I wasn't quite sure if running the fridge on propane while towing was really safe. With our old pop-up camper that was never really needed because we couldn't access the fridge while towing anyways, so it just sat empty until we got to the campground and plugged in or ran it off propane. I did try Googling that question and I got conflicting answers. So I thought that maybe running an inverter would be a good compromise. But of course I would have to redirect the fridge's power to the inverter, or 'back-feed' power from the inverter to the fridge (which is a really bad idea). So this solution starts to get really ugly fast! I agree with KD4UPL's comment about the actual power that you can get to the TT from the TV. I'm sure the wires were not designed to carry a sustained 30A load. So it sounds like propane is the best option. Thanks!
