Can Propane Be Used To Power An Everchill 12v RV Fridge

Question:
I have an Everchill 12v fridge 10 cubic ft but it draws down my two batteries when dry camping. Is there a way to add propane after market? Is there a away to use less battery?

Expert Reply:
The Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer # 324-000119 only runs off of 12v DC power so you wouldn't be able to power it with propane. The fridge will draw more power if the temperature is hotter and depending on how many times/how long you have the door of the fridge open for. If you open the door less and keep the camper cooler the fridge won't draw as much power.
The only other thing you could do would be to run a generator for a bit during the day to recharge your trailer's batteries so that you won't run too low.
