I just had my first trip out in the new '81. Worked great, the fridge was awesome even in 12V mode. However, I noticed a few things.

1. The flame indicator never went into the green, even thought the pilot was lit, and the fridge was nice and cold.

2. the slider door handle broke off. Is this easily fixed? The latch still works fine, and the inside handle is still working. It looks like there is some piece of metal that connects the handle to the latch mechanism. I will try to take it apart this week and look at it.

Other than that, I had a great time (even tred mountain biking at 3500 feet. Ugh.)
