Sorry guys, I know this subject has been beat to death but I wanted to get everyone’s input on it. I am debating about a fridge upgrade to a 2 way propane fridge but am starting to see and read some scary stuff pertaining to fires with them. So I’be got a very dependable fridge that I was told by the PO they had put a new high efficient cooling unit and compressor in. Considering the safety of the all electric fridge is there a better way to maintain its running on a off grid situation. Solar panels, small quiet portable generator? It does have a healthy 6k Oman that I had a full work over, new panel and gaskets and seals, carb rebuilt. Only had 300 hrs on it when I bought it but just time had taken its toll. Anyhow it’s healthy.
Just to give some background on this subject matter I’ve been debating with myself on going all in on this motorhome and get it where I want it for long trips to national parks, or just start looking for a good used diesel pusher that’s give a bit more livable space and more umph going up the mountains and the brakes as well. Well in looking I came across some salvage RV that had some fires that did some substantial damage to the skin and substructure of the coach around the fridge. Just got me rethinking on this.
Thanks,
TG
