ekstarr 1 Rivet Member 1952 17' Clipper Marina del Rey , California Join Date: Jan 2014 Posts: 15	inverter + vintage Marvel fridge? I have an old/renovated Silver Streak Clipper. Anyone try to use batteries + inverter charger to run a vintage Marvel refrigerator? My electrician fried 3 inverters trying to do this. Turns out the Marvel has a 2 prong plug and the whole trailer is hot. Any work arounds? Ideas? Thanks __________________ 1952 Silver Streak Clipper 22' "Nature is not mute, it is man who is deaf."

id really love that, but for the time being want to keep my Marvel fridge. My trailer is 90% all original and a very clean example.
