Camping gamechanger

published

Bought during one of their factory seconds sales because the price was too good to miss.
Took on a week camping trip in Jan, 40*c heat running off a 115Ah battery and 160w solar panel.
Running as fridge/freezer we had cold meat/drinks and frozen ice poles which I've never had camping before.
Temperature range fluctuates a little but I think that's near the top of the fridge so not a massive problem.
I have been using this as an overflow freezer at home.
Only issue I've had is that when running for extended periods the condensation builds up around the top and can get into the LED light housing and cause the lights to dim. Some silicone in there should fix the issue.

Purchased in November 2021 at Evakool for A$659.00.

Initial test looks good

published

Bought direct from Evakool the 25th anniversary edition (they had a special price with cover - much cheaper than anywhere else). Looks good so far, but have only tested it on mains power for 24 hours so far. Temperatures seem reasonably accurate compared to a thermometer. Fast shipping - ordered Sunday and arrived on Wednesday. Also had wifi connectivity which was a bonus not listed on the advert - handy to track temperature movements. Will test it out further while camping in a few months and give an update.

Love my Evakool.

published

We bought this fridge over 12 months ago and have been on the road full time since July 17. We have set our 75 litre dual zone to run at -10 degrees on the left side and 0 degrees on the right. I can't fault it, the fridge is on a slide in the back of the ute and has been running now 24/7 for the last 9 months. Not only is it reliable but due to the thick insulation the fridge doesn't cycle very often thereby saving battery power. Would I ever buy another one, in a heart beat.

Digital Readout wild variations

published

Made a big mistake
You would think a Fridge Freezer Digital readout in a modern fridge would read around what you want your food or drinks to be. Apparently thats not the case. This one when set on 4 degrees goes up to 8 and down to 1 degrees.
Really a big concern with a large fridge in the Outback full of very valuable food, not knowing if the fridge is actually doing its job.
After 2 weeks a Technician finally rang about this and Told us a variation of 5 degrees above and 2 below is normal,when I questioned why my old Failed FM70 Evakool had a even readout of Temperature he told me it was where the sensors are located.
So in fact the Glacier has the Sensors located badly .

Error codes

published

We bought a 75 l glacier for our new camper as it was what fitted the best on the fridge slide. We picked up our camper 2weeks ago and and installed the fridge into its new home on its slide. I did some testing with the fridge and it run fine for a week. It was turned off for a couple of days and got turned back on to load some frozen stuff in it for our first camping trip. It run fine for a bit and then error code 2 flashes, fan. Turned it off and tried again and it's back on and working. Couple of hours later same thing 2 flashes. Not a good first experience with evakool and will wait to hear a reply from them. Hopefully it can be resolved quickly as its now Tuesday and we go camping Friday lunch

Temperature Control Poor

published

Set Freezer and Fridge up and froze both sides. Appears to not like running both modes at once. Set at -15c and it allows fridge to go to -10c. Set Fridge to 4c and it went to -6 c. Froze all the drinks and lucky I took the beer out. Will continue to test then ring Evakool.

It appears if you use left hand side for fridge and right (larger side) for freezer it works ok. Set fridge for 5c and goes between 2c and 6c whilst freezer set at -15c goes between -16c and -9c.

Very Disappointed

published

Purchased Feb 15 to take on a 8 day camping holiday worked for 3 days then only the fan stayed on constantly no compressor. Had to throw most food out after 4 days. Still waiting for RV Superstore to contact me on replacement. Maybe I was just unlucky but certainly not happy.

Hello Eric G,
Mine is a 50litre, however I am fairly sure the whole range is 12/24/240 volt.
