This is a "I am wondering" question and not a challenge. When I operated absorbsion refrigerators down here, they would light off and go to High Burner" 24/7
The cooling units never burned out. As a pure emergency measure I did install a mechanical AC refrigerator thermostat with the thermocouple about 6" away from the cooling fins. Being it was 2,000 miles to the border there was little choice in the matter. It lasted as long as I was in the area which was about two and a half months as I recall.
The hazard of cooling unit burnout is something new to me. When I was fighting the Norcold it was almost 30 years ago. Have things changed?
