I think there's little point in adding a second battery.
What I'm wondering about, is whether to get 12v fridge or get an invertor and 120v fridge instead.
If going with an inverter, what brand / capacity?

Has anyone installed a fridge in their X5??
The overlanding trend has made 12v car fridges super reliable and cheap. They're also super efficient, so if you need to keep something frozen while the car is off, it won't drain your battery quickly. Added plus is you can attach a solar panel when camping.

I have a cheap "Alpicool" that has been working well for about 4 months now. I bring it inside the house and keep it running 24/7 and so far no issues.
