Im about ready to add a 12v cooler to my 00F-Century;
Is Igloo or Coleman the better choice?? I will place it inside a cabinet w/o doors on the right from the bunk under the pullout desk...

Also I need info on how to rig power for it, and power for a 500w inverter.
Straight to the Battery for constant hot? what gauge wire must I use?

Thanks

I wouldnt put the cooler inside a box. As it depends on air to help keep it cool inside. As to the size of the wire Sorry dont know what size it would be. But I would say jumper cable size.

My husband has fried 2 power inverters by not installing them or wiring them correctly. The most recent one was using the wrong gauge wire. He is having his 3rd power inverter professionally installed this week...

Actually the manual that came with it recommends that you have it professionally installed. It's about 30 bucks to have it done, so worth it, I would say. Either way, the manual that came with our inverter says what gauge of wire to use...maybe it's listed in yours too?

And we have our Igloo inside the little cabinet next to the bunk right under the pull out desk, and it works just fine.

I'd advise anybody that has to have wiring done, whether you're an electrical genius or not, to have the Company he/she works for-Unless it's his/her own truck of course

One, If you are installing that cooler you can put it in the cabinet. Since it's an ambient cooler you will need to trick it into thinking it's colder than it truly is. In the truck that is. Run a flexible hose like a dryer vent hose or something of that nature to the sensor and fan assembly on cooler from an AC vent and the cooler will produce ice. Try it.
