Running your propane Refrigerators while traveling?

I've heard that running your Fridg on gas while traveling is dangerous. They say it can start fires.

So...What do you do?

  • It's similar to the question about leaving the propane on while traveling. I used to be worried about that but in many years of reading these posts I have yet to read about a fire started by leaving the propane on.
  • Please explain your source that said it was dangerous. I’ve been doing it for years.
  • We don't want the food to spoil or the ice to melt. It's a tiny flame. I'd stay away from the people who say it's dangerous.
