Bad advice and even irresponsible.
Installing fans and wires in either end of heat vent violates fire safety codes. You can't (well you can but you shouldn't) run electric wires inside heat vents and duct works.
If wire insulation catches fire, and blower is running, you are creating a blow torch.
Unless you use specially insulated wires which are fire retardant/fire rated.
This item is not even available for the general consumer, let alone RVs.
They are mostly available for fabricating furnaces, stoves and jet engines.
