Will address this issue.

My question to fellow 31W owners, are you happy with your rig, any common issues I should be looking out for? We love ours, just want to hear from others!
We purchased our Quantum WS31 in April. Yes, it has the resi fridge also. I had two 6v batteries installed hoping that would cure our battery issues, it didn't. After dry camping with ours two nights, I would say get the fridge as cold as possible and turn it of when going to bed. That way the low battery alarm won't be waking you at 2:30am like ours did.
I would also say, stay with 12v batteries IF you think you may (I did) go to four batteries. Four 6v batteries are not made to fit our battery tray. They are too tall to go under the step in the back of the tray. I had to do some extensive modifying under there to get four 6v batteries in there.
