For the uneducated, what's wrong with it?

Watt and volt are two different measures for electricity. Also your fridge will not work when hooked up to a car battery for many other technical reasons, including differ t voltages, and current types (AC/CD, not the band)

Unless you have an EV with V2L.

Sure you can use the 12v battery and convert that power but you can’t just connect a 12v battery and expect it to work.

You stated that you cant connect a car battery to a fridge. You said nothing in your comment about 12v. I can connect my car battery to my fridge no problem.

You can but it won’t keep your fridge cold. (Unless you use an inverter and you would need to check the amps needed by the fridge when the pump is on and see if your battery and inverter can provide that.)

As i stated I have V2L on my car. I also have normal outlets inside the car.
