Hey,

I've got one you've never heard before - it's a Norcold question.

I am a proud, 2 month owner of an '87 Westy replacement for my venerable '78 Camper Bus (laid to rest @ 230k).

Anyway, as the family gets excited about more Baja trips, the thought of cold beer haunts me.

I'll make this short - can anyone tell me honestly that this fridge works as well on gas as on AC?

It works fine on AC, and I just finished cleaning the jet and external cooling fins. Still, the gas powered cooling seems pretty weak.

If someone gives me some strand of hope, I will go ahead and add a better fan to the back and a small one to the interior. Maybe even some deflector sheets to channel air over the rear fins.

Anyway, my fingers are crossed.

Thanks, Brendan
