I run my 2-way fridge on electricity while driving.
My 1200/2000 watt AIMS inverter with Auto-Transfer Switch is “on” and the chassis alternator charges the house batteries when on the move.

When I finally get to a boon-docking destination, I move fridge over to propane.
My Solar charges the house batteries so I can use the inverter to watch TV. And I generally have enough battery power to run my inverter 24/7.

If I’m going to a campground with electrical hook-up, then I never even need to change fridge over to propane.
Once I plug into shore-power, the inverter’s auto transfer switch takes over and fridge remains on 120 volt electric the entire stay.
