All that just to get it level enough to run the 3-way fridge

Does the fridge have to be level to run??

Yes, level when stationary.

only on LPG,,( buy a small level)

but it has to be stationary to run on LPG anyway,,,

I admit to being totally biased,, ( 95L front opening Engal in Van) but 3 way fridges are, um, difficult. The reason I now have said Engal.

Yep, 3-ways really are dinosaurs. I would never own a caravan or camper with one, now I’ve experienced compressor fridges. So much better in every way

Actually it needs to be level for 240v AC and 12v DC as well due to the way the absorption fridges work.

With the efficiency and availability of solar panels,and the increased efficiency of compresser fridges,they are really a no brainer for most people these days.
