Yeah, i mean some types of things it's ok to fail and then 'work up to adequacy', basically add until it stops failing. But when you have food spoilage involved, it may be better to just bite the bullet up front on something that will work right off the bat, rather than just waking up to no power and going 'welp, i guess ill add another battery sometime'.I’m starting to see why a 10kw battery is needed.
Ive had the luxury of 'sneaking up on good enough' on my batteries because A. I ALWAYS had enough to run my fridge, and B. I ALWAYS had enough solar input during the day. So i was able to start small with batteries and build up until it stopped sucking because my goal was really just to have air conditioning overnight, which is technically optional.. In your case you probably never want the fridge to go down so its advisable to start with something more than the bare minimum.
