So what did you do to your Truck Camper today?
I saw these threads in some of the other Open Roads RV Forums, but didn't see one for TCs. I'll start... I installed Interior LED puck lights and a 12v power outlet.

Got into my fridge yesterday and got a couple surprises.
...only one tiny fan installed in the upper vent cavity and it was a cheapo sleeve bearing fan that after a season was getting noisy. Understandbly so, the fan was mounted horizontally, Sleeve bearing fans need to be vertical. It's headed to the lanfill to be replaced with 2 120mm ball bearing case fans. That should improve airflow over the condenser by a lot. A cool condenser means good heat transfer and that means the fridge cools efficiently. Gotta keep that beer cold.
FR did install an upper baffle over the condenser to direct air flow but the tiny fan wasn't flowing much in the first place.
I bet between the twin fans and the added insulation, my fridge will be really cooling this summer.
We will be finding out soon enough.
Cool. Did you get to the fan from the outside compartment?
Yes, I did, from under the upper vent cover which was screwed on. Had to order a roll of butyl tape, no store around here had it, looked at me like I was nuts when I asked for it.
The muffin fans draw very little current so they should not be an issue running on battery power.
I'll test everything before I button it back up to be sure it all operates as it supposed to.
