Travato refrigerator
Read in one of the posts on the Travato that they were having trouble lighting the refrigerator on propane. Does the fridge not have auto ignition? Is it a two way, or three way fridge? Thanks,...

wincrasher,
I use my fridge in the travato the exact same way as you. THis is my third RV and my first 3 way fridge. Its definately the most efficient in terms of cooling down and staying cold. All of this dead horse beating about fridges was only responding to a negative comment about travato's. I have left my fridge on 12V when parked for an hour (by mistake) and my battery was not completely drained. The only drawback i have found is that if i leave it on propane while traveling the pilot light often goes out( after the fridge has reached temperature and then warms so that the burner needs to go back on). It took some getting used to remembering to switch to 12V while underway but since the LP tank is smaller than on my previous B plus, its efficient to use 12V while on the road. In a perfect world i'd like a danfoss comnpressor fridge and a solar panel so that i don't have to worry about being level and have the advantage of faster cool down than absortion fridges, but everyone has his own prefrences. Meanwhile i am very happy with my purchase
