many  thanks  for  the welcome both  to Heiny and BigJules , I  think  the  secret  to  good  refrigration  is to have  a  top opening fridge with 100mm   insurlation ,  have  had  it  running  for  7 days with  the  last  2 overcast so  little  charge  from  the  solar  panel , temp is 3 c at  the  senser and - 5 c at base  of  the  fridge . I  think it  will  run  the  led light at  night that  are  yet  to  be  fitted , so  we can  free  camp with  no  power  problems , many  thanks to you both
