    12 Volt Fridge

    Hi all,
    We are new owners of a 2022 Reflection. The fridge is 12V and is working fine. Last night was our first night and the fridge seems to never shut off. Just wondering if this is normal for these fridges ??

    New 2500RL myself and added a fridge fan to help circulate the air as I noticed freezing on the back side. My seal isn't the greatest as I can move thin paper closed on it but the fan seems to be helping.

    I can’t help with OPs problem but thanks for the link to the fan. We have an older style without an On/Off switch and been wanting to replace it.

    A better question would be......How much battery capacity do you have, in AH and how long did they last? There are literally hundreds and hundreds of different batteries and styles.....Lead Acid, AGM, LiFePO, and others.....and about as many different battery capacities. You have to know that before you can get an idea of what works and what doesn't and for how long.

    I think @jasonPlegrand was asking about the life of the two "D" cells that power the stand along refrigerator fan that he referenced.

    Oops.....after going back and re-reading it, I think you are right. I guess I just assumed that he was talking about how long the battery or batteries for the 12V fridge would last. Thanks for finding that.
