2008 keystone passport 285rl fridge
I won't have AC electric avail where I am taking my camper... Do I need any source of power for my fridge to run off propane? Also how many days would a propane bottle last if fridge was kept shut...

Nice trailer but you didn't provide ANY info about fridge...brand/model?
Being a 2008 generic info is:
Fridge is electric/propane
Place it in 'Auto' mode..it runs on 120V AC when available
No 120V AC then it swaps to 'Gas' operation
Whether on 120V AC or on 'GAS' fridge needs 12V DC Power for control module, interior light, display panel and propane operation.
Your trailer has Two 20# propane cylinders so if full you will not run out of propane for LONG time. Fridge could operate for weeks on the propane.
Limiting factor will be DC Power.
One 12V Battery........good for maybe 3-4 days until DC Voltage is too low.
Not only fridge DC demand but their are parasitic drains on battery
