Proud new owner of a Flagstaff 826MBR TT, 3 weeks old. Took it to local campground last week to set it up, acclimate and move things into it.(Just downsized from a 5th wheel, our 1st TT!) Anyway, love this thing! It has solar panel setup, 200 watt. I went out to organize things today where it's...
Hi folks,
I am considering the purchase of a new Forest River Surveyor Legend 19RBLE. Seems like a very nice unit but......it only comes with a 10cu ft 12V DC operated fridge. The type of camping we do is boondocking in a public campground w/o shore hookups for ~10 day periods at a time. I am...
I have a Salem / Wildwood 27 RK with the outside mini-fridge. IMHO it is relatively worthless unless you are at a site for several days.
I am considering replacing it with a mini-freezer that I could run off a 12VDC to 120VAC inverter. I figure that I would have to put an additional battery...
Hi all. I have a 2012 Escape 19 with the Dometic RM 2510, 5 cubic foot refrigerator.
The cooling unit has almost failed. The problem is they no longer make that refrigerator, and I cannot find any new replacement that will fit through my door. Or fit the cabinets, though that is less of a...
I have a 2015 Sanibel that has a residential refrigerator that quits like a loss of power. This happens whither I have inverter switch on or off. The fifth wheel is tied to ac power at all times. Then refrigerator comes back on and runs then goes back out. The RV has not been moved in 6...
Shouldn’t my refrigerator fans in the chimney run when I’m not on house power ? Like off the battereries maybe ? I took my rig off house power today to charge the battery because it would not start, then out of curiosity went to check the fans and nothing
I got hooked up at the camp site. 50 amp connected. Did some chores. Notice the refrigerator is not on! Breakers look good. How to get to the outlet it plugs into? I went back on inverter and also no joy. All else seems good.
I recently purchased a 2022 Microlite FBLS and we love it. However, on the first trip the refrigerator lock failed causing both the freezer and the refrigerator doors to open and the contents spilled all over the floor. Including a dozen eggs, juice, etc. In a brand new, maiden voyage, RV. So I...
Just bought a new PALOMINO SOLAIRE 294DBHS with a GE 12 V refrigerator I do a lot of Boondocking looking for advice how to keep this running why I’m Boondocking The trailer came with a regular deep cell RV group 24 battery doesn’t seem to be keeping the refrigerator running and advice would...
I have a Dometic RM2554 three way refrigerator. Just finished a 4 week trip using DC mode while towing, AC mode when on shore power, and gas when off grid. No problems including extreme heat in western state. Except, one occasion found the fridge defrosting when on shore power. I went to gas...
Question for you guys that have the residential refrigerator with inverter/solar package, can you make it all weekend without the batteries dying? This last trip ours didn’t even make it 36hrs and it’s just me and the wife.
We recently purchased a 2016 Forest River 26FKWS. Everything was working. A recent power outage during a thunder storm and now the fridge only works on lp. I have checked everything I can think of but I feel it is probably something sime. We are stl getting acquainted with the camper. What am I...
Morning,
We have a 2107 Georgetown 364ts with a full size refrigerator that runs on electricity only(120v). Our inverter/converter is the Samlex 2000W.
While driving should the battery disconnect be in the "on" position so that the refrigerator stays cool? This is the only way we could keep the...
Hello from Vacationland! (Maine) Newbie to RV’ing!
We just purchased a 2022 Palomino Solaire 208SS. Was noticing the fridge is not cooling but freezer is working fine. Called my service department where we bought the trailer. Got the same old line “it takes forever, switch to gas, etc. Had their...
Hi I have a 1998 24 D and I’m installing new refrigerator external vent fans and would like to know what’s the best sealant to use on the vent grill. It was very hard to get off due to the rubber sealant used but also wasn’t sealed all that good either. I’d like to find a better way to seal this...
We use our camper a few weeks a year and a few weekends too.
Typically, the fridge runs ALL THE TIME and the fan motor is very loud, to the point that I have wondered in the past if it is defective.
The refrigerator stopped working at least twice that we noticed, when we were plugged in this...
So the 1st picture is the back side, or inside of my refrigerator vent cover. The second and third pictures are the vent fan I purchased to hopefully help with my refrigerator to start acting more like a refrigerator :mad: I got a few questions here. Should the air be blowing in ( I think...
All,
I have read some complaints regarding the 10.7 Cu. ft. 12V refrigerator.
How has your experience been with these fridges in a sunseeker/forester Class C? specifically the 3010DS.
Thanks,
Scott
We have a 2016 Rockwood 2304DS with a Dometic DRM 702 refrigerator. It always seems to have trouble maintaining temperature. On our last camping trip (on propane) the refrigerator section (on the coldest setting) got to 25 degrees F. So I moved the three cooling option setting to #1 (least...
I have a 2018 Grey Wolf 27RR (Toy Hauler). On our recent trip the refrigerator would not work when hooked up to propane with fully charged batteries. The light on the fridge would turn red indicating that the refrigerator was not getting gas. I check the gas line and that is not the problem as...
Check light on refrigerator when hooked to shore power. Refrigerator cools and makes ice. No water out the external drain tube. Checked power pole, good. Checked batteries; fully charged were down to 11.2 volts. Mobile RV tech said low voltage to refrigerator and refrigerator was pulling current...
Hi Folks,
I have a FR Sabre, 32' that came with a residential refrigerator. I have a battery bank of 4 x 6V AGM batteries, equivalent to 225 Amps at 50% capacity. We mostly (95% of the time) are boondocking.
The issue I have is that the refrigerator runs about 35% of the time (I have a...
Hi y’all, we’re new to this residential type refrigerator with dedicated inverter, so please bare with me.😄
We lost power at the park and the refrigerator stopped running. It didn’t run off of the solar power or 12v battery, which is how we were told it works. Please correct me if I’m wrong?☹️...
