When people first start traveling long distances, or get involved in activities such as tailgating, one of the first questions that comes to mind is "Can you put a small fridge in your car?" The answer to this question is a resounding, "Yes!"
Sometimes referred to as 12 volt coolers or portable refrigerators, there are several lines of car refrigerator. Generally, these units more resemble a cooler than your refrigerator at home. Designed similar to a picnic cooler, these units offer either pure 12 volt car accessory power or the alternative to plug into either 12 volt or house current via a plug unit similar to an A/C cellular phone charger.
18 Volt Power Tools
Adding a refrigerator to your car is as simple as plugging it into your cigarette lighter plug. Choosing one can be rather more difficult. Depending on your budget, there is a whole array of car refrigerators available today from several different manufacturers.
Kool-tron offers a complete line of portable refrigerators, ranging in size from a modest 18 quart thermoelectric cooler to a 52 quart cooler. The Kool-tron brand are all thermoelectric coolers, capable of cooling to 45 degrees below the ambient temperature, as well as doubling as food warmers with a minor modification on the fly.
For true refrigerators which are independent of outside temperatures, the leading brands are Edgestar and Summit. Adapted from RV technology, these portable refrigerator/freezer units offer true refrigeration capable of running off of 12 volt car accessory outlets. Although they still offer a cooler-style, complete with handles, they are the next step in how you can put a small fridge in your car.
Some of the features you can expect on upper-end car refrigerators include: digital thermostats, exterior temperature displays, side handles, CFC-free refrigerant, and transportation trolleys. The trolley is especially nice for larger models, as the one distinct draw back of a car refrigerator versus the classic cooler is the weight. Even the 13 quart cooler model weighs in at nine pounds, while the 63 quart true refrigerator version is 57 pounds.
The carrying weight aside, it is good to know you can keep your food and family safe while traveling.
