Tobin, you'll hear different opinions on this.  My own is that a fan
made for the purpose is a far superior replacement to any form of
little box fan.  The original fan draws around sixty milliamps (.06
amps) and so does the superior replacement fan from Fridge-Mate,
available from online RV places.  It comes with a built-on
thermoswitch which you should discard (it's meant to be placed in the
uptake above the fridge and the thermoswitch is set accordingly), and
a nice length of wire and a pretty switch that you can use for
something else.  You can easily modify the original bracket to fit it
-- look on my website for a drawing.  It's as quiet or quieter than
the original, and moves more air (I think).  The fan is a bit larger,
so make sure of clearance behind the fridge before you nail everything down.
