STOP WASTING POWER! ⚡️ Are you tired of your RV or boat 12V fridge/freezer draining your batteries too fast or failing to keep your food cold? In this video, we dive into the ultimate DIY upgrade to transform your cold storage into a power-saving machine. ​This guide is based on the comprehensive blog post linked below, covering how to get precise control over your system, improve efficiency, and even unlock a "Turbo" mode for maximum cooling power when you need it. ​Here's what we cover in this major DIY upgrade: ​Digital Temperature Control: Say goodbye to unreliable mechanical thermostats! We show you how to install affordable digital temperature relays for consistent, precise freezing and refrigeration. ​Spillover Fan Installation: Learn the secret to efficient fridge cooling. Since most boat/RV setups cool the fridge parasitically from the freezer, installing a small spillover fan is essential for even temperatures and preventing wasted power. ​Variable Speed Compressor Tuning (SECOP/Danfoss): We explain how to tune your 12V compressor (like the BD35F or BD50F) using simple resistors. Set up an "Off/Normal/Turbo" switch to select between high-efficiency sailing mode and maximum cooling mode. ​Whether you're living off-grid, cruising, or just looking to optimize your RV system, this is a must-watch DIY! ​🔗 READ THE FULL STEP-BY-STEP BLOG POST HERE for photos, detailed wiring diagrams, and links to all the parts: https://www.chrisdoeswhat.com/rv-boat-freezer-cold-power-saver/
