Portable Fridges

The debate over which fridge is the best on the market is one of the most contested discussions in the camping recreation. In this article we look at the range of features and the major issues to

Geoff - the first

Hello all,

I have a camper trailer with a 90ltr Reefer fridge/freezer (front opening).
The unit has an electronic controller with LOTS of functions.
I have managed to drown the fridge owners manual, and it's now unreadable.

I believe Reefer are no longer in business.
Is this correct? Is there another contact I could try?
Does anyone know where I can get hold of another manual? A photocopy would do.

Happy to pay if necessary.

Cheers,
Geoff

Have a happy hour regularly and no matter what fan you have you will not hear it.
Any unit using fans can have a noisy one and they are not expensive to change them so I suppose its get used to it or get rid of it ( The fan I mean).

Rod still runs a 70Ltr front opener in his display trailer and I had a chap in here from Taree that had one of the first Liemac 50L units and never missed a beat.

I had a 90L chest unit but my diesel mechanic now has it.

The original designer still carries the first ever Liemac around in his Landcruiser he now lives in rural Victoria near Shepparton.

Yep and you go back a long way if you go that far.But did you know about his epic bulldozer drive across nearly a 1000ks of Aus outback and if you do you really know who he is.

Ian,
Peter McKay in an "epic bulldozer drive across nearly a 1000ks of Aus outback" I had thought of him as 'level headed' but as a grader driver, he was an opal miner, must have been the heat :-)

Actually Paul I stretched the truth on that one he couldnt get a float so he walked the machine around 200Kls from Oodnadatta to Mintabie so it was still a pretty good feat and I dont think i would have liked to have done it.

Mainey and Ian,

I've tried a few different fans and it's MUCH quieter now.
I can't hear the fan until the compressor cuts out.
I tried replacing with 1 the same as the original unit, but it was just as loud.
I settled on 1 with a lower cfm rating (70cfm/19dba v 114 cfm/46dba), but in practice it doesn't seem to have had any detrimental effect on cooling performance. It still gets really cold very quickly.
Perhaps the original fan is a bit oversized?

Mainey, I'm interested in your solar setup.
What size panels and what controller do you use?
Does it keep up with all your power needs, or do you have to top-up after a few days?

Cheers,
Geoff

The only time it may be a problem is in extreme temperatures with the lower fan capacity but depending where you are you may already have had some so fingers crossed.

The overevr supply of just about everything from China is bringing some prices down and this includes Solar so be a keen shopper.
