[surfmachine]

Avast! My Engel died the first day I got to Sumatra!! The compressor swing motor has a dead short in it, and it used heaps of power when the temp was 38C!!! Would not freeze, only cool. A low capacity unit.
Had a danfoss bd35 in the old boat, would freeze in 15 minutes and ran off of the 150 watt solar panels, no need to charge the batteries with the motor.

Going to put the bd50 and a small vertical freezer/evaporator in when I return to Langkawi, costs a lot, but it WORKS!!!! in the tropics and makes ice cubes and I can make ice cream when the surf drops?
Cheers from Keith.
