Vango Pinnacle Wheelie 45L - 100Hr RRP £106

Product Information

Despite being a decent-sized cool box (storage volume measures 63 x 51 x 42cm), the Eco Deep is portable enough to move around when required. Weight is a fairly hefty 17kg, but the presence of a decent folding handle and wheels makes transport simple and efficient. You must have used the product only as intended and in accordance with the product’s care instructions. The Andes Cool Box offers a dual functionality, ensuring your food and drinks stay cool or heated when needed. This 25L box is perfect for picnics, camping, travelling, sports events or even long-distance driving. The inclusion of both a 220-240V AC mains adaptor and a 12V DC car adaptor makes it a versatile and adaptable companion for any outing. To give that price some context we then looked at all of the products available from Go Outdoors in the Plug-In category. We found 2 items in total. What’s the price of Plug-In? Compressor fridge – this is like your electric fridge at home which uses circulating refrigerant inside which expands to provide cooling. They are heavier than thermoelectric fridges and also more noisy because the compressor is a mechanical engine in effect. However, they produce exceptional chilling and can have the temperature adjusted accurately using a thermostat.

The Klarstein BeerBelly 29 Electric Cool Box stands out as the best choice among the other products for several reasons. Firstly, it offers a versatile cooling and keeping-warm function, allowing you to choose the desired temperature for your items. With a temperature reduction of up to 20°C below ambient and a maximum warm mode of 55°C, it provides powerful performance to keep your food and drinks at the right temperature. All of our products are labeled or marked with their country of origin. Some of our Tundra coolers and all of our LoadOuts are manufactured in the U.S. and are designated as such. WHAT IS PROPOSITION 65 AND HOW DOES IT RELATE TO YETI? Thermoelectric cool box – these are well insulated coolboxes which use a Peltier cooler (12V or 240V powered usually) and electric fan to drive heat out of the box and keep your food and drink chilled. The best thermoelectric coolboxes can lower the temperature by about 30°C below the ambient temperature which means they can be used all year round in the UK. Downsides are fan noise, but in a tent you’re unlikely to hear it.The EcoCool could also be called the EcoHeat as the cooling action can be switched to heat for temperatures up to 60°C higher than ambient. This is plenty for keeping soup or pies warm whilst you go out for a late night winter walk. This cool box has all year round use! Outwell is a case in point. They make some of our favourite pieces of outdoor equipment and have a strong pedigree of providing reliable gear and great customer service. The Outwell ECOCool 35L Cool Box is a case in point for a thermoelectric cool box which can operate on both 240V hookup and 12V battery power and provide a substantial amount of cooling power. The advantage of a compressor fridge (i.e. like one you would use at home in your kitchen) is the speed, controllability and power of the cooling on offer. With the Eco Deep Extreme, you can lower the internal temperature from 25°C to 0°C in just 19 minutes which is exceptional. As mentioned previously, you can then disconnect the power so that the insulation is put to work and your food can remains frozen for several hours without using any more juice. One other great feature of the cool box is how it manages to protect the car’s battery from completely running out of juice; it stops drawing current if it senses that your car battery is about to go kaput! Handy when you’re wild camping miles from anywhere. You may also want to consider the insulation of the cool box, as this can affect how well it keeps your food and drinks cold. A well insulated cool box will keep your items colder for longer periods of time.

There are however some methods that you can use to determine a product’s quality without needing to physically have it. The downside to buying online is that you can’t actually get hold of the product to try it out first. The ECO Deep Extreme has several different capacity options in the range. The coolers start at a ‘car-friendly’ 26 litre capacity up to our favourite in the range shown above – the 45 litre giant which has its own carry handle and wheels to help move it around. We’ll concentrate on that one for this review. One notable aspect of this cool box is its cooling and heating capacities, able to maintain temperatures between 15-18°C below ambient temperature for cooling and 50-65°C for heating. The long-lasting brushless motor (30,000 hours) ensures that this electric cool box will continue to perform for years to come.

How Do You Use a Cool Box?

Size and Capacity: Consider how much food and drinks you will need to store and choose a cool box that is the right size for you. It's also a good idea to look for a cool box with a large capacity, as you can always use the extra space to store additional items. The electric cool box should be easy to move and carry around, especially if you plan to take it on trips. Look for lightweight designs and comfortable handles or straps. Power Source Insulation: From our testing, not all electric cool boxes can reliably keep food and drinks sufficiently chilled if it’s warm outside. This can be due to a puny fan or, more often poor insulation. We think 20 – 30 litres is the sweet spot for a camping trip away for one to four people. It can store just enough stuff to keep you all going for a few days, and the fewer of you there are, the longer you can last between reloading!

We will make every effort to replace limited edition or discontinued products but cannot guarantee their availability for replacement. Any limited edition or discontinued product still under its applicable warranty that cannot be replaced with an identical product will be replaced with the equivalent model based on availability. Insulation: Look for a cool box with high-quality insulation that will keep your food and drinks cold for a long period of time.Electric cool boxes - by running off your car’s cigarette lighter or a mains supply, these electric-powered hard box coolers are like a mini fridge

The alternatives to electricity include gas powered fridges which can take cannisters of propane/butane to provide the chilling action. The problem with this is both cost and supply – you might run out when you need it most! However, most gas fridges can also run off electricity, but cost more than pure electric alternatives. Quite frankly, few items are as important in a camp environment as having a top-performing electric cool box. From our experience, it is important to carefully examine the features of a particular product to make sure it will match up to the conditions under which you will be using it. However, it surpasses the Klarstein BeerBelly in terms of heating capability, reaching temperatures between 60-65°C, making it ideal for keeping take-away boxes or food hot. Another advantage of the Berg 45L is its portability, with convenient wheels and folding handles that make transportation effortless. Both cool boxes offer multiple power options, including a power cord, cigarette lighter, and 240V UK and 220V EU plugs.

Uploading

Constructed with high-quality and food-safe plastic, this cool box is built to withstand the demands of long trips.

Additionally, the ECO mode with 15 watts of power consumption ensures that the cool box is energy-efficient, allowing you to enjoy your outings without excessive power usage. The size of the cool box you need for your camping trip will depend on a few factors, such as the number of people you are camping with, the duration of your trip, and the types of food and drinks you plan to bring.
