Thanks for your review. I just bought the same one off of ebay for $139. They said it might have some scratches or other minor cosmetic problems, but I can't find any. I am missing one screw hole filler that you take out to put on the handle, so I guess I'll have to send it back - just kidding! So far it seems to be working fine, so I am extremely happy with this purchase! I will be using it on my monohull sailboat so the ability for it to work on an angle while I'm heeling over is important. My system in the past was to use freezer packs from a little AC freezer I have and put them in a highly insulated cooler (similar to a Yeti), but they take up a fair amount of room and it takes time and effort to switch the warm ones with the newly cold ones. I'm looking forward to just putting in the food and drinks and put the temperature where I want it. With Eco mode I should never have to worry about the battery running low at night, especially since it uses such a small amount of wattage even at max power.
I don’t know exact time but it did seem to stay cold pretty long if you keep it closed. I’d say at least a few hours, with it going up a few degrees at a time.
I was wondering how loud the compressor is when running. Have you measured how many decibels it emits? I have the AJ40, and it seems to run rather loudly (~50-60dB).
@GloriousDayAdventures I ended up getting a second one, and it ran at around 40-42dB. I returned the louder one. To measure, I just used an app on my phone.
I've got the AJ40 and it's come in clutch on a few longer trips. Even good if you're running errands and need to make some stops after hitting the grocery store.
We have been using a Setpower 45L fridge for the past year and it has worked flawlessly. I had researched several refrigerators and decided on the Setpower for a few reasons. First was the fact that they use the danfoss compressor, which is top of the line and second was the value. We don't use the wire basket as it takes up a little extra space and will put warm pop in the non refrigerated side just to start to get it cool and cycle it into the fridge as we drink. It works great for us. You will love it.
