  My understanding is that it’s impossible to properly vent a propane fridge in a clamshell. Why do you want to do this? What’s the problem you’re trying to solve?

  Well it seems propane is less draw on the batteries, We have a 22 320 CS-S Boondock but no Lithium (Yet) Until I get it better set up to run longer on a 12 volts. I do have Bluetti 200 watt solar panels but for some reason I don't see an external plug to plug the panel in. We almost never go to campgrounds so I need to keep an eye on the batteries. The fridge that comes in the clamshell is almost a laugh for how much it will hold. We do have a 12V ARB 72 qt fridge that we keep in the Jeep with a Bluetti power station.

  Especially since you already have a very efficient ARB cooler, do the lithium upgrade instead of the propane/3 way route.  No regrets.  You can hook up an external 12 V port to plug in the ARB.  Is it a Norcold or newer 12 V frig in the galley?

  You are right about a 3-way on propane when boondocking not drawing much from the batteries. But fortunately, a lithium upgrade is much cheaper then it used to be. And that upgrade would be much cheaper then rebuilding a CS for a 3-way. You can connect solar cells directly to your battery (s)
