Residential Refrigerator replacement for an RV

Has anyone replaced their RV absorption refrigerator with a residential unit? How's it work for you and what do you do when there is no shore power?

Thanks in advance..

Re: Resodential Refrigerator replacement for an RV

I've read where some have done it and like it. They run off an inverter when hooked to the truck for 12 volt. Otherwise the batteries wouldn't keep up. I think one or two high end manufacturers even offer it as an option...Don
