Assuming that I'm like most of you... I'm finding the $1000 price tag on an ARB fridge to be just too much to swallow. That's a bumper, sliders, winch, tent, etc... that I would rather purchase. As it seems like the $250 deal for the EdgeStar is never going to resurface (I've had it bookmarked for over a year), I started searching around. Found this
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Thermoelect...t_Portable_Car_Appliances&hash=item2a2fb0064d
Anybody have this or something similar? Says it holds 48 cans and cools to 40 below the ambient temperature... so unless you're well into the 90s (I'm sure some of you SoCal/TX/etc people do see those temps. They are rare here) it should do well enough?
Seems worth a shot for $130? I am busy with work/wife/kids/motorcycles so I'm not a frequent or long term overlander. I'm lucky to get out for the whole weekend. I am not expecting ARB performance from something like this... just a reasonably priced alternative for my less frequent needs?
