Roof mounted AC fan function please help

Hello everyone I'm the proud new owner of a Jayflight 24fbs. This is my first trailer I have owned. My fan function on my ac unit used to run with my propane bottles open. Now it only runs with the trailer plugged into my house. It would be nice to be able to circulate air in the trailer when camping off grid. This should be posible right?

Most rv ac units need 120 v to run. You can install 12v fans in the 14x14 vents, should you be able to provide power. I am taken back about the a/c fan working with your propane bottles open. Would pay to see that!

Before doing that I would at least look into the fantastic fans for your vents and an extra battery. It might do what you want.
