Its been almost a year since I started the build, my how time flys. I 've started building the front cabinet and started testing my LED lights, I think I'll have two reading lights under the cabinet then small LED red and white in the cabinets as accent lights. Still deciding if I will go with a LED dome light, but if I do it will be a 5. 5 inch with a white / red combo light. Also thinking of LED porch lights from SoCal Teardrops. I did a test of running my fridge and 4 LED and 2 reading lights for 24 hours using a PC 1230 Odyssey battery, the fridge was set at 29 degrees F. with a outdoor air temp around 80 degrees average, The battery had 13.33 volts when I started the test and when it ended 24 hours later the battery had 12.20 volts.
