12 Volt Refrigerator, CRPRO 30 Quart 12V Car Fridge, Portable Freezer (-8℉~50℉), Compressor Electric Cooler with 12V/24 DC, 110-240 AC for Outdoor Camping Overlanding Truck RV SUV Van

Very good camping fridge. I like the cooling aggregate which is variable speed. When needing less cooling (close to target temperature) it draws less power. It is not loud or unpleasant, just a whirling hum. We had it inside the tent. The temperature sensor is on the bottom of the fridge (while cooling loops are on the side). I measured a 3.2F higher temp inside of the fridge over the set point (averaged over many hours). But that does not seem to matter, it works well in real world. Put the food/drinks back in after meal (and they have warmed up) and temperature displayed jumps up, and fridge cools down. Exactly as it should be. I always use the MAX mode to use the cooling capabilities. The ECO mode marginally reduces power consumption. Under ideal conditions (never open the fridge), @ 74F ambient (indoors no direct sunlight) with a -8F target temp it consumes 23.1Wh per hour in MAX and 20.5Wh in ECO. ECO has a higher duty cycle (on for 60% of the time vs. 50% in MAX), and the cooling aggregate apparently is more efficient at lower speeds. Improving insulation (i.e. putting a blanket over the fridge except for the vents) had a bigger effect only needing 19.5Wh per hour. Power consumption is much higher in the real world (open/close, putting food/drinks back in that are no longer as cold). I did not measure (busy camping), but I would guess 250Wh in a 24h period using it as a fridge (34F set point -- which is a bit too cold). In real-world, very good fridge! We enjoy having a real fridge and not needing to mess with ice. Friends are surprised about nice and cold beverages right on the campground. You could even have your own ice cream (using it as a freezer). Albeit, it still gets wet inside the fridge due to condensation -- we don't dry things off when putting it back. In hot and humid weather, lots of condensate forms when you take something nice and cool out of the fridge.

If I could give this 10 stars I would. Who would have thought that a 12 volt refrigerator freezer could be this great and efficient. The inverter compressor is very quiet constantly adjusting is speed to efficiently use power. The most this device pulls is 2.5amps or 37 watts. It can easily flash freeze by dropping the temperature down to -8 F. I never have to waste my money on ice again. The fact that you don’t need ice means that you don’t need as large of a cooler. I fit more in this than my 55 gallon Coleman because I don’t need ice. I take it everywhere. If you plug it in and pre-cool it to zero and then take it on the road with the battery it will keep stuff at 30 degrees about 10 hours on a charge. Get the insulated cover it makes a huge difference in battery life. Without the cover it’s about 50% less efficient on battery power. I bought 2 batteries so I can keep Italian ices in it at -4 degrees all day. It’s always great to bring a meat freezer with you when you buy ice cream in the summer. You can get it home without it melting. It isn’t too heavy even with food in it. It’s easy to transport because its size is very manageable. I love the fact that it keeps your settings when you swap batteries. The interior has a wonderful lighting system that works just like a regular refrigerator. If they can make just one improvement it would be to have the battery just slide in. The cigarette lighter plug really holds tight into the battery making it difficult to pull out to remove battery. Other than that one tiny gripe this is truly the best gadget ever invented. I most definitely will buy a bigger one next year for use in my yard for party’s because it keeps stuff real cold even opening and closing a lot. It comes with a real nice set of accessories like a car power cord and a shorter cord for the battery.

The refrigerator is awesome!!! We have 2 of The BougeRv and they are well worth the money! We use ours in our vehicles for the most part. This summer I put mine on the pool deck for drinks and it worked great sitting in the sun (117degrees here in the desert!) I have the 30 and it holds a 24 pk plus extra!!! Easy to use, easy to clean,easy t carry, and when in the car uses very little battery. You can freeze items or refrigerate!!! I use my to refrigerate, however I did freeze my beer by accident! I set it on 37 degrees ( beer is recommended for 41 degrees) but I like mine very cold!!!!

I have had this cooler for a few months now and absolutely love it. It has been camping, in the field for training, the beach, worked as a refrigerator during deployment, and on many road trips. The good: The lid is easier to open than the zipper coolers it replaced The internal light and removable divider are nice Low power draw Automatic low voltage shutdown Fairly quiet No ice requirements The not so good The carry handles on the side are shallow. (This is my biggest complaint.) The thermostat is not accurate The so-so Fridge space is limited compared to regular coolers Mine is scuffed up pretty good I highly recommend the battery pack. It is expensive but worth it

We LOVE this. Our family uses this car fridge when we are spending a day at the lake. We pack our lunch, bring cold drinks, plug it in and go! The fridge offers the ability to set the temp and the food stays cold. You can purchase a battery if you don't want to leave it plugged into your vehicle, or decide to bring it out on the lake, in a tent, etc. This has never failed us and it beats packing a cooler full of ice. It's quiet, very easy to use and doesn't take up much space.
