After reading that Blog I will not be adding a Fan. It only makes sense that since it increases the Air Flow it Could cause the Burner to Overheat the area that Heats the Ammonia and creates Flow. It Could be like adding a Supercharger without worrying about the Compression Ratio.
Our Dometic does a reasonable job but I have noticed that it doesn't do as good a job when it gets Hot. I will be looking into an Awning, it makes sense that if the Air drawn in is Cooler that it Could help the Dometic work better.
I still like Dry-Camping well enough to put up with the idiosyncrasies and our '82 fits me like a glove.
