Hi all,

I have an old 3-way fridge (lpg/240volt/12volt) that I normally just fill with cold food and run off gas once we get to where we're going, just a few hours away. But now I'm planning to head off across the Simpson, out to Ayers Rock, etc etc, and so will be doing a lot of quite long days. My question is - is it okay to us run one of these in the car off 12V while driving along? I know its fine for the compressor-type fridges, but these ones work off a heating element instead. So, are they safe?

Thanks,
Tim Z
