110v JLU

[tebow]

Hello everyone,
Probably a silly question for some, but my knowledge on the subject is limited.
I installed a 500W Power station to run the fridge for more than 24 hours without starting the car. And above all, do not use the car battery.
My installation is simple, the power station is permanently connected via its adapter to the 110v socket at the back of the car. The fridge is plugged in via the cigarette lighter socket on the power station. When I drive, the power station recharges and as soon as I start the car, the power station supplies the fridge.
Problem, after a certain time which seems totally random to me, the connection cuts off at the 110v socket of the car, the warning light also goes out. I hear a little noise from the dashboard (a "click", maybe a relay?)
I think the problem comes from the difference in amperage between the 110v plug and the in of the power station.
Unfortunately for cable length issues I cannot currently use the cigarette lighter socket on the dashboard.
Do you have an idea?

Plug the Jackery into the 12v cig outlet in back. Leave the fuse for that outlet on the keyed slot. Dont use the 120V

I believe the onboard inverter is 150W so I think the charger for the Jackery is pulling more than the onboard inverter can provide - [email protected]=165W. I assume you're not wanting to use the rear 12v outlet because it isn't switched?

Thanks for your fast reply, but I can not use it with my configuration, the fridge is in the left side and I dont have space for plug the jackery.. maybe there are low profile plugs.

Either that or move/add another plug to a different location.

I was going to also say you may want to be careful with the fridge on t hat side. It looks like the vents might be covered when the tailgate is closed. That might open up the 12v outlet but make sure that is switched. If it isn't it could drain your main battery keeping the Jackery charged.

Look up ARB 12v locking plug. Would work perfect for you.
