    I suspect that the fridge story is a furphy and grunter is actually after a solution to prevent suffocation or human rights violations from methane and other noxious gas emissions... possibly even spontaneous ignition or detonations

    Thoughts everyone?
    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

    IMO I would have thought a pod would have enough air flow, as in they are not "air tight"
    Maybe a 12 v exhaust fan some where, or a stink pole from PVC pipe that has a "U" at the top
    no rain no dust., As for human rights, what happens in the Pod stays in the Pod I say

    The vents I saw somewhere must be waterproof as well as I'm sure they were forward facing, self draining maybe.

    A spot for the air to get out would be beneficial for replacing warm air off the fridge. One of those things with the flap sounds perfect.

    I will have another go at finding it....

    Just a thought something like this with a 12v computer fan on it to exhaust ant hot air out of the pod.
    I just brought a small 12z fan brushless and it uses .3 ah and moves 35 CFM thats a lot of air from a small fan

    I take it this is only whilst you are travelling.
    Back to Cuppa's post I take it the battery isn't too far from the fridge,
    what connectors have you used??

    For my fridge, I'm just plugging it into the 12v plug/powerboard that comes standard with ex Telstra pods.

    ET, I thought you were my friend! PML. Having said that, I have woken myself up a couple of times by 'the' smell. lol.

    You'll wake everyone up with the smell if you fit vents
