    Fridge manual says don't do that, but a short cord will probably be okay. I'll test out a power strip and see how that goes.

    I have a power strip between my inverter and fridge and have never had any problems.

    It looks like my Inverter is wired to my IdleFree APU battery. It still works even if I turn the Freightliner power kill switch, so maybe there is zero concern for the actual truck batteries.

    Anyway, I got a Home Depot fridge and now cooking my 3rd meal.

    i also picked up a fan to put in my window to vent out the smoke. I heard cooking in the truck could leave kitchen odor in the interior.

    That could be good or bad, depending on what you are cooking.
