Never heard back from you about your experience. Having just come from a
seminar by Richard Kollman, and looked at a variety of options, I'm still
very much interested to know what you think I'm facing negative about having
taken out my genset...

If you are going to have GB Fridge you might want to re-consider keeping
the generator.

Please expand on your Glacier Bay comments. I've seen many
correspondences
which have said that reefers run quite happily on solar alone when someone
forgets to disconnect the panels and the reefer while away, and some folks
who have done considerable research (with nothing to sell) have told me
that
GB, while taking momentary large loads, is quite manageable if you have
the
battery capacity (which I believe we should, with 800-1300AH).

Thanks.
