Refrigerator Cooling, Propane vs. Electric
Question about refrigerator cooling during preparation for a trip. Does it cool faster when plugged into electric (in my driveway) or just leaving the propane on and cooling that way? Thanks for any ...

Different manufacturers use different elements, but generally propane burner is the most powerful, AC element is 2nd and 12V element is the smallest.
Don't think the difference is a major, so at home I prefer to cool it down using 120V starting night, or day before and use 12V or invented 120 on the road.
Even there is nothing wrong with running propane while on the road, it is just too easy to forget about turning everything off entering the gas station. Tunnels is other issue.
My 12V element takes 16 amp, what is nothing for 120 amp alternator.
