My Military Spec Freezer/Fridge

[Trailpsycho]

Wow! 142 lbs, thats a big mamma-jamma! The website claims 48 hrs on internal battery power alone.

I also found some of these available at auction...

What does a comparable sized (45-60 L) Engel weigh?

I guess, if you had to set up dual batteries and other electrical charging add-ons, you might get close to the same weight.

Can you recharge this unit with DC/alternator current or is it set-up to only be charged from 110 or 220 AC? Very curious about this unit for the trailer I am building...definitely overkill, but sometimes thats good.

I have used mine all weekend on a single charge in fridge mode. In freezer mode it will last about a third of that time. I have a 1300w inverter and just use that to recharge the fridge when stationary.

Reviving an old thread.

So, you have had it for a while, how is it?

Also, If the internal batteries die/are dead/are missing, etc. could you just run it off the 12V cable or does it need its own batteries to function?

Funny you should ask because I am out on a trip right now sitting by the fire with my fridge (well... my fridge is in the truck) and I love it. I have had it on a few trips now and it has worked great!

As far as your battery question, it does not need them hooked up to run the fridge.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Hey Scott,
Had a question about the fridge and am hoping you can answer it.?. In your first pic, just underneath the Fridge's handle is a verticle rectanglular opening. Kinda looks like a stereo horn tweeter?? Any idea what that is/does?? Thanks!

[Scott_sFZJ80]

That is actually the fan exhaust, there are two intake ports that hold the filters and then the air exits through the opening that you are inquiring about.
