 amps running, And a 120 amph deepcycle Batt. will give you around half the amps of 120 = 60 amphs give or take a few amphs. If its summer it will cycle much quicker, and winter will cycle less, if its used as a freezer or a fridge..... So it hard to say just how it will do on a set battery.... Hope this gives you some insight... Bob n Bev

Not sure who you are asking Ma, but if it is us, we are in Perth, or Guilderton to be exact.

There is no guaranteed time factor here. As stated above is correct, fridge/ freezer/ summer/ winter/ how often you open fridge/ what you add to fridge / state of charge when you stop /etc etc. The power consumpsion of 5amps does not change, its the run time that varies. You will need to recharge on a daily basis.
