• Easy Way to Add Switch to Everchill Refrigerator for RVs # 324-000119
  
• If you are looking for an easy way to power the Everchill Refrigerator for RVs # 324-000119 on and off with a switch instead I have a better solution than trying to wire in a switch.

• How Do RV Appliances Receive Operating Power
  
• RV power systems are usually set up so that when shore power is connected it will be the priority power source used to power devices like your fridge and also to charge your battery bank. Once disconnected from shore power the on-board battery bank becomes the power source. It sounds like your RV is set up this way and so what you are seeing is normal. With the battery disconnected and no shore power available the fridge should go dark.

• How Does Battery Amp-Hour Rating Affect 12V Refrigerator Operating Time
  
• A battery's group number just refers to its physical size; a group 24 battery measures roughly 10.90 x 6.75 x 8.75 inches.

They say that the counters and cabinets around it will keep the fridge in place. They are 23-1/2" wide x 24-3/4" deep x 59-5/8" tall so the hole would have to be slightly larger than that.
