We were considering electric, it would have to be 12v as we have no shore power. The performance of the solar panel is not as good as we had thought so for now I think I'll stick with the gas fridge, it is very efficient when working ( efficient in temp terms not sure n the gas )<br /><br />Thanks again,<br /><br />NevNev Wellshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07047359519459723079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5087283544997030082.post-75446454805145678712011-12-29T14:15:18.977+00:002011-12-29T14:15:18.977+00:00Hi Nev.

It will be here on the scrap pile for a while if you are interested. I never tried lighting it but apparently it was in good working order. Alan - it really did need replacing, the interior lining was all cracked, and we couldn't justify the expense of an equivalent new gas one, which we would only really make use of when away from the mooring. I'm not even sure if it was 3-way, certainly no 240 lead on it.. as I said to Nev, it was unlike any other I've ever seen.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01759448161130667128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5087283544997030082.post-57154065254628314342011-12-28T21:03:59.857+00:002011-12-28T21:03:59.857+00:00This will not help you now if replacement is order...This will not help you now if replacement is ordered, but might be of interest to others......<br /><br />If the fridge was "gas only" then running it permanently on your mooring would have incurred quite a bit of cost in Calor, though it is not as crippling as some suggest.<br /><br />However, if it were 3-way (LPG/12V/240V), then whilst it is bonkers to try and run one on electric, (either 12V or 240V), when boating, I don't think the costs of running on 240V from a shoreline are that prohibitive, (and will certainly undercut gas, unless your electric is being supplied at a huge mark-up).<br /><br />But if you just want it "for when tied up", and you have the space and the 240 volts, I doubt you will regret what you have done.<br /><br />AlanAlan Fincherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05818658735421434869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5087283544997030082.post-57474706673583910702011-12-28T20:52:11.760+00:002011-12-28T20:52:11.760+00:00Sarah,
