I always light my fridge the evening before we leave so it's nice and cold when I put the food in it before we leave.

The hot fridge sucked all of the cold out of the food to equalize the temp and it took forever to get everything cold again. I recognize your name from Pirate, I'm Crashnzuk on there. Good luck with the maiden voyage.

I wondered how long it would be before I ran into another pirate over here. :D


So, if I have it plugged into the house overnight tonight, what do I do while I'm at work? My truck is my daily driver and I won't have time to load it after work before we leave. Should I run on propane while at work?

Yep...the fridge uses very little propane...I can run all summer on one tank with the fridge and water heater...

Good luck, B

On the Dodge the battery charge line is Hot all the time......so if plugged in the rv can drain truck battery IF you do not have 110V AC power plugged in also

Fridge needs good source of 12V DC to operate whether on AC power or on propane (operates the control circuits)

Fridge needs several hours to cool down properly........so turn it ON now if you haven't already done so.

That is provided the rv is level......fridges don't cool properly if off level and they can be damaged (clogged) if operated off level....even one time. The damage is accumulative.
