Now I always travel with refer on propane and it seems to cool better than when on electric, at least for my fridge.

At least at first. I've read some have had trouble with the burner blowing out while driving. Has never been a problem for us. We've run out in the house, but the RV has two. Damon Challenger.

He just said of course you can leave it on. I hadn't thought about the part about turning it off when gassing up.

He had just come from the fueling station. Now I turn it off. "Whenever you find that you are on the side of the majority, it is time to reform."

Once I unplug from the power pole my frig switches over to propane. If the generator is turned on it switches over to AC. Propane is always available as I travel.
