The obvious downside on an inverter is battery draw and hooking it up (chasing the wires etc). Not knocking it, but some may want to use the LP. I thought about an inverter and then I thought, "why bother?". It works fine the way it is.
Can you cite some incidences where the LP fridge blew up a gas station?
And obviously if your worried about it, turn it off while fueling. Problem solved.
Man the doom and gloom on here sometimes about simple questions.
You are right that statistics about gas station blew due to RV refrigerator are not available, but that does not mean it did not happen.
Than even if it did not happen, do you want to take your chances to be one in a million statistic?
Than the net is full of pictures of motorhomes burned down to the ground due the open propane valve during flat, or accident.
You might not bother to care about your safety, but forbidding sparks and open flame around the pumps is fueling stations rule.
