is it worth getting a fridge with 240v as well as 12V ?

Looking at the Vitri fridges, like the C85I here .  I would connect to my 12V battery system, which would be charged by Solar / Alternator / 240V. 

Question:  Given this, is there any reason to get the Fridge itself with a 240V input as well as 12V?   I'm assuming no, but just checking?  

I see the Vitri website mentions "Power: 12/24Vdc (also available with dual electronic box 12/24Vdc - 100-240Vac 50/60Hz)"

Hi Mixedup

 

That would be one of the options

some people just use an 240 volt inverter fridge with an small power inverter

 

Cheers John
