Topic: Frig operation while rolling Posted: 09 Aug 2023 at 2:09pm |
Just picked up a slightly used 2022 R-Pod 202. Only 4 previous outings on it.
It has the 110 watt solar package. AC/Gas refrigerator. SUPER clean Newbie question: If we are properly rolling down the road, does the fridg (If it is set to gas or auto?) continue to run off the LP tank until we connect it to an AC power source? (Chillin while Rollin)

Generally the refer should be switched to "auto" to run off gas if off shore power.

We ran our fridge on "auto" in our 172 while on the road and while camped. Only rarely did we ever go any place that had electricity to plug into. The same is true with our Sonoma, however, in New England, the dearth of National Forests here means using more private campgrounds where there is often electricity available, but no geezer pass prices. I am not aware of any reason not to travel with the setting on "auto."

I've noticed that state parks/campgrounds may have discounts, but they are limited to the residents of that state. No Veteran's discounts unless one is also a resident of that state.

I stay at one state park that charges less if your a resident. It's 34 dollars a night with water and elec if you are an in stater. Out of staters pay 76.00. The place is super hard to get into, and it's at least half way full of out of staters.
