    Refrigerator controls question

    Are the refrigerator controls of the 2018 Imagine 2670mk directly off the batteries or the inverter?

    Yes.

    The 12 volt system runs off the battery when not connected to shore power. When connected to shore power the 12 volt system runs off the converter as well as the converter charging the battery. This is true for all 12 volt systems in the RV such as lights, fans and furnace as well as the refrigerator.

    I think you mean converter. An inverter makes 120v ac from 12v dc, converter makes 12v dc from 120v ac and charges the battery.

    Oh crap, you’re right it is most certainly the converter.

    I edited to correct that mistake.

    Thank you for response

    Thanks for answering. By the way, my question should have read converter rather than inverter.
