Subject:Re: Using the fridge as an ice box

Use the fridge on propane ---- you'll love it. FWIW I had a
non-functioning fridge in a loaf (non-Westy) camper. I would seal a block
of ice in two garbage bags and use the fridge as an ice box. It worked OK
--- but a functioning Dometic is so much easier --- and that ice takes up
valuable room.

Cheers,
Doug

        Subject:        Using the fridge as an ice box

I have used the fridge off of DC power and a few times with the AC power
in preperation for a road trip but I have never actually used the propane
option. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has use ever made any
modifications to simply use the fridge as an ice box still utilizing the
convenient shelfs but using ice rather than power. if so, what works the
best?
