Subject: FYI - Refridge Propane Use

Prior to taking a vacation recently I lit the refridge in my
van.  I kept
forgetting to switch to battery along the ride, and finally
decided to just
I let it run continuously to see how long it would go - even
when we
returned home after 10 days.  Total running time was exactly 2
weeks to the
hour.  The tank was completely full and I ran it at max. temp
setting most
of the time (80%).  The other 20% of the time the knob was 1/4
turn
decrease.  During the two weeks we cooked 6 meals on the stove.
Otherwise
it was all refrigerator use!
