Comment on What's your contingency plan for the apocalypse?
zorflieg@lemmy.world 2 weeks agoI don’t mean to criticise but if you can add anything more (like the other 200w space) I suggest you should. 👍

Yeah, I mean apocalypse scenario is not my main goal. But it’s nice to have a contingency plan if shit would hit the fan.
This is my second season with the caravan, I had an apocalypse sailboat before that. I put 2x100W on it for the first season, added another 2x100W this season while going from 160Ah lead-acid to 300Ah Lithium. It’s a night and day difference there already.
I’m plugged in most of the time, either for air conditioning or heating - the Mrs wants her comfort. There’s a three-way absorption fridge (220V, 12V or gas) that draws like 110W. I can still be unplugged for three nights or so with that running; which makes long distances or overnight ferries possible without ruining food.
And if we want to stay somewhere without shore power we can flip the absorption fridge to gas and be cooking with gas as well. The compressor fridge chest that sips 30W usually sits in under the awning in front anyway.
