Some people find that running the fridge on 120
helps make it easier to light the fridge on propane.

It's my understanding that running the fridge on 120
will cause air to rise up the exhaust which in turn pulls
fresh air into the intake.
This cycle of fresh air can help the flame stay lit
while holding the yellow button down.
