I thought about it but we found the heat from the fridge running was just
enough to take the edge off those early or late season cold
mornings/evenings so I have not, yet.  Bear in mind that I am in Alaska so
our idea of hot camping weather may be different than yours, at least until
this year anyway.  We have had a warmer than usual summer this year though
it hasn't mattered as I have to pull and repair the fridge before it can
become an issue for us.
