The freezer and fridge thermostats never did a good job at keeping the temperatures steady in my Passage 42. The fridge would freeze food even on the lowest setting (not to mention it used a lot of unnecessary energy). I found a $15 solution with an Inkbird 12V Dual-Stage Temperature Controller.

For the installation, I leveraged the original thermostat wires making it easy to convert back to the original system if needed. I now can digitally dial in the desired temperature, variance and compressor delay. This gives the ability to make the freezer into an additional fridge if needed. Net/net this project was time and money well spent and is saving a lot of battery amps.
