Refrig while traveling

Good posts all! A couple of things i would like to comment on. First, with "mordern" appliances in our RV s, there are no pilot lites! The stove fridge and hot water heater all ignite with an electronic starter when they are activated, so there are no standing pilot lights to worry about . You can safely drive down the road with the fridge on. If for some reason the device fails to light, the gas will be shut off before any build up. BUT, at the gas pump, that could be a differant story. Gasoline vapors could find there way to the appliance just when the device lights up, and boom! Chances are slim that this would happen to you, but it could, remember to stop before entering the pump area and turn off any propane appliances. You can turn them on after you have left the pump area!

Yes, they are started with an electronic spark BUT once they are running are they not a "flame" just like a pilot light? And therefor a source of ignition at any time, not just at start up?
