I have been thinking about getting a solar panel to keep a fridge
runnning and keep a battery charged while camping.


It'll have to be a *big* (expensive) photovoltaic panel to run a fridge
even under bright sunlight conditions.

Not a caravan fridge!


Also, caravan fridges are often adsorption or peltier mechanism


And usually can be run of gas as well as electricity.
