Hi Doug, Just did that on an extended trip. Dry ice will only last for a couple of days. Do have a generator and an inverter big enough to power the frig? If so, run the frig on inverter power until 10 PM and then shut it OFF for 8 hours. Everything will stay cold and your ice won't even begin to melt. Just make sure you don't open the refrigerator door after 9 PM. If you bring the house batteries up to at least 85% by 9 PM, run on the inverter for an hour and then shut the inverter off and the frig off, you will have 75% or more in the morning. Bob
