Wow. This is not just a fridge, It's a freezer as well. That is a awesome feature. I see in the background that you use 6 canopy clamps instead of just 4. Smart.
That can come in handy if you have solar panels. One way of taking steak and eggs when you go backwoods wilderness camping. Thx for posting and have a great day.
Sizewise it's similar to the 20L iceco go20 but cheaper price. Built a lot like the BougeRV 38L fridge I have at about the same price. I imagine most of these are made in the same factories, simply rebadged. I used a fridge on a recent trip and it worked well. Glad to see this unit has the nicer power plug.
A couple of points; If your vehicle has a standard 110 outlet, with inverter, read owners manual, my truck has a 110 outlet with 400w inverter but the manual states do not operate compressor drive appliances! The cord with transform for ac, it’s a 110/220 v, so it can be used with 110 ac or with a 220 power cord (additional purchase). Good review Thank you
I have a 2015 Jeep Wrangler. Will I need an inverter while driving for extended times using the 12v? I planned on leaving it unplugged at night. Does the fridge stay cool long enough to do this when sleeping at night?
Here's what the company says about the name: ""F40C4" refers to the temperature--40 °F, 4°C. Keeping the food at a low temperature can slow the growth of the bacteria.40 °F(4°C) or below will be the proper temperatures.F40C4TMP is devoted to providing a convenient and healthy lifestyle for our customers by the portable refrigerator. It can be used as a refrigerator or freezer and you can enjoy cool drinks anywhere."
I have the BougeRV 30quart fridge (a copy of this), and there's nothing to tie it down. So I bought some D-Rings that get stuck on Inflatable Boats, and glued them onto the front and back facing each corner. I'm sure you can think of many other items that could use something like this to tie them down. How's that for an idea?
Hi Jeremy, nice fridge, but in a grid down/field situation, I wouldn't use the AC "mains" supply option supplied with the fridge with your power station. Essentially you are stepping up the power supply using the built in inverter, and stepping back down with the fridge PSU. This is very inefficient and wasting energy. Much more efficient to use the supplied DC cable and plug directly into the power station. As a rule I don't run an inverter unless I absolutely have to. Most of my tech is 12v compatible, or I have a suitable adapter - such as my laptop that has a 12 to 19v dc converter. I hardly never use AC powered devices in the field.
I'm well aware of that and actually chose to use the ac as the worst case scenario for wattage pull. I do appreciate your attention to detail though, im glad you picked up on that, most people would not have thought of that . I'll have to mention that in a future video, thank you 👍
@@Lonewolfwildcamping NP I'm a radio ham (G1AW) and I build lithium battery solutions as part of the hobby, both for myself and my friends, so I'm pretty good with DC power systems.
Great video, couple things im wondering, what is the power pack you are using? how long would you be able to run the fridge on the pack at a normal temp for foods? Looks like it might be my next purchase and really enjoyed this review! Keep up the great work
"F40C4" refers to the temperature--40 °F, 4°C. Great product and review - thanks!
Awsome, thanks 🤙
I’m a regional trucker and just picked one up. Thanks for the Video. 👍
Awsome 🙌🙌

Thanks, its a great product. Yes 6 clamps to put even pressure on cap seal

Absolutely, great addition to the truck 🤙

Very similar indeed
I've been researching 12v fridges. Thanks!
Glad I could help
They are nice to have on hand
Absolutely 😊
I have used similar units for 20 years. that would heat as well great units.

Sure Looks Like A Great Piece Of Gear, Happy Cooling, Brother ! ATB T God Bless
Thank you
Nice fridge Jeremy, thanks for the review. 👍
Thanks
Just noticed the heating feature. That's interesting.
Very interesting unit
Wow this great thanks KS for sharing
Thanks for enjoying
Nice, Thank You For Sharing, 🤗🤗

After thinking about it for a while it makes sense now 🤙😊

😄excellent info, very informative. thank you
The name could possibly come from the fact that +40F is the same Temperature as +4.44C = F40C4 = TMP

Thats so awsome , lots of great information. Gotta love lithium power 🤟👍
@@Lonewolfwildcamping I got 2 videos on my channel where I build a plastic ammo can battery box in my living room.
"F40C4" means 40° F = 4° C (rounded)
4° C is the temperature where water has its highest density. ;-)
Awsome, thank you
Interesting good 👍 nice frige price 😍🇵🇰
Thank you
I had a small portable refrigerator, but lost it last summer
😭😭
Got my Bluetti 50, looking for a good fridge to fit between front seat buckets in my Suburban
Awsome, I hope to get a bluetti soon
👍👍👍
😊🤙
Now that you've had it awhile. Any complaints?
Works great still
Great video. In this situation what would be the minimum watt/size portable battery that could run this fridge when the vehicle is turned off? Thanks
Like like
😊👍
Just watching this F40C4TMP without looking it up I say 40 deg Fahrenheit 4 deg Celsius TMP = temperature just my thought😁
Definitely correct 👍😁
How long to freeze a block of ice?
F40 = Fahrenheit 40. C4 = Celsius 4. TMP = Temperature.
Thank you
You can change it from Celsius to fahrenheit...it tells you in the book ....
Hey! How many watts do you think it uses in 24 hours?
Is there a fuse to this if so what size please
40° F equals 4° C
Thanks

Here is a link for the battery and it lasts 24 hours at plus 20⁰c outside th-cam.com/video/3IbJZsu4SG0/w-d-xo.html
@@Lonewolfwildcamping awesome thanks for the info!
No problem
Can this be powered with a car battery overnight (instead of a power station) without killing the battery?
I would not recommend using the car battery overnight

you you need a enverter
