Hi John, I just spent roughly two weeks on the go on less than one tankful of propane. The fridge ran approx. 20 hrs. a day on propane and 4 hrs. on 12 volt. On average I used the burners for 1 to 2 meals a day. Still haven't filled it up and it even made ice cubes for evening libations. Hope that helps....Harry (85 Westy) ------------- Original Text

The Campmobile owners guide that I got from the previous owner does not have any mention of how to tell how much propane you have left. I don't see anything that looks like a guage anywhere near the tank. Is there some way to tell how much you have or do you just stop at a propane station every so often and have them fill it up.

A related question. Assuming that the temperature is in the 70-80 range, how many days can you run the refrig on a tank of propane. I know there are lots of variables, but just a ball park number is fine ( < 2 days, about a week, ...)
