Refrigerator wouldn't work on gas when leaving

The last time I camped,my refrigerator would not work on gas when I got ready to leave. I had camped 4 nites and had used electricity. I was told I have to have a fully charged battery for the gas...

FYI: The refrigerator does require 12V to run the electronics, even when on gas. If you don't disconnect the battery between trips it's a good bet it's dead. There are several parasitic loads that will kill a battery between trips.
