Does anyone know if any insulated covers will fit the TF51?

Check Ironman4x4. I got the insulated cover from them for my TF41 and it's a perfect fit. ( Ironman4x4 sells the Indel B Fridges under their logo, so all the accessories should fit. ie: Tie down straps,covers,slides )

BUMP. Hey has anyone has to utilize the warranty on these? I tried contacting them but no reply. My lid failed on me, didn't know of IndelB had a warranty since it's their name plastered all over it.

When I first bought my TF 51 I had a broken handle on the interior basket. A quick call to truck fridge and they sent a new one right away. Have you called truck fridge? That is of course if it's where you bought it from. Otherwise I don't know where to look.

What happened to the lid?

Actually ordered from Westy Ventures, and the forwarded my stuff to truck fridge. When I called today they said they already processed the claim and had a lid headed my way as well as a new keypad cover since mine was coming off. Pretty happy considering that's how customer service should be. My new lid should be here sometime this week.

Ya know idk I just noticed it had a crack on it above the hinge and I didn't worry about it for a few months and last week it finally gave out. When I called he said "what happened did the hinge break?" So I guess it's a common issue.

Cool, glad they're taking care of it. I bought mine thru westy also now that you mentioned it. Westy was no help with my broken basket and was actually kinda rude as if it were bothersome to him. But their price was much better than truck fridge.

I'll have to keep an eye on my lid hinge...

He told me that Westy is simply a distributor and there is no sense in contacting them at all.

I think they would last long with continuous use vs on and off all the time. Like a normal house fridge that is always on

Follow up. The fridge seems to be back to normal. Not sure what caused the problem or what remedied it.

That's good to hear

Are you saying it's better to keep them on when not in use? Like plugged in in the garage?

I've seen some reports of various 12v fridges conking out after 2-4 years use as a "beer fridge". I think like with anything else, internal parts will wear while in use and eventually something gives out (brushes in the compressor motor maybe? I was under the impression these things are brushless, but I don't know for sure).

I think simply keeping it stored indoors/away from airborne pollutants (smog, ozone, etc.) will help it endure the years better. This helps keep rubber parts like seals and what-not from dry-rotting or cracking as quick.

imo, it should be no different than a home fridge. these last 10 years plus easily.

I think so. I would think the seals would dry up from sitting instead of being cycled. I plan on keeping mine in use year round. debating on which one to get still and what size

Eh? Are you sure you called me? I'm a one-man operation and don't recall ever hearing about this, nor would I ne 'kinda rude'. FWIW, though, all warranty issues are covered directly by Truckfridge.
