Re: [A/S] Towing w/LP Gas Fridge Running ?
Dan,
There have been discussions about this heretofore on this list. Those
who are by nature cautious say NEVER DO IT. Others of us are a bit more
open minded about the matter. I, for one, do it all the time. I ALWAYS
run on gas and ALWAYS leave it on. No problems for 50 years... so far. FWIW.
When a fridge is run on 12-volts it REALLY sucks up the juice. However,
if you only leave it on 12-volts while towing, that shouldn't be a
problem if your charge line to the trailer is hooked up correctly.
Absorption reefers are not efficient when run on electricity, either
12-volts or 110-volts. They like gas.
Best regards,
Rik
