Here are a few photos of my AcuTemp AX56L Mobile Refrigerator/Freezer in my ’93 Land Cruiser. I feel that it is a really nice unit with the only downside being that it is enormous and heavy, but I guess that should be expected when it has its own battery back-up system.
It’s heavy duty (durable Hardigg case). It’s self sufficient (two replaceable batteries that can run the unit for 24hrs). Its self monitoring (PC and palm pilot uploads as well as on board display and audible alarms); it can even tell you how many times the lid was opened by someone. It has the option of a variety of power sources (100-250VAC [50-60 Hz], 12-28VDC input).
It is huge/heavy and it just barely fits in my cruiser, but it does fit. And when I say just fits I mean in the position that I would like it in. It does fit with spare room if just placed in the third row/storage area. But I have four kids so I need to have that last seat in a functional position. The cruisers tailgate and hatch close and the freezer/fridge lid opens fully, so it is totally functional in my desired position. It doesn’t leave much room for all my other equipment so I am glad that I purchased an AO full roof rack last year from Slee.
The AcuTemp came in handy the other day when I had to fix the house freezer. I was able to load the entire contents of the freezer into the AcuTemp until I fix the Frigidaire. That was a great chance to familiarize myself with how the AcuTemp functioned prior to being out in the field.
Anyways, I just wanted to share. Please let me know if you have any questions. :sombrero:
