I'm just kicking off a new drawer build project and am building to the original dimensions but without the table. Looks like it will fit nicely on 2 sheets using a 1/8" kerf for the saw. Thought this might help someone else out, happy building!
Ignore what the fridge says. Check the voltage at the battery terminals and in the end of the dometic plug that plugs into the fridge (Plug the VOM into the power wire directly.). That will tell you if you have a wiring issue or if it's the internals of the fridge. Based on my experience with...
I'm running a CFX85 - one compartment on frozen and the other on fridge. My 24H consumption on the fridge is in the 20AH range on the fridge for the first day of cooling and 15AH on subsequent days. YMMV.

Rick,
Appreciate the input...
Mine doesn't even get to the battery saver mode. Fuse pops while still in the 12V range. Given the length of run and the 8 amp peak draw on the CF-80 14g could handle the load with minimal drop. I'm running 12 at the moment, 10 shouldn't make a darn bit of...
Worth a shot ... just a real pain in the ass to rewire the fridge. I don't really have time to do a 3 day out of the rig test with all of the camping we are doing. I'll try to rewire this weekend and report back.

Interesting that @DometicOutdoors was on Expedition Portal Wednesday and hasn't responded. Hopefully they are working up a response, however my hopes aren't high.
