The Norcold dual voltage frig and also small Norcold chest freezer that
I have use a 40 volt AC compressor to better accomodate power convesion
Each has a special inverter that transforms the 112 vac to 40 vac and
converts 12 vdc to 40 vac to operate this super efficient little compressor.

For such a small frig or freezer compartment these unit still have a
larger (than domestic) evaperator which does a quicker and more
efficient cooling/freeze cycle.

If you go ahead and use a domestic frig, be sure to disable the
automatic defrost system and any stip heaters in the door seal. Very
wasteful of boat battery power. Do a manual deforst at the dock.
