Art, I hope you do alot of camping at plug-in places because trying to run a fridge for extended times will run your battery down pretty quickly. I, for one, really like having the propane fridge for longer no plug-in stops. Some folks opt for ice chests and tough it out with replenishing the ice. Too each his own...
