ARB 47L vs Evakool Travelmate 50L

Poorly insulated it would not heat up like a metal case fridge which needs extra money spent for an insulation bag bit of a flaw with that idea white fibreglass helps reflect the heat so no bag required. Last weekend my RF47 fridge had been off for a few days in my alloy canopy lid closed 33 deg inside the fridge and 42.2 deg inside the vehicle cab so it's insulation is woking. In general it works well when running even in an alloy canopy where it's been for about 5yrs or so. The only real issue I find is the cooling element is at one end so it doesn't have an even temp range like the fridges with a full wrap around element inside but still ok had it for 15yrs.

I think condensation might appear on any fridge in the right conditions had it a few times when in the back of a wagon haven't noticed it in the canopy it might evapourate because of the heat condensation use to form a lot on a 3 way fridge I use to own.

We have the older model EvaKool with the blue divider that separates the freezer from the fridge. We find if we lift the blue divider by a few centimetres, by putting a sponge or something similar under the divider, it helps keep the fridge section colder. Just have to be a bit careful what you place against the divider as it can freeze it eg milk or cans.

Because mine doesn't have digital controls I have the Evakool temp monitor in cab so I don't freeze things. I also recently started using a 6mm thick sheet of foam next to the original divider it helps keep the fridge temp under control because I have the freezer running colder than usual
