Keep in mind that the refer pulls +/- 10 amps on 12VDC. If you plan to use it overnight for 12-14 hours, you will just about drain the batteries to zero... not a good idea.

I recommend you open the trailer, switch to propane, leave the fan running to dissipate the heat. You could leave the trailer up (& lock it up) or fold it down, either way the flame doesn't generate that much heat and the fan is designed to keep the trailer and back of the refer properly ventilated.
