if you only want a cold beer now and then, there are these cheapish little
12v Peltier Junction fridges showing up on the consumer market these days.
I don't know their current drain. it may be 2a (48 AH/day) but if you
only wanted the occasional cold drinkie, you could run the thing for just
a few hours (while motoring, perhaps) and make it an occasional treat...
These units are very inefficent. If you go the self-contained route, be sure
to get a freon compressor type unit.
would be curious to know what others are doing...
I suggest you look at the Engel units, they worked well for me.
