I didn't have very good luck with the absorption fridge; it wouldn't get colder than 50F in hot weather. I tried every fan trick I could find on the forum but didn't have any luck. You'll find more people than you would guess have trouble with the small absorption fridges if you search the pop up trailer forums. I replaced mine with a 12V compressor fridge and couldn't be happier with it.

As mentioned earlier, you really need to have a PV array to power the fridge or you won't be happy with your battery life.

P.S. I still have the absorption fridge sitting in the garage, I'll sell it to you for cheap. ;)
