Wow, thanks for all the fast replies - this forum is awesome!
I am at work now and hope it will keep cooling down throughout the day. I guess I may have been expecting it to cool faster but it's good to know that it may take longer than my house fridge. I do have the thermistor up about 75-80% of the way up that last fin and will adjust accordingly once things cool down.
Thanks again for all the fast replies and I'll post up once I have a chance to check the temps again.
Moving the thermistor will only affect cooling IF you have a fridge that does NOT have an adjustable temp control on upper panel.
Moving it will only cause a 4*-6*F change in overall temps.
Is RV LEVEL?
Absorption fridges need to be reasonably level to function properly.
Off level operation will disrupt the gravity flow of coolant which will cause overheating of coolant which will cause the anti-rust inhibitor to crystallize and plate out on inside of cooling tubes. It is accumulative and permanent damage.
Absorption fridges require time to initially cool down. Freezer cools down first then food section.
