C15 Portable Car Freezer,12 Volt Refrigerator, 16 Quart (15 Liter) Fast Cooling 12V Car Fridge -4℉~68℉, Car Cooler, 12/24V DC and 100-240V AC for Outdoor, Camping, RV, Truck, Boat

EDIT 5 WEEKS AFTER PURCHASE: Still haven't had a reply from customer service. :/ EDIT, DAY 10: STILL NO RESPONSE FROM CUSTOMER SERVICE! EDIT, DAY 4: SENT TO CUSTOMER SERVICE YESTERDAY. NO REPLY! "We need guidance on how to use this as a freezer while it's plugged into the wall at home, please. #1. It seems unclear as to what MODE it should be when plugged into the wall at home. #2. It's been plugged in and set to -4°F for 3 days and, while it's keeping things cold, nothing is FROZEN. (We have planned to use it to keep ice packs frozen, so it's filled with ice packs.) #3. The booklet says to put it at -14°F for ice cream. However, our unit will not go below -4°F. Could you please educate us on how to use it as a freezer, at home, plugged into the wall with the provided cord? Thank you!" (WILL UPDATE WITH RESPONSE IF RECEIVED) EDIT, DAY 3: It's been set at -4°F for 3 days, filled with ice gel packs that we know get hard when frozen, and they're still liquid. Very very cold, but still soft. I emailed the company for advice. Will update. Original post: I have no regrets on day one. Immediately after plugging to AC indoor power, it started getting cold, but you can just BARELY hear it! It's a fan noise, whisper quiet. If I had to sleep in close quarters with it, it would not disturb my sleep or peace. Got this to keep 12 of the LARGE SIZE COOLER SHOCK PREMIUM ICE PACKS (available at Amazon) frozen in order to rotate out to a plain ice chest or other 12v refrigerator (depending on what we get; we're not there yet) OR even to keep our big freezer in the sticks-n-bricks as backup in case of SHTF. We will rotate in the spent ones from our ice chest or fridge into the Alpicool to re-freeze at 0°F (having put the other 6, FROZEN ones in the ice chest for the next night. Saw this general technique on Lulu's Way YouTube channel and it seems to work amazingly, though she used hard ice "bricks" and I'm trying these as they say they're "colder and lighter than ice." (Not cheap, but it's a one-time investment for a system we think will last longer term. Hope!) If anyone needs this info, this Alpicool chest holds 6 LARGE laid flat and stacked horizontally inside the freezer. I bought 12 so I can always have 6 being frozen and 6 more at hand to keep the ice chest cold without getting soupy with ice water. If we have any problems I'll let ya know. But so far we are really grateful we were able to grab one. Must-have for any prepper or no_mad!

I've used and abused this C20 in my G-Wagon on backcountry trips, forest roads, and week-long camping adventures. The power consumption is outstanding compared to older coolers I've owned, and once cold it barely sips power. It has been reliable, rugged, and trouble-free. My only reason for upgrading in the future is capacity, not performance. For the price, this has been one of the best pieces of camping gear I've purchased.

Literally, this wonderful, cost-effective, and thoroughly dependable unit saved my little girl’s life. We were faced with a HUGE dilemma when having to move over 1,000+ miles from Florida up to our new home in the Northeast. I’ll explain... Our daughter is a Type 1 insulin-dependent diabetic. Insulin is extremely temperature sensitive medication. If not being used with a 30 day period, insulin MUST be stored between roughly 34 degrees—45 degrees (approx.). When moving in a car across the US, it’s very tricky to be able to consistently temperature regulate anything, let alone a very sensitive life-saving med that is prone to denaturation. This wonderful Alpicool car fridge resolve all of my fears and issues about the insulin. It was a total champ through the entire 3-day car ride. It kept a consistent temp (give or take a degree C) the whole trip. I used a standard manual fridge thermometer and a digital thermometer with two sensors (for a total of three measuring devices) to ensure that the contents in the Alpicool retained a safe temperature within my given medication tolerances. The Alpicool performed perfectly! I was able to easily adjust the internal temp of the unit with the simple digital temp controls on the outside of the unit by a degree Celsius at a time. Opening the door of the unit allowed me to warm the inside when the unit was cooling a bit too much, and I’d also just raise the temp a bit, too. I was able to use the car plug while traveling, and the wall plug when we checked into our hotels at night. The cooler maintained the internal temp beautifully in the interim from car-to-hotel and vice-versa. Inside the car, the Alpicool fit beautifully on my front passenger seat, and it would’ve fit horizontally or vertically in my mid-sized Escape (just FYI). Also, the unit is very quiet, even when the compressor kicks in. Its important to know that you must make sure to keep the vents unblocked on both sides of the unit so the Alpicool can do it’s job. This is one of the best purchases I’ve ever made. I’d tell any family of a diabetic or person with diabetes to order this life-saving product. It’s important to note, the Alpicool was not just a one-time moving essential for our family: we will continue to enjoy the peace-of-mind that accompanies this purchase as it shields and protects our child’s life-saving insulin. I love that I can use this if the power goes out...or if there is a zombie apocalypse, lol. Seriously, the Alpicool is amazing! A million thanks to the manufacturer of thus product.

I bought this last year (2019) for a 3000+ mile road trip from California to Nevada, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona. On previous road trips, we would bring a traditional ice chest, bring it to the hotel room every night, dump out the water and add more ice. This is a huge hassle when you are on the road for over a week. Plus we had to make sure everything inside is perfectly seal, the last thing you want is a soggy sandwich. Before going on the trip, I ran the unit at home from AC with Watt meter and was averaging about 300Wh per day (ambient temp around 75 degrees with fridge set at 33 degrees). This will put it around 240Wh per day on DC (80% efficiency for AC/DC adapter). The size of this unit is perfect for the backseat of our Model 3. I used bungy straps to secure it in place. Due to the way the electrical system is designed in a Tesla, I can keep the 12-volt outlet powered when I keep Sentry Mode on (which I normally do). The car will monitor the 12-volt battery and whenever it gets low, the onboard DC/DC charger will charge the 12-volt from the HV battery. Theoretically, I can run the fridge for over 6 months from the 75kW battery pack. I've been using the fridge for over a year now and think it's a very good value for the price. Besides using it on road trips, we will bring it when we run to the market and have to do other errands afterwards. It will keep everything frozen while sitting inside a vehicle in 100 degrees California weather. Positive things: - Very good value for the money - Low power consumption (about 240Wh a day on DC power) - Small and lightweight - perfect for backseat in sedans - Reliable - no issues after using of over a year Negative things: - Display temp is off by a few degrees - not a huge issue, I would suggest getting a thermometer and play around with the temp setting until you get a feel for your unit. My is off by 4 degrees when setting to 33 - Insulation of unit could be a bit better - when you touch the outside of the unit, you can feel it's a bit cool - Alpicool does not sell a insulation cover for this unit - this could increase the efficiency of the unit I would highly suggest this unit for anyone looking for a small, lightweight, and reliable car fridge. My next thing on the list is a larger fridge (around 40-50 liters) for camping trips. I will also be looking for products from Alpicool

I am a long time off grid homesteader and I have struggled to find a fridge/freezer that would would work on my small 400 watt system and I have tried just about everything. The Dometics and ARB and Engle are great but they are just too expensive for most of us cheap off gridders to invest in. Ice chests are not efficient and won't keep food frozen and you spend as much on ice in a year as this C20 costs without any of the hassle. I have had the C20 for over a week now and it works excellent for a single guy and I use it as my regular fridge freezer in my cabin but can also take it with me camping and adventuring which I do a lot. No more messy ice chests and buying ice. It runs great off of DC and at 3 amps on the eco setting with battery protection it won't leave you stranded with a dead battery. The picture shows the C20 loaded with a weeks worth of food. 2 frozen dinners, pound of hamburger, package of lunch meat, 2 frozen burritos, 2 frozen pizzas, , package of hot dogs, package of salad, bottle of past sauce, bottle of salsa, bottle of mayo, 2 cans of soda, package of shredded and sliced cheese and a quart of milk. Just a heads up. When I first got this fridge I set it to the lowest -4 setting because I didn't think it was cooling fast enough and by morning EVERYTHING in the fridge was frozen solid. If you are using it as a fridge set it on 20 and then the stuff at the bottom will stay almost froze and stuff on top will stay fresh and ready to use. It has enough room for an adequate supply of food and still small enough I can take it with me camping and adventuring which I do alot.. Another idea is you could use this as a freezer for all the stuff you want frozen and put in a couple of those reusable blue ice packs and freeze those to use in your ice chest for fresh foods and could even be used in one of those homemade chest air conditioners to keep your places cooler in summer. I am going to try that when the weather warms up! I have a full review of this Alpicool C20 on my Solarcabin channel: Alpicool C20 Off Grid Fridge Review 1 month update: I am using this as my full time fridge/freezer in my off grid cabin. I have finally found the perfect temp setting to be 20 which keeps everything just above freezing and that will keep frozen stuff frozen for 3-4 days and keeps my soda and beer at just the perfect temperature. I am running this off my small 400 watt solar power set up on DC power and it uses so little power I see hardly any drop over night just on battery power. I noticed compressor noise which is very soft just the first day or 2 and then it faded in to the background I no longer even notice it is running. Kicks on maybe every 5 to 10 minutes just to keep the temp at the setting. This has just enough room for a weeks supply of food and replace items only as used. I would give it 10 stars for price, low power and excellent for off gridders! LaMar- Simple Solar Homesteading.

I spend a great deal of time in remote places lately and needed something that could refrigerate to an actual controlled temperature (my previous cooler was a Peltier design). I am very impressed with how well the C15 works and how efficient it is. I bought the C15 because I needed the smallest/shortest model. I totally voided my warranty by hacking it up to fit into a custom refrigerator setup in my camping truck. Basically I bought this only for its compressor and box. The upper trim/lid had to go. My setup basically doubled its cooling volume and it still works incredibly well. It cycles about every 20 minutes for about 5 minutes after getting down to set temperature. A drop from 68 degrees to 36 degrees takes less than 20 minutes. During that time power usage can hit about 55 watts but averages around 40. I can easily run this fridge 24 hours on my second auxiliary truck battery, more time than I will ever need for a nights camping. And realistically with my 80ah battery, I could probably run it for 3 days given that it only cycles for about 15 minutes per hour. (sloppy math, I know). I did make one small change to my hacked unit, I upgraded the cooling fan to a very nice high flow Noctua. The fan it came with was very loose and I think causes a startup "cluck" that is now gone with the new one. Operation is almost dead quiet. Would not bother sleeping people at all. This was a little surprising giving the price and since the compressor is probably not the best made out there. (certainly no Danfoss compressor!) Very happy about this. The phone app that connects via Bluetooth is awesome. Its basic but its does everything you need, this is a fridge after all. You can even lock the physical control pad with it. So if you have a pet or luggage that can bump the controls, just use the app instead and lock them. For me the bluetooth ability is pretty much needed. The fridge is embedded deep and far in the back of my truck. While I did mount the control pad for use, I have it in a position that requires the read gate to be opened. This was because the pad is rather bright at night. So having the app is perfect and also lets one monitor the actual temperature while driving, err.. I mean being a passenger up front. :) For an alternative to the much more expensive units out there, I can to recommend Alpicool enough. I am sure it will last only a few years (sorta typical with portable fridges) but knowing that makes me want to spend even less. I have had too many friends have their 4 to 5 year old Dometics/etc die.

I've searched high and low for a very long time to find something just like this. I am so glad I did a diligent search, as I absolutely love this little refrigerator. It has exceeded my expectations and then some. It uses minimal electricity. I run it every night set at 32 degrees or less off the regular car battery and it does well even in the desert - when set on moderate energy consumption. The temperatures aren't 100% accurate , which is really no big deal if you get a refrigerator thermometer and get a feel of of it's variation. For the most part, it's not too far off. Some areas are colder than others, which to me is a wonderful asset, as I can place freezer items on the front wall and know they'll stay frozen for a time. It cools rapidly and plunges readily below freezing if set accordingly. I love that I don't have to plug it in more than about 15 to 20 minutes before filling it. The unit is well-built and sturdy. I use it as a seat in our conversion van. Be aware that you must find the secret settings online to adjust it to your own use mode. This is very important but not complicated. I also highly recommend this unit with the dome lid is that extra 3 inches is huge. I can stand an almond milk container up with the Dome lid. You could not do that with the flat lid. This is one of the best purchases we've ever made. I cannot expound its virtues enough.

Update 2/17/2020 - I took this unit on a field trip and it worked great. Caveat #1 While this unit work wonderful I did purchase a 1000W Jackery to power the unit while my Subaru Outback was turned off. The Jackery was expensive 1K however I also use it at home during infrequent power loss at home. I also use it outside to power some power tools. The Alpicool runs easily 7 to 12 hours on the Jackery. Note once the Jackery is used you either have to recharge it using your car which will require 10 to 12 hours of driving or find a 120V outlet. All things consider it was a great value. I did a 8 day trip during covid and used the Alpicool & Jackery with no problem. I spent 2 days without being close to a 120 volt outlet and still had enough power in the Jackery for 1 more night. Note before leaving it is best to start the Alpicool and get it cold only put cold food are cold beverages into the unit in order to conserve Jackery power. I am glad that I purchase both these items, traveling during Covid I made zero stops to purchase food are drink and was able to avoid other people. I have only had the fridge/freezer for 24 hours and here is my data for this 1st review on this product more to come as I continue to test. These car/trailer fridge/freezers on the market are becoming popular and they cost as much as your home fridge/freezers and while I did in depth research online real information is sparce, even the highest price units seem to have significant short comings. I don’t really believe any of the 5 stars can be true on any fridge/freezer product. 1st thing I did was turned on the Alipcool fridge setting to -4 degree F. After 2 hours it was at 4 degrees F settings on the fridge/freezer Max (seems good). At 5.5 hours it reached Zero degrees again not bad for a warm unit startup. At 7 hours running time it reached -2 degrees and remained there overnight. It never went below -2 degree after 18 hours of running time except when cycling. It seems to me that the lower limit is -2 degrees not -4 degrees. I also put a thermometer into my home freezer and it never got below -2 degrees so I am pretty sure this Alipcool fridge/freezer will not go below -2 degrees, which is an adequate temperature for most products. Personal note: When you open the door briefly you will see a sudden and dramatic temperature drop; it does return to the previous temperature within 15 minutes, this of course require more energy. I just wanted to note this for those with children for obvious reasons. Also, I placed the same digital thermometer into the Alpicool after removing it from my home freezer. A few remarks on the accuracy of this thermometer; This thermometer is not designed for testing however it does seem to give fairly accurate results and I have used it for years. It is an outdoor thermometer that seems to correspond to weather channel readings even when the temperature drops in the negative number for days at a time. In theory this Alipcool unit will be used a refrigerator and not a freezer ergo the cold temperature setting will be in the range of 30 to 35 degrees F. Having said this the temperature readings now coming from the Alpicool is 4 degrees F on the E mode. The problem is that my thermometer is showing 18 degrees F. My thermometer was placed on top of the Cotinga Cup in the center of the Alpicool. This is a 14 degree difference from what is seen on the Alpicool unit and is very distressing. After testing with the lithium batteries moved the thermometer back to my home freezer and the temperature returned to -2 degrees. Heretofore now, I have not seen this discrepancy reported in any previous reviews and makes me suspect either my thermometer is wrong are Alpicool unit thermometer is wrong? My next step was to run the unit in its current cold state with an external lithium battery with 150-Watt Hour and the Alpicool setting was to allow the fridge/freezer to drain the battery low. The fridge/freezer was plugged into the 110-volt sine socket. After 2 hours the 150Wh battery shut off. This was not surprising, and my test will continue with the Alpicool using the E setting and 150-Watt Hour battery. I forgot to mention previously that on the cold start up I put two 15 oz. Contagia cups filled directly from the cold-water tap. It took between 11.5 hours and 18 hours for the water to freeze solid. After hooking up the 2nd 150 Watt Hour lithium battery and running the Alpicool it ran for 3.5 hours on E mode vs 2 hours in Max mode. A significant increase in service this would indicate to me that E mode may work for those times when the Alpicool is being run off of the battery. So far, I feel good about this products performance and it is much cheaper than the higher end products. If my math is correct you should be able to run a 1000 Watt Hour lithium battery for over 13 hours. The downside is you just spent an additional $1000 dollars. My next test will begin September 10th when I am planning to go camping. Temporary Conclusion after 24 hours - the temperature discrepancy is distressing and leads me to believe that you must choose a setting below what you would normally set your home fridge/freezer. I fear that choosing a lower temperature could lead to freezing but since I don’t intend to use the fridge for anything like fruit are vegetables, I believe for $200 dollars it is good enough for me.

Trabaja Perfecto pero aveces truena cuando lleva rato conectado

Still working till today

الثلاجه وصلت ناقصه لايوجد سلك شاحن السياره ولا كتيب ومتسخه من الداخل

El producto llegó en muy buenas condiciones, y si llega a enfriar hasta -20 grados y le caben varias cosas, viene en grados Fahrenheit y para pasarlo a centígrados hay que descargar una app de apicool en el celular y te conectas por medio del bluetooth y desde ahí lo cambias y bajas la temperatura

Amazing fridge/freezer. Don’t hesitate to pick one of these up. We use ours for car trips, in the boat, and as a fridge in the shop. Takes little space and works flawlessly. And it does freeze should you choose. 120 volt or 12 volt option allows it to go anywhere. No variance in temperatures once you set it to the desired temperature. Very happy with my purchase.
