Installed on Grand Design Reflection 311BHS
I have Norcold 1210T refrigerator that struggles to hold cold at my desired 34-36°F during 90°F+ heat in direct sun. I ordered this fan set and was able to open my top fridge slide out vent panel and drop the remote and power wires down along the wall by flexing the baffle wood panel outward and working the cable to the far left past the the upper fins. I made sure to keep a hand on the fan power plug so that I did not drop it down as the fans are to be mounted on the top and blowing out of the panel.Once I got over to the far left, I was able to start working down by sort of bouncing the wires along with the remote used as a pendulum weight while my wife was below watching for success. Once I got the power/ground wires and remote down and she worked it all out the lower vent area, I simply needed to T-Tap into any two of the labeled 12V+/12V- wire pairs. I used the thermal safety switch (a recall add on for you guys with older 1210 fridges), T-Tapped on and connected the fan's power and ground and immediately was able to test that the wired remote had power. All good.Then I went up top again and used an oscillating tool to remove a large portion of the upper wood baffle panel so that the fans could sit back enough to re-install the upper vent panel. The fans themselves are hanging from the 2 upper clips on the fan assembly, the bottom is not attached. It is simply hanging there. So for going on the road, I will just go up and unplug ad remove the fans and tie the wire harness up so that it does not fall. It will take 2 minutes to remove. I guess if I cared, I could zip-tie the fans to the vent panel, but its not a big deal to me. You decide how you want to handle that.I wrapped the thermal sensor wire around the big round cylinder thing that is easily accessed in the lower panel, I made sure to wrap 3 turns with the end of the thermostat wire folded under the triple wrap and tucked under as I pulled it tight. This has been working perfectly and the fans come on quickly after the propane kicks on the heat the ammonia. I have been using the auto setting and I am holding tight on 32-34 degrees on setting 7 of 9 while in direct sun. I am happy to see my freezer box finally holding single digits with ease as well. I am seeing 4°F to 10°F in the freezer. I did not attempt to run the remote inside the camper body to the kitchen area, instead I tucked it on the left side of the outside lower vent where I dropped the harness down and can easily access it there is desired.I use the Amazon sourced fridge/freezer remote thermometer kit titled "AcuRite Digital Wireless Fridge and Freezer Thermometer with Alarm and Max/Min Temperature for Home" and it works flawlessly and we both love it. I bought it April of 2021 and have replaced the AA batteries 1 time. I do use Amazon Basics batteries and have had very good luck with them. I recommend that you check them out.Overall, I am very happy with this fan kit and would buy it again. I wish that the bracket kit were more adaptable to be capable of securing to my unique vent covers. But the ease of install and performance of the fans has me happy.

Easy to install
Due to a lengthy breakdown in west Texas during the late spring/early summer of our pickup truck that tows our 5th wheel I found that our rv fridge would not stay cold enough due to outside temps in the upper 90s to low 100s. I installed the fan and it helped keep my fridge temps from going no higher than 45 during the hottest part of the day. At 7 am I would find the fridge temp in the low 30s and as I said it would only climb to a high of 45 with an outdoor temp of 100. I am glad that I installed the fans. The fan was easy to install. It comes with mounting hardware for various types of fridge vent covers. I found that I needed to remove the pre-mounted hardware so the fan would mount flush to the inside of my fridge vent cover. With the hardware removed I used thin zip ties fed through the corner holes to feed through the fridge vent cover and hold the fan assembly firmly to the inside of the cover. Then I found the 12 volt power supply to the fridge and attached the wires powering the fans. The fans will come on when you attach to 12 volts. Then I set the adjustable fan speed on the wired remote control to the highest setting. There is no on/off switch on the remote. The installation instructions would have you drill a hole through from the outside of the rv to the inside to pass the wire from the remote from inside to outside so that the remote can be mounted inside near the fridge and the quick connect end would be outside near the fridge vent to connect to the fans. This allows you to control the fan speed from inside. I chose to not drill a hole as it would not have been easy to do in my case so I mounted the remote in the area of the fans near the back of the fridge.

Works well, but many considerations not mentioned in sales pitch
Had this recommended to me for my RV (Roadtrek van). Purchased this 2 fan unit from Amazon. Priced well. Arrived in timely manner. Out of the box, I was concerned that the wires coming out of the remote control unit weren't properly constructed (see picture showing exposed inner wires), but after several back and fourths with Titan (they were responsive) I decided to use it because although none of their reps specifically stated that that was how they are supposed to look, they did say it was OK. From the sales videos, it looked easy to install, etc. However, when I got down to it, it was immediately apparent that my external grill would not work with the provided mounting system. Not a big deal, as four zip ties did the trick easily. Then, I discovered that by installing the fan in the center of the grill (as they did in their videos), the cover would not fit back on to the van because the gas pipes were in the way. Again, not a big deal, just had to shift it over to the right 4 inches. The hardest part was installing the remote control unit into the van. There was plenty of wire length, but I ended up having to remove the fridge in order to snake the wires through, as well as get the recommended placement of the temp sensor at 1" above the evaporator. Much more work than I originally envisioned! At the end of the day, this unit is working as it is supposed to. I left the van fridge on with LP overnight (in Florida), and the unit cooled down in just over 14 hours, which is much much better than in the past. I believe this will help a lot going forward. One last thing, is that they also make custom 3 and 4 fan versions of this solution, but that was not readily apparent to me on the Amazon site. I might've purchased a three fan model had I known, becasue down here in Florida, my van fridge needs all the help it can get!
