    I can say living down here and dealing with people passing out left and right a quality cooler is absolutely worth the money

    That being said, doesn't have to be top of the line name brand as long as the specs are comparable ill take a yeti knock off any day of the week

    100 watt does fine? I’ve been looking at a 150-260w setup just so i don’t have any issues. We’d like to have a 70-80qt fridge

    Wtf are you trying to run? Yeah 100watt renogy works fine. You'll get about 20 percent less effective because that's how it is. I'm getting easily 50-80 watts 2.6-8apa variable. But that's here. I'm from NV. If you angle it, face south it will be even more effective. If you need help with an install lemme know if gladly help. I love solar. It's free energy and unlimited at that! I power my fridge 24/7, 3a USB outlets for my camp lights, bettery packs. It all kicks ass. I also upgraded the battery to a Northridge 31.

    My wife bought me a giant Yeti cooler last year for my birthday. I took it back and bought a 65qt dual zone from Mike for $480. I can go 3 days off my North Star battery without needing to start the truck and have a NOCO 40 incase I kill it. Not a fancy $1,200 fridge and a $800 solar generator system but gets the job done.https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/csi-fridge-freezer-mega-thread.560526/page-44

    Spending idea! If you're running laptops/CPAP def generator is the way to go. For most people who live in the southwest where it is sunny 260 days out of the year I can say maybe not all need a generator .however, for the pnw they are handy to have, and for days like these work great. Again solar kicks ass.

    I have a 2k generator and a Jackery 1000, dual battery is maybe on the list at some point, but for now I feel plenty covered. Depends on the situation what gets brought, but having options is good

    Well.. I’ve been eyeballing the Bluettie 700 pretty hard. I’ll start running into problems running my diesel heater and fridge at the same time this fall. I’m probably just being a cheap ass and trying to talk myself out of pulling the trigger for now.

    Speaking of batteries who has seen options for mounting a second/dual battery setup in places other than the cab/engine compartment?
