So I have I believe is the original or close replacement refridge that had its cooling unit replaced just before I bought the coach 20 years ago, man time flies! I’ve been wanting to do a update on it to allow some boondocking with it for a week or more if needed. I’ve done some research on the topic and am finding that some newer high end RV’s are apparently going all electric. I did find one all electric fridge that could be a replacement that had a 7amp start up and a 1 amp when cooled down power draw. I take it that the swing back to electric is the efficiency of the cooling units along with some solar panel support to recharge. I know this has been debated before but if the more expensive rv units are using all electric now for some benefit over propane I assume. Anybody know why they are going that way?

Thanks,
TG
