Everchill recommends using a pure sine wave inverter to ensure a clean and consistent power supply to the compressor of the # 324-000118 refrigerator. The refrigerator draws 2.5 amps which would convert to 300 running watts. Multiply that by 3 to get the necessary wattage for compressor start-up, which would be 900 watts. So, in order to power your refrigerator you'll need an absolute minimum of a 900 watt inverter. This assumes that the refrigerator is all you're wanting to power with the inverter.
I'd recommend the Progressive Dynamics Pure Sine Wave Inverter # PD34FR. The inverter features an integrated transfer switch automatically changes from inverter to shore power when available, which is a handy feature to have.
