Norcold N841 for '86 PT-40
The third dimension, depth. whats behind the lower drawer? Then
path for unburnt lpg fuel., notice the vents open lower than the
refer floor for unspent fuel (which is heavy) to escape out of the
bus. Contrary to all the active cooling mods we do with the bus
refers, venting by design are more efficient when passive. wont be
long befor Kurt, Curt or someone designs and runs their refer off
the aquahot or detroit radiator. you may want to redesign venting as
per the new refer install instructions.

not motivated to do the test myself (my refer works) but wonder how
long your inverter/battery setup could support a green compressor
style $300.refer. might be some advantage to updating the
invert/battery with that $aved if a test proved your need could be
served inverter way.

3way? I never use it, We have them in 2 seed labs and I always
feared the battery drain so never powered it off 12V. I guess it
would serve purpose while driving as the Detroit alt would be the
fuel? I think they draw amps like a diesel start preheat??
