Deactivate converter cooling fan under bed?

At night, how do you deactivate the converter cooling fan under the queen bed in a 25' FB FC? It keeps coming on and off keeping us awake.

The only way I have found to silence it is to go outside and unplug shore power to the trailer. Is there a better method?

Many of us install a switch to the outlet into which the converter is installed so we can turn it off at night.
But please don't deactivate the fan without turning off the converter itself. You could damage the converter.

Flip the 120v breaker marked "converter" to "off". Just remember to turn it on in the morning, or will have a dead battery in short order.
