Seeking Advice on Operating a Dometic Portable Fridge

Hello, everyone!

I have a Dometic RC-1180 3-way fridge on layby and there are a couple of things I would like to know before I get it. I have never posted here before, but have visited quite a number of times and found the ExplorOz forum an invaluable source of information, so I am sure someone here can help me. Firstly, what kind of regulator do I need? I know there are at least two kinds of fitting (POL and 3/8 inch), but what about pressure? Camping stores seem to sell one standard type of regulator with one of two fittings; will these do the job or am I going to have to go hunt for some specialist item? The other thing I’m wondering about is where to put fridge at my campsite. I figure I could put it on a decent fridge stand under the awning of my Turbo Tent. I already have a side panel but with a front panel and some clever positioning of the tent I could keep the fridge under cover, shaded from the sun, and reasonably dry. This seems the logical thing to do, but is there a better way to do things?

Cheers, Eric Praline
