Experiments have been completed in my objective of fitting a fan to my 60l Trailblazer. Would like to thank all those who put there 2 bobs worth in - especially stephen (WA) for finding correct wiring points, and put to rest those who did not beleive or think it was worthwhile.

Re : Post 20811 - I tested the fridge without fan amb. temp. outside 32 fridge 28, -2 hrs and 55mins later - fridge 0. With fan, amb. temp. 33 fridge 29, - 1hr and 27mins later - fridge 0.

Given that the fridge would draw approx. 4 amphr and fan approx. 1/2 amphr. - the maths looks good for me when drawing of battery power, when it halfs the power consumption!!! This test wasnt about getting the fridge colder, - it does that great by itself being a Trailblazer and all, it was about making it run more efficent when camping on limited battery power without starting the geny a night earlier!!

Enough said.....milo...
