I am planning to replace my current 220v holding plate freezer system with a 12v system.
Shortlisted choices are EITHER Isotherm ASU with eutectic plate OR Simple, but large, evaporator plate.
Since we run a generator one or two hours a day for battery charging and watermaking I originally thought the eutectic plate would be best. I am also installing a KISS windgen which should give periods of high charge when the ASU will top up the plate. BUT Isotherm say that a eutectic plate is not so good for a freezer since the temperature is not so stable. It's also more expensive. SO I am now thinking of going for a simple evaporator. Though this will probably use more electricity, that should not be a problem.
Before I make the call, does anyone have any experience of having used both eutectic plates and evaporators for freezers, and have a view which works best - or whether there is a significant difference?
