Newbee first 5th wheel and first truck. RV'ed many years with Class A's and Class C's but Wife Unit wanted MORE room..
Chuck is right, lots of variables. Keep the doors closed, no ice etc, 6-8 hours tops.

There are a few threads that get into just how many watts theses things suck out per hour. It’s staggering. I now have (2) six volt batteries dedicated to the fridge, and (4) 6 volt dedicated to the rest of the trailer. I can switch them over to help the fridge batteries when they run low.
