## Description

WAECO CoolFreeze CDF-18 9105100002 Portable Cool Box : desertcart.co.uk: Large Appliances

Review: Great fridge freezer - Bought five years ago for use on road trips. Fridge is still going strong despite infrequent use. It’s quiet and keeps its cool. Only remarks 1) the fridge requires switching to “low voltage” mode on the mains since most 12v chargers don’t give out enough voltage. 2) we once had issue that fridge not getting cold. We were able to “restore” by keeping plugged in for 24 hours we suspect the coolant. Overall it’s been a great investment, we don’t use as much as could eg for weekly shops, because the fridge is necessarily bulky. The fridge maintains down to -16c which is great advantage over cool boxes and cool bags, why we bought it really. We also bought a mains adaptor and leads to connect directly to a spare car battery. Overall an investment but made car trips and picnics so much more pleasant.
Review: A very useful addition to the camping kit - This is a wonderful device which actually works as a fridge/freezer, unlike the much cheaper Peltier cool-boxes. Its small enough to fit under the table of the motorhome when on the road and fits between the seats in the Fiat Ducato Cab when parked up. Appears to be very efficient on power even when set to very low temperatures. As to longevity, we'll have to see, but for the moment, highly recommended. Certainbly worth the extra money.

## Features

- Runs on 12/24 V DC
- Refrigeration and deep-freezing down to -18 degrees Celsius
- Approximately 10.5 Litre capacity
- Digital temperature display
- Compressor cooling technology
- Two integrated drink holders
- LED does not glow is because of no voltage is flowing from the DC power socket in your vehicle; in this case it is suggested that ignition must be switched on in most vehicles to supply current to the DC power socket.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I am a bit confused about the power consumption of this. Basically, can I run it for a couple of days off a 100Ah leisure battery?**
A: Exact power consumption depends on the temperature setting, the contents and the ambient temperature. As a guide, once down to temperature at around 4°c, mine uses around 10-15ah (at 13v, so around 130-200w) per 24h period on an average UK summer day. Obviously if I turn the temperature down to freeze, or the outside temperature is higher, it uses more energy.

**Q: will it run from solar panel  80w**
A: That depends on whether the panel can supply the energy demanded by the fridge.   Both supply and demand are dependent on many variables and both are very sensitive to change from any yardstick such as Waeco's that quotes demand in the form 0.44amps at 20C ambient and 5 C internal temperature - i.e. about 10 amphours per 24 hour day.     A few degrees higher ambient or lower set temperature would make a significant difference - perhaps as much as doubling the figure to 20 amphours or halving it to 5 amphours.          An 80w solar panel's output over 24 hours depends on the intensity, angle of incidence and duration of the light falling upon it - you could hope for 20 amphours in the tropics but it would be optimistic to expect that in the UK, particularly in winter.        If you decide to give it a go you would also need a 12v battery (preferably deep cycle leisure or marine type) with a capacity of about 50 amphours or more between panel and fridge and might need to top it up from some other energy source from time to time depending on environmental and operating conditions.        That might not be such a problem as it might sound if you are thinking of using the fridge in conjunction with moving around in a car or boat whose engine alternator output could be tapped for this purpose.

**Q: hello i bought this item as 24v so why do i need inverter to change to 12v ?**
A: You don't need an inverter I run this on 24v every day

**Q: Will this operate as a freezer through a 12 volt DC socket in a car with engine running?**
A: Yes

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A very useful addition to the camping kit
*by S***P on 17 August 2020*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very high performance 12V fridge/freezer box with low power consumption, 8-12Ah/24h at 18°C
*by H***R on 12 July 2018*

I ordered this as an alternative to the 3-way fridge fitted into my campervan which normally runs on butane or propane while camping (I don't use sites or EHU). However, the 3.9kg bottles are very uneconomic to run and this size of bottle can be harder to source in some areas. This CDF 16 compressor coolbox is vastly superior. It uses 8-12Ah per 24 hours in real world use maintaining an internal temperature of 1-2°C in an ambient daytime temperature of 18°C. At night when the temperature falls to about 12°C it only kicks in once or twice to run quietly for 7-10 minutes. Standing it on a rubber mat, or even sheets of kitchen roll, reduce any vibration from the already-low running noise and keep it low enough to sleep through even in a car-conversion micro-campervan. It cools rapidly and during the 2018 heatwave dropped from an internal temperature of 28°C to -4°C in 30 minutes/12 miles which the 3-way fridge could never hope to match and would normally take an overnight on EHU to reach freezing point. Performance simply cannot be beaten and it will run for 3 days old a 5-year old 125Ah battery which is long past its best. On a new battery it may last longer. Although I use it mostly as a fridge, it will also function as a freezer and reach -18°C. However, in warmer temperatures, the compressor runs frequently and is in greater danger of depleting a leisure battery so either two batteries would be needed for more than 24 hours use, or supplement with a solar panel. Via a transformer (not supplied) it will also operate from a mains 240V power supply. Two 1-litre bottles can be stood upright with sufficient capacity to carry cold meats, chocolate and other camping essentials for a week and the smaller compartment is ideal for carrying punnets of strawberries. My only niggles are that the LED temperature readout isn't fully accurate so I use a Salter fridge/freezer thermometer inside. The shape is also awkward to secure in a car or van: in the absence of any loops or mouldings and with its curved top which is raised in the centre, it is difficult to strap it into place. I used two ratchet straps across the top held together via a Velcro strap to ensure they don't slip down the ends. However, these niggles are minor and cannot detract from its very worthy 5-star rating. Excellent.
