I have a Dometic 2 door 3way fridge with AES. When set on gas operation there is a warning LED if gas flow is extinguished (bottle empty).

Chromecast
(Preview)
Does anyone have experience with using Chromecast on 12v tv when off grid? I would like to use the USB port for power, but my research seems to suggest that I would need a 'power usb' port. I think the tv usb port is 5v and the Chromecast is 5v - but is that enough to power the Chromecast?

I have just fixed a solo lady traveller's door latch on her Jayco poptop where the "tongue" had snapped off _ reckon poor design, but maybe so designed so that if anyone tries to lever open the door the tongue will break and prevent further damage.
