early 2000's is modern? aww thank you.. I'm about to turn 40 and needed that :p The vintage he's looking at and with his budget, those full size SUV's gonna not be a BMW with that big ass engine that dont output any power but loves to eat fuel.. mebe if he doubled his budget and stepped into...

regarding Dometic, any fridge that comes with a Phone app instantly disqualifies itself.. My ARB display fritzed out after being exposed to a rain storm, so its stuck at whatever temp and settings I had it at before that incident, buttons dont even work.. whereas my Engel im certain would still...

at least you put a rigid backing on em, the'll last much longer because of that.. Flexible is a poor description, they are moldable.. flexible implies you can flex em w/out damage, rigid implies they will break if you flex em.. "Flexibles" realistically need some sort of rigid structure under...

Yeah with his number of people a mini-van's not gonna cut it.. its just mom and dad in the minivan so they turned the whole back into a bed.. they got tons of storage where seats used to fold into the floor.. I was just using that as an example that tires are far more important at determining...

yeah thats pretty typical, you wont see 100% max output out in the field but very rarely.. close to the summer solstice, at low latitudes, at 70F you might see it creep up to full output or close too it.. 100W of solar per 100AH of battery is kinda the minimum I suggest.. the sweet spot is...

The only reason I can think of needing to freeze items in the field is for fishing.. and unless your catching tropical fish they are already basically refrigerated to start with so energy needed to turn em solid is a lot less than say turning a mammal solid... Otherwise grocery stores sell...

ok so its that 13.2 thats wrong first of all.. that should be more like 14.4-14.6v depending on what you have setup in your solar charger.. 4% of 200AH is 8A, so its gonna think its charged when its at your charged voltage, and under 8A (tail current) for 3m (charged detection time).. this will...

nope, that's the setting for what its gonna read if your BMV loses power out in the field.. looks like they changed settings since I set mine up, whats your charged voltage, capacity and tail current set too?

Turn off the auto calibration when your using solar.. By default the BMV will reset to full charge if it sees it absorbing at very low intake.. but in your case, its because your using such a small charger it thinks nearly full and resets to 100% charged. Manually Calibrate it to 100% full when...

did you not read the part I said it was all pre-frozen? I'm not using my Engel to freeze diddly squat.. just keep frozen food frozen.. Thermally the bottom of the Fridge is the coldest spot, I'm measuring temp at the top of the Fridge and its right at freezing so I'd expect the bottom of the...

Ive got my own wireless thermometer in the fridge, the gauge is accurate.. I keep it right at or slightly above the freezing point, eventually water will start to freeze in there but it takes weeks, and I could beat someone to death with the slab of solid bacon I pulled out of it on day 16 and...

Ive gone all over colorado in a old high top chevy campervan and vw westfalia (both RWD).. most people get 99.9% of places in Colorado via Subaru, they need AWD to pull em off ruts they high centered on.. you just need a little clearance for forest roads and some nice heavy duty truck tires on...

You should just get a full size domestic van, rwd.. with good tires IMO.. 4x4 is completely unnecessary for what your wanting to do.

eh.. I dunno what you talking about.. Ive pulled frozen food out of the bottom of my Engel set at 0C 16 days into a trip and had to thaw it out.. no beer or milk or cheese or anything froze in that time. Sounds like a marketing team got inside your head and convinced you a lil non refrigerated...

I've got an Engel MT80 and I frigging love it, expect it to last me decades..

while having a LVD is admirable, people wanna treat a DC fridge like a cooler and take it out and put it in the shade under the tailgate or in a bear locker and a remote LVD is not really effective, especially if you throw something important like perhaps some insulin into the mix.. Really sucks...

They sell these lil adapters on Amazon that turn any growler into a mini-keg, all yeh gotta do to your camper fridge is get a hose through it and a tap then voila, camping kegerator.. cuz I know you need more things to think of :p

thats just a typo in spec sheet or copy/paste issue, this is the chipset they both use: https://www.cypress.com/products/ez-pd-ccg3pa-usb-type-c-and-power-delivery usbgear is same company as coolgear.. they both say coolgear

Thats the same USB-C charger I linked, its not 75W PD.. its 60W USB-C + 15W USB-A
