Plugged in 24/7, but with the refer off if not going back out soon...why run it?
As for the inverter, I never plug mine in unless it will be used. Had a recent experience in a CG hooked to 50 amp power. Woke up in the middle of the night and noticed the digital clock next to the bed was off. Sat up and looked at the residential refer...it's always lit with the temp on the front....it was dark. Bottom line....no power. Had the inverter been on, it would have picked up the load and all items on the inverter circuit would have come on. When we awoke, we still would not have known the power was running on the inverter unless I specifically checked the gauges. Our first indication of no shore power would have been when everything quit running...and the batteries would have been all dead.
