Refrigerators in the heat
We are camping in extreme heat in Arizona. Is it better to use LP gas or electric to keep the refrigeration cold?

More important is the amount of draft in the flue. It requires a positive airflow to dissipate the heat. The addition of a small computer 12 volt cooling fan will make a significant difference in the cooling in the refrigerator.
You want maximum heat in the flue - they even put a spiral baffle in the flue to slow the airflow and hold the heat in.
Fans are used to increase airflow through the condenser coils.
