Good to know ...waiting on my delivery...called an rv inspector yesterday to check out my new rig
-
Another advantage of the 12v frig.
-
I I'm think I'm that um you should mention I'm filling the vehicle tank um. Shut the fridge off while reducing, you do not want to take the chance that the pilot light will come on and possibly igniting the gas vapors around the pumps.

My Dometic 110v / propane fridge went 2 months after the warranty. $2400 cdn to replace and install. I replaced it with a $200 110v bar fridge and plug it into my Jackery, plugged into a 12v socket. That way I leave it on and when I arrive at camp the Jackery recharges but if no shore power I have 150watts of solar to recharge battery which in turn tops up the Jackery. No complicated inverter install required. Fridge $200, Jackery $1200. Cheaper than replacement and is cool in 1 hour ready to go.

Ive seen trailers & vehicles burnt to the ground running Propane in Australia. The trailer catches fire & it's too late to disconnect the vehicle. Now with Lithium batterys, DC - DC Chargers with Solar we do Desert trips for a month or so with this setup.

These videos are great! Keep them coming
-
If we are on a short trip, I pack a bunch of ice packs i the fridge for the road. Holds me till i get to the hook ups
-
I travel with the propane turned off and rely on a 12 DC compressor fridge
-
Thanks man 😊
-
I do it (propane) Full timer, so I never shut it off. (Even in NY). If the pilot goes out and still feeds gas, then tried to light...BOOM. #1 reason for camper fires is gas fridge
-
I leave my refrigerator & A/C on 24/7 I have had this 2006 Aspect since 2017. Naturale they are off in tunnels
-
tunnels and gas stations
-
If i pull a multiquip 20Kw generator behind the camper and keep the camper plugged into it while towing, is it a safer option? Last i checked the refrigerator has quite a few safety interlocks. Whats the problem. Your vehicles fuel line could spring a leak at any time and burst into flames. Should we drive them?
-
To run the fridge off the propane do you turn off the propane when getting fuel at the pumps??
-
Go look at any RV junkyard and you'll see RVs where the fridge caught fire going down the road. Just be safe and turn it off.
-
No need to travel with uour propane on. Turn it off and staty out of your fridge it will stay cold 6 to 8 hours. Travel safe. Turn it off. Turn off your propane at your tank.
