New fridge Indel b v Dometic...?

[Quattrodave]

Evening all,

 

I'm looking for some first hand experience and or recomemdations.  I need a fridge, the two I'm currently looking at mainly due to dimensions and power consumption are the Indel b / Isotherm Cuise 65 and the Dometic / Waeco CRX 65.  If I really shop around the are a similar price, dometic being a bit more expensive. But then there is a power saving factory upgrade available for the Indel fridge...  240v would be a nice addition but not required, I don't want gas...

 

Thanks

 

Dave

I have the Waeco 85, very happy with it uses ~30Ah per day (which is very low compared to other makes.

 

IMPORTANT - TAKE NOTE

Ensure you use the cable size specified in the manual (as a minimum - bigger is better). Our cable ran the old fridge quite happily but the Waeco would not run properly, I ended up rewiring with 8.5mm2 cable for a 2 metre distance (fridge to bus-bar)

Thank you, I have just purchased the Waeco CRX 65 (the 85 wouldn't quite fit) I'll make sure the cable is of the correct guage.
