Hi, we have had the 40amp companion for about a year. We use it in the car when driving, running a 45litre fridge while powering the battery off the car. This way when we stop to site see or get lunch the fridge keeps running. The battery is still full when we arrive at camp so will run the fridge overnight. The only issue we have had with the unit is once the battery reaches 100% charging from AC it turns off the AC charge and runs the fridge off the battery. We thought leaving the battery plugged in to power whilst running the fridge would keep battery at 100% but this is not the case. We have to We are looking to do 3 to 4 nights off grid so want to add more capacity to our setup. Thinking the Rover 100 sounds a good option. If we pair it with the 200 watt solar panels, can we still use these to charge our 40 amp battery?
So I do t need a separate solar charger to run a fridge and a 12v box?
