Hi Neil, I did all the mods to my Dometic that I could find: new fan on the rear fins, internal air-stirring fan, another fan to exhaust hot air out the side of the van. The burner always lit quickly, never blew out. The best the refrigerator could ever pull was a 40F differential between ambient and internal temp. With 27C (80F) outside, I would find 40F inside. -- Mike "Rocket J Squirrel" Elliott 71 Type 2: the Wonderbus 84 Westfalia: Mellow Yellow ("The Electrical Banana") 74 Utility Trailer.
