Planning on boondocking and have a residential refrigerator and no generator and one 12v battery. Will battery last the night? We do have 1000wt solar panel that the refrigerator is connected to. Don’t want to run out of battery so we can’t put slides in.
I have a 2020 Cherokee Wolf Pup16FQ, purchased used, so no warranty. Owned for 9 months, used 3 times for 3 nighs each time- always on shore power. Has Furrion 12 volt only refrigerator. The freezer never gets below 24 degrees and the refrigerator never gets below 48 degrees. And a heavy...
The new frig is working great. My question is when I storage has anyone seen any special solution for latching doors open. I have always had the propane frig and they had latches. Thanks

Have been on 1 short weekend trip and trying to learn about our Toyhauler, WITHOUT a manual.
I HAVE learned that it isn't unusual for our refrigerator to take 6-8 hours to get cold. That IS, when hooked-up to "shore...
I saw this statement in a Forest River FB group. Is there an ignition off/on timeout for the refrigerator when driving with it on propane ?

Hi, I have a 2021 Forester River Forester with a 12volt 10.7 cubic refrigerator. The door moves up and down on the hinge causing the refrigerator to run constantly and not stay cool. I have a feeling there is a part missing from the hinge. Where can I find a parts manual? I do have an...

Is it Just Me? Compressor Refrigerator/Freezers
Am I the only person who thinks residential 120VAC and 12VDC refrigerators are the worst thing to happen to RVs?
Just take a look at all of the posts here about everything people have to worry about and go through to use these things — all of the...
I have a dual mode fridge with the On, Auto and Gas Button. (Standard as I’ve seen searching these forums.
Fridge works well on shore power.
On gas, it will cycle three times and then the “Attn” light will light up. IE - it doesn’t work on Gas.
I’ve tried some of the suggestions I’ve...

I discuss here my experience with my RV’s 12 volt General Electric 9.8 cubic foot refrigerator/freezer, model # GPV10FSNBSB. I also describe a test running the refrigerator on battery power in a controlled setting.
First, some background. My dealer had told me that Cherokee previously...
Hello. I am trying to figure out posting on a forum so if this is wrong my apologies.
My question is this. I bought a new 2608 with the 12 v fridge. I brought it home and decided to test the cooling ability at home running off of 2 deep cycles batteries with the 190 watt solar. It is in the...
Ann and I are at the build sheet stage and need to make a decision on the standard 3 cubic ft. vs optional 4 cubic ft. refrigerator. We would love to hear from the folks that actually own a 17B with the 4 cubic foot refrigerator. How has that worked out for you? Photos would be great as they...
I'm installing a fans with a remote control in my refrigerator roof vent to help with the heat transfer. I need power for the fans and a place to mount the controller. I would love to mount the controller above the refrigerator control panel (see pic) or somewhere in the rig nearby the frig...
Our Dometic Refrigerator DMR 702 works perfectly on electric. We can also start it on gas and it will run and reach the coolness setting, but then the LP and (one) coolness setting light start flashing and it will not re-light.
To maintain coolness, my only option is to switch to electric...
We have a new 2021 Leprechaun Motorhome. This past weekend I tried to run the 12 volt refrigerator on battery (our refrigerator is only 12 volt, no propane, no 120 volt). Got home Tuesday night, leveled up, did not connect shore power, left refrigerator running since it was late. 10:30 at...

We placed our new Indel Webasto Isotherm Cruise 195 INOX refrigerator/freezer into our 19' trailer.
First, the Isotherm model 1195BB7NK0000 fit right thru the door. The original ETI-installed Dometic DM2663 requires a major effort to remove.
Looks really nice from the front. We are deciding...
I have a 2021 Rockwood HW 296. I am not sure what brand refrigerator I have. I am wondering how long a warm un-started refrigerator usually takes to get to acceptable refrigerator temperature.

Hi. I just got the 2021 Wolf Pup 16 BHS and I understand the outside fridge only works with shore power. My question is on the big fridge inside and I was told by the dealership it doesn’t work with propane. Before I get to shore power, will it turn on if I’m towing it on the road? Or does it...
Glad to be a new member of the forum, and I have to start right out with a question.
We have a new Kodiak Cub and it has a N7VRM6 Norcold fridge that runs only on gas. I wanted to set the temp of the fridge and/or freezer, but don't see any controls anywhere. On the front there is only the...
