This avoids running batteries down and avoids running the fridge at a tilt if you park on a slope. There are some that say the latter item is not much of a concern in the newer fridges. I won't argue that point.

I also installed a relay to cut power whenever ignition is off.
Works great..... With no worries about battery going dead..:-)
