Is the fridge an absorption or compressor type?

For how long do you intend to operate without mains power?

Do you have any other means of charging the battery when not on mains power?

Sounds like a bar fridge.
Many are lousey and use lots of power. On the back will be a plate showing watts consumption.
Start with that information.

Cheers,
Peter
