Sorry to hear that. I’m not familiar with the larger versions, though my local grocery store has both the larger version of this and the tall narrow version. I believe the power unit is enclosed, but I’m no electrician.
I purchased both on eBay. I will tell you though, the latest one I’ve been looking for over 6 months. They are either never available or go for way too high of price. Last night I was at a comedy club that’s closing down and they have a Red Bull mini fridge same model as my square unit. If you know of a bar closing you may be able to deal with them.
I can’t turn off the LEDs and on the lowest setting they are a rather strong night light. It definitely keeps the cans cold, but it’s a little too loud with the fans for sleeping near. I have it on the other sid rod the house and can’t hear it in my bedroom.
@@VaughnJogVlog Damn, if it's a bit loud, I don't know how I'll go sleep with this,I saw this fridge on some streamers, but I don't know how they manage to fall asleep with this fridge, because a few players have such fridges in the background of the stream.
@papabearpapaboo no, however someone mentioned that it’s designed in a way that it can be connected to a light switch. I don’t know how to do that myself.
I have the larger model like yours but was wondering if your fridge led lights turn off at night? Mine does and turns back on on daylight? Not sure if they have some sort of sensors to save energy or what?
Sorry for the late reply. My lights stay on 24/7. There is no off, only brightness control and that applies to all lights. Another owner said it’s easy to modify this unit to assign the lights to a switch. I suppose that means they can be set to a motion sensor as well. In your case, maybe there’s a clock or a motion sense built-in. I’m sure some stores would actually want the lights on 24/7 so there may be a way to adjust yours.
@@VaughnJogVlog thanks for the reply. I actually did further research online regarding this particular model. I noticed it had a small sensor on the bottom of the cooler near the area of the lock and key hole. This eco- cooler has a intelligent lighting feature that turns the refrigerator led lights off at nighttime or when the store lights are turned off but the fridge stays on the cooling mode until daylight and the lights turn back on. I thought there was something wrong with my refrigerator at first but good to know now just in case anyone purchases this model and wonders why the lights go out at night like I did.
I have the slim large model, and I was searching on youtube if anybody has the same problem like I do, mine is usually lighten up when plugged in then it goes off after couple of minutes. I dont know what happened because it used to be on all the time.
Yes they do turn off it's called night mode and it turns off two minutes after the lights are off and turned on two minutes after the lights are on, automatically
@@BloodCousin1606 but in my case it is always off !! I turn on if I unplug the cable then plug it again, that’s when it turn on for couple of minutes then off again
People are saying there is such a mode with this one, but if there is I haven’t found it. I’m not sure on the electric bill, but I generally have it running at max 24/7 and housing most my drinks.
@insideouz I’ve looked over it, though I can’t easily move it. I can’t seem to find anything like that. I turned it to low and it just stays on but not very cold. So I keep it high.
@@insideouz I’ve also found no nighttime mode on mine. Even on low light setting it is bright enough to light up my whole room in the dark and halfway. Have to make sure to close the door.
Can you give more details about the noise? I will be putting this in my room where i need to study quiet often, so I dont want any excessive noise in my room. How loud is exactly 42-43 db? And if i put it on the lowest setting when does it turn on and off? Like every 5 minutes? Thnx in advance
Do not put it in your room. Pretty sure I had a quieter small refrigerator in college. You can probably find a whisper quite small fridge locally for far less. I’m seeing a Red Bull baby cooler 2020 like mine on eBay right now for $1,000. It works, but it’s the branding and appearance that make it so expensive. If possible, do try to find a fridge with a glass door. It’s nice being able to see what’s inside with out having to open it.
@@VaughnJogVlog Ah thnx, so 42 is too loud what you are saying? I mean if the fridge turns on for a few minutes and turns off for 30 minutes on the lowest setting, then that is okay for me. And if it is 42db loud for a short time then its no problem, as long as it is not a permanent loud noise
It’s running about as often as it isn’t. Not ideal for a living space you’d sleep or study in. Arguably problematic for a family room. I have it in my basement behind my stationary bike, where it doesn’t make a noticeable noise while I have my earbuds in exercising.
It’s been running at full blast for nearly a year as best I can tell. 🤷♂️ they have similar but bigger models at my grocery store. If I catch a Red Bull rep I’ll ask.
@joshymcdaniel9233 I had it at my garage sale a couple of months ago but haven’t listed it on eBay. I’m just a little worried about shipping, but thanks for the reminder. I may as well post it. I’ll send you a link when I do.
You can’t really. Have to be a distributor of Red Bull. However, you may be able to find one at a convenience store and ask them if they’d be willing to sell it. I saw one just like this a few months ago at a gas station, but it was a little beat up.
Got both of mine on eBay. I got luck though. It’s stuff finding these in good condition because most are just used and beat up from being in a gas station for years.
Awesome. I need one for my place. My fridge fits everything but it wouldn't hurt to have this on standby.
I’ll be selling the one I got earlier this year. I’m hesitant about trying to ship the little 50 pound beast.
So cool!
@VaughnJogVlog has it been sold by any chance?
Bro they are loud AF, don't get one. I have the 2023 model
Hi. I just got the same one. Its awesome plus the lighting is crazy cool..i think these coolers are becoming rare to find
I don’t doubt it. I don’t have tremendous faith in long-term use over a decade, but these may be worth fixing and restoring.
I just bought the previous bigger one used.. I plugged it in and it won’t turn on.. am I missing a power on switch? Thanks!!
Sorry to hear that. I’m not familiar with the larger versions, though my local grocery store has both the larger version of this and the tall narrow version. I believe the power unit is enclosed, but I’m no electrician.
Thats great. Wonder if it keeps other food cool enough.
I suppose I could sneak some cheese snacks in there.
Hey, I recently aquired this exact model but mine seems to have a defect with the cooler. Do you know of any manuals out there for this exact model?
There was a listening which included a manual. I would love to be able to simply download a manual, but it's not going to be easy to find.
Quick question. How did you get ahold of one of these? I struggle to find them online.

Hey ,How quiet is it, could I sleep next to it if it was close to the bed, and is it possible to turn off the LEDs in this fridge?
I can’t turn off the LEDs and on the lowest setting they are a rather strong night light. It definitely keeps the cans cold, but it’s a little too loud with the fans for sleeping near. I have it on the other sid rod the house and can’t hear it in my bedroom.

Should I turn off the fridge to adjust the settings? Or can I adjust the LED and Temp while its turned on
You can adjust both while it’s on. I’ve had mine left on max cooling with dimmest lights for months. 😊
@@VaughnJogVlog one final question if you don't mind. Can I turn the LED off?
@papabearpapaboo no, however someone mentioned that it’s designed in a way that it can be connected to a light switch. I don’t know how to do that myself.

Does this one have a nighttime mode where the LED’s power off after 2 min in dark?
And did you notice an increase in your electricity bill?
People are saying there is such a mode with this one, but if there is I haven’t found it. I’m not sure on the electric bill, but I generally have it running at max 24/7 and housing most my drinks.
@@VaughnJogVlog I just got lucky enough to get one did you ever find out if it had any night time mode style feature?

What’s the lifespan of these fridges? Also ant maintenance?

Do you know who manufactures the new LED coolers?
I actually saw one just like mine in a gas station just before Christmas. I’m not sure if there is a newer design.
Hi. Do you happen to know how many 12oz cans of soda it will hold?
I’m at sea on a cruise so can’t test it. It’s a decent amount though. A dozen shouldn’t be a problem.
@@VaughnJogVlog Wow!! Have fun !! Thanks for the reply.
What its height pls?
Just measured for you. About 18.25” depending on how you may need to extended from legs to level. Hope this helps.
Can we turn that led off?
No. It dims, but will still pretty bright.
You can wire up the (flat head screwdriver) adjustment (dumb in my opinion) to a flip switch on the back pretty easy. I have the same fridge.
Might try this. And you have your switch set to lights on/off?
Can you make a video of how to do this? I just bought one and would like to have it be a switch instead
@@PatrickWelch45 would love to see this done as well! Just got one and I would love to flip the lights off and on
Can I buy one? This is so cool😮😮
This is the one I'm currently using, but I had my other Red Bull mini fridge at my garage sale this past weekend for $200 and no one showed interest.
@@VaughnJogVlog have a link/pics to one you were trying to sell? eBay link etc?

I need this
It’s so cool. I just got a Dr. Pepper from it to sit down and watch some Netflix.
Cost??
They’re getting pretty expensive and you’re only likely to find them used. Maybe $600.
Where can I buy it????

Are you a redbull salesman or how did you get that minibar??

Where is the gas station located??
