    Just running the fridge atm to test it out. It does seem to run better on 12V then it does on 240V. Relatively speaking, you do not have to turn the fridge up as much on the dial to get it as cold. Atm I am running it just past 1 on the dial to get a constant 3 degrees. Very happy with that.

    Also I think that the transit bag is worth its weight in gold. Especailly as I have not tinted the back windows yet. I will get the sky lights tinted as dark as I can go and then the back window and side windows darkest legal.

I need to tidy up the wiring in the engine bay (previous owner) and then I only have 40cm or so out the back to cover.
    Fair enough, but after 22 years of using polarised plugs, I have never had a failure, or one come undone, even on horrendous corrugations.

    Maybe when they're at the battery end of the cable, but going by the pics, the fuses are by the fridge!
