Engel Fridge/Freezer Combi Units

I'm considering purchasing a Fridge/Freezer Combi Unit to keep my bait frozen and my lunch cold. These units will freeze water to -18C and operate on a 30 degree incline and they claim to have a relatively low power draw. It would run off shore power and just have to maintain the temperature during a day of fishing. Does anyone have a similair unit? I am interested in the real life battery draw and if a 9.9 kicker puts out enough amperage to maintain the battery charge?

I can tell you that after having Dometic fridge/freezer units that the latest NovaKool unit we have in our RV sips DC. It is such a low draw that we don’t panic to turn it off like we used to with the Dometics... Even the solar we have keeps it running when strictly on DC. NovaKool is in the Lower Mainland. I have seen their products for sale at different marine stores such as Harbour Chandler in Nanaimo. They even make a ‘kit’ so you can insulate your own space and make it into a fridge. Just a fwiw.
