Thanks for all the replies - especially Old Biscuit's - mine does have temp settings 1-5, but I moved the slide up a bit anyway. Everything in the freezer is frozen hard as a rock this morning - running on AC
1. Sliding the Thermister on an adjustable Tstat controlled unit has no affect
2. Sliding the Thermister is for AUTO temp refers. Sliding it will only change the bottom temp by about 4 degrees.
3. RV refers(not side by side models), the FREEZER will get as cold as it gets regardless of Temp setting. The temp setting does not control the freezer temp.
LAST, LP and 120 will cool the refer the SAME. They have the same BTU parameters. LP will start about 5 minutes quicker on a hot refer(it takes about 5 minutes for the 120 element to reach full temp). The factors that change LP and 120 will be 120 LINE VOLTAGE. If low Voltage the refer will not cool as well. If the burner is dirty or the LP pressure below 11.5 inches WC then it will not cool as well on LP. Doug
