You might want to consider Nova Kool, they also use the Danfoss Compressors that Vitrifrigo uses. Their warranty is only two years, but they won't cost as much as the Isotherm or Vitrifrigo's either.

For my install I had to cut the fiberglass to widen the opening about an inch. If you have the existing ice box, just check the dimensions and find one that will fit.

Anyone have a recommendation for a good 12 v fridge? The space for the fridge is about the size of a big mini fridge.
Thank you!

Pete


What is in there now ? Is the fridge just missing or is it one of those coolers in the space. It would be great if all the wiring for 110/12 is there.....Is there a breaker on the panel ?


Bud 37, there is a breaker and there are 12 volts to it which is great. I ordered the isotherm ocean 65 I think it was called. Waiting for it to be delivered.

I'd search the internet cause west marine is hardly ever gonna be the cheapest price even with a sale. There's plenty of marine outfitters out there.
