Not truly Vanagon-related except in a camping/Dometic refrigerator kind
of way.

I'm considering getting a Dometic RC2000 portable refrigerator to take
on camping trips where getting ice for a cooler is difficult and Mrs
Elliott's pillows of fresh salad greens and produce totally overload the
little onboard refrigerator.

The RC2000 is smallish, portable, top-loading three-way 120V/12V/propane
design like the standard RM182 model found in the Westfalia. On 12V it
pulls 7A so its propane fuel consumption is probably about the same as
the RM182.

The manual* says that the burner is fitted with a "jet No. 21" suitable
for propane at 11 water inches pressure.

It is intended to be connected to a small propane bottle, like the
standard 16.4 oz bottle.

Any rough guesses about how long a bottle would run the reefer?
