Any absorption fridges that do not require 12 volts to run?

I had a 5 cu ft Dometic RM 2510 that only required 12V to fire the ignitor, not to run. There are similar size models that use a push button piezoelectric ignitor that require no 12V at all - saw one in a 2010 Scamp 16, but didn't check the model #.

Coolmom beet me to it- they are available, though not built in.

The Mennonites around my area have big propane freezers and fridges without 12V (unless it is built in somehow not obvious?). You might investigate what they or some of the Amish use.

Out of curiosity I dug around and found this web site that sells all manner of propane refrigeration:

Lehman's

The brochure for the Diamond brand shows no input or location for a control board, so it doesn't appear to need 12V. But it does use 9V batteries for the LED interior lights.

The smaller units in pups don't require 12 volts to run. This limits you to about 2.5 cu ft.

But if the pilot light blows out......you're screwed if you don't notice.
