X2 I cant believe you had that many problems. not trying to doubt your skills but I would bet something was wrong on your end with setting up the 12v side. I thought I had a broken unit also when my dual yellow tops would show 12v and the fridge would be turning off. After running a 6gauge(i...

lol I remember the days when I swore by only bringing some hebrew national dogs that I would cook on the fire, Id throw a tarp down and sleep on it with a sleeping bag and try and hide behind the trucks shade when the sun rose ..:sombrero: Now days I try to make my 4runner as decked out as...

I know allot of people that replace that style fridge in there rv/trailer for an arb/edgestyle fridge instead.

From What I can see in pics its an RV style one. Dont know how effieiect the 12v side will be. We have something simular in our tent trailer but we only run our on propane or 110v. They are not super portable like the edgestar or arb....

Huh.. interesting. yea its funny how they say $500 on sale, when I paid $380 shipped on mine. At $500 Id be very tempted to go with an arb or other. But keep your hopes up, They have ran out of edgestar fridges before and sold simular alternatives for times up to 4 months. Im sure its just a...

That was just a guess, Its been like 90F+ out here for past weeks. With a Black 4runner all sealed up it gets crazy hot inside. I was thinking same kinda thing with the computer fan idea. They actually make a few 120mm fans(same size as one in fridge) that come with a controller knob to control...

Have you pulled the side panel off and checked to make sure all the wires are connected solidly?

On warm sunny days if the car is closed up the fridge cant handle it since Im sure it get over 150 deg in the car when sealed(heat exchanged cant exchange heat lol). I want to figure out a way for the heat to vent without leaving the vehicle to open for theft. i have been pondering a tube from...

Another update: Just went on a 4 day trip to the desert and southern sierras this last weekend. I started the car everyday so no long term battery use was in this trip but the fridge worked perfect. I had the fridge set at 35deg the whole trip so everything was nice and cold. super cold by the...

Awesome update, the manual said do not run FF more than 24hrs( just something to think about.) since the motor will never turn off it works harder than it need to. Looks like Ill have to get some of that tape as well, Im going camping this next weekend ill have to get it setup before so I can...

I just started backpacking and at the end of the day a simple light weight hammock would have been amazing. I was stuck sitting on the ground using my pack as a back rest. this next trip the ultra light hammock is coming along and ill report back how much its worth the space in the pack.

Thats weird why it didnt work. If they try and say its fine dont accept it back and just go down to autozone and pay $150 for a cs-144 gm alternator thats almost plug and play that puts out 100amp idle and 150amps full Super clean wiring though ...

This is a common issue that most people just learn to deal with. First off how long was the fridge running on the battery only? Are you using the stock 12v plug? most of these fridges shut off around 11v instead of the 10.5 advertised. On my 4runner If I use the rear 12v plug in the back of the...

Looks interesting but doesn't seem like it has any benefit over the models currently available. Especially at that price. I bought the ultra light from Grand trunk for $20. It works for a rest hammock but i cant sleep in it. At the price hes asking Id go with hennessy or grand trunk.

I love this game

yea i saw that, could not believe that price. Waaaayy outrageous. I bought a 3 dollar sun shade Ive been putting on top of mine. thinking about buying a few more and sewing it into something I can slide over it and still open the top without removing it.

For me it does this when I hit the set button twice. hit it once and your set temp will show up and blink, hit it again and mine goes to -1. I wonder if its a rapid set feature, If so id love it set it to 35 instead.

yea your totally right. I didnt even think about testing while running, but hopefully its fixed now. should be noo voltage drop now. Yea anyone on the edge about this one GO FOR IT, seriously the best feeling in the world taking and trip and never buying one bag of ice. Even better is not...

So i ran a new wire. I have a 4gage wire running under my seat. I ran a 6 Gage( I know it's over kill) along the panels and wired it directly to the factory cig plug in the back. I'll run some test and report back. Voltage was exactly the same as the battery at the plug, but the wires were...

No my battery is good, its a new yellow top. volts were just down since the fridge was running all night, when cars running its over 13v. fridge is supposed to work until 10.5 volts before shutoff and low volts light turns on. I went on a trip and got some good testing done. fridge always...
