@gonzostwin1 Год назад

I bought one along with a River 2 pro and a 100w solar panel. This is so I can keep meats and cheese dry from ice cubes and keep my drinks in a separate cooler. I'm camping 6 days at a time and this will keep my bacon and eggs amazin!

@markkitaoka8783 9 месяцев назад

Hi Tom. I just wanted to update your site after camping for six days and five nights using this EcoFlow fridge and ice maker. This was tent camping. It was fantastic. I didn't use the dual fridge/freezer separation slide-in, just the entire interior as a fridge set to 34 degrees. Used the ice maker twice daily. Four of the six days were clear skies, two completely overcast. I was using an EcoFlow bifacial 220 solar panel to keep it charged during the day. I was also using my Montek 1000 during the trip. Two of the items I purchased were due to your channel. Thanks.

@tfcooks Год назад

I'm wondering what happens if you dont empty the ice out of the basket between each cycle. As an experiment try just lifting the basket to break the ice loose but leave the ice in the basket while the next batch freezes do that 3 or 4 times until the water level drops down too far and see how much ice you get.

@joannejohnson6393 Год назад

Nice. Would be perfect for the small amounts of ice that I would need. I am impressed with what EcoFlow has come out with in the last year. I am liking their products more and more. Thanks for another great review, Tom.🖤

@allaboutroofing2 Год назад

I made a full comment here, but Eco Flow has major quality issues and their customers are their beta testers even tho you paid full price. Just an FYI since on paper they look great.

@joannejohnson6393 Год назад

@@allaboutroofing2 I do agree. I purchased a Bluetti AC200P, not quite a true first generation product after doing lots of research and finding the HoboTech YT channel and the facebook group. Doing my due diligence as a consumer, Bluetti is a company from whom I would consider making a purchase of a first generation product. I cannot say the same about investing in the purchase of a first generation EcoFlow product, due to some of the same reasons you cited. However, as they introduce their second generation production lines, EcoFlow is correcting many of the major deficiencies of the original offering. I absolutely agree that the consumer who buys in with a purchase of several hundred to a few thousand dollars should not be the beta testers; their approach is neither the first nor the worst of the greed motivated business models out there, a sad indictment of the age in which we live. Thanks for taking the time to make a valid critique of my comment. 😎 Much appreciated. Hoping you have an awesome week ahead!!🖤

@greensavant2573 Год назад

Thanks for the great review! I considered this, but already have 5 compressor fridges. I had been making ice with a $99 ALDI unit. It would trip a Morningstar PS300 unit, but ran fine with a 600W Xantrex PS unit. So, I recently bought a BougeRV DC ice-maker, and it is very quiet. Draws 70w~80w while running, and like the ALDI, makes 9 cubes in 8 min (large size). It is lighter and smaller than the ALDI unit, so I am happy with it.

@marklewus5468 Год назад

putting water in the refrigerator and freezing it is always going to take a ton of energy. Energy use depends on what the fridge contains and what temp you start at. It takes 354 Joules (watt-sec) per gram to freeze water at 0C, starting at 20C (68F). That’s 97 watt hours (0.097 KwH) per liter. For energy testing you want to cool everything to its final temperature first, and then record the energy use over some period, like 24 hours.

@austinmccarty3244 Год назад

You declared that this cooler should not be used in “direct sunlight.” And in the next sentence, bragged that the display is visible in “direct sunlight.” Pretty funny stuff…

@c90adventures 10 месяцев назад

There are two sizes of ice cubes you can select. The first batch was large cubes, the following ones you selected small cubes. Read the manual 😉

@lawdog516 Год назад

The ice maker in my opinion is gimmicky, the maintenance for the amount ice you get is not worth it to me. I just take my ICECO dual zone fridge, set one side to freezer, stop at the gas station and buy a $2 bag of real solid ice and save $500. I guess its good if you go off grid? But I don’t so this one is not for me, also the ICECO has the SECOP compressor with a 5 year warranty, just my .02 thanks for the review Hobo

@BenBartlow Год назад

32 is a bit low for a fridge setting imo. Standard temp in full sized refrigerators is 36 or 37. Ibhave the bouge rv 30qt and keep it at 38 or 39 any lower and i can get drinks freezing etc at least in my use case

@deserttramp2757 Год назад

Well Damn, I wish you had dropped this last Thursday, I would have gotten it with the battery. Got my delivered Saturday afternoon and was going to try it out this evening. So now I'll have to wait to buy the battery, as they haven't offer it for sale yet. As ecoflow doesn't mention it needs the battery to make ice in 12 volt camping. Well thanks for enlightening about that downfall. I'll let you know how it works out in our Arizona heat with and without the battery when I can get a battery. You have a good one Hobo and Laters

One more comment, the wheels and handle are not included with the refrigerator. They are a $99 add-on.

@genuinetuffguy1854 Год назад

Thanks for the excellent review! One thing I would caution about these battery powered refrigerators is to be aware that if the battery itself is not cooled by a fan it would probably overheat if left out in ambient air on a hot day even if it’s in the shade. That happened to me with the AcoPower Lion Cooler. A nice test would be to see how the cooler performs when the fridge is left out in the heat (in the shade or enclosed in a vehicle out of direct sunlight).

@allaboutroofing2 Год назад

You left it in the sun. A lithium battery will operate just fine in hot weather up to 131 F or 55 C.

@genuinetuffguy1854 Год назад

@@allaboutroofing2 In our case we left the fridge/cooler in the car in the trunk on a 90 degree day (low humidity). It was in the car for no more than an hour and we were using it to transport apple juice and pies. Arrived home to find the battery overheated. It was not left in direct sunlight, although temperatures in a car trunk will be higher on a hot day than outside ambient air.

Cheap Chinese compressor. The ice cube maker is cool but I'd rather have an ICECO.

@melissasmess2773 Год назад

Does Iceco use non-china compressor?

@DutchK75 Год назад

@@melissasmess2773 No, Secops are made in China. They used to be Danfoss. They were made in Denmark. But Secop moved manufacturing to Germany and Slovakia. Then to China. The Denmark made ones were really good. I know of two that are still running 13 and 15 years. One is in a Dometic and one is in a ARB. Iceco gives a 5 year warranty on the compressor though. And 1 year on everything else. Engel and National Luna are the only two I know of that are not Chinese manufactured. You'll pay a premium for them. NL is made in South Africa and Engel is Japanese. I like Snomaster. But the cabinets and the compressor are Chinese made. They are assembled in South Africa. The compressor is a Coolstar compressor. Which is a San Jose based company with Chinese manufacture.

@twloughlin Год назад

This is not for me. The "Look Maw, it makes ice!" factor doesn't blind me to the overall cost. Even after your review I believe it's gimmicky. Id rather buy a solid, well-built, and well-insulated dual-zone cooler, and use ice trays in the freezer section to make ice. How much ice does someone need when camping anyway if you have a 12v fridge/freezer to keep things cold?

@TheCornucopiaProject-bd5jk Год назад

That’s a valid point, the freezer already makes ice for you if you want. And if we know there is high demand, just like at home, we are better off buying a bag of ice from the store - and store that ice in the freezer.

@DutchK75 Год назад

I have a Snomaster 85L Expedition series dual zone. I have two ice trays that are covered. I use them rarely. But I can make ice pretty fast. Fidge will go to -8. It's very well insulated. 2.75 inches of insulation. And with the insulated cover it's a little over 3 inches total. I've ran it in 110+ degrees heat. It'll cycle normally. It doesnt constantly run. I usually keep it at 0 degrees for the freezer side and 35 for the fridge. And run it off a Bluetti EB200p. I can get anywhere from 53-63 hours run time off it.

@TheAnnoyingBoss Год назад

I would like to know if the solar panel actually keeps it juiced up so i could theoretically put a soda and water in it and leave and come back in 3 months and come back and theyre still cold

@TheCornucopiaProject-bd5jk Год назад

@@TheAnnoyingBoss that’s a yes and a no. Under ideal conditions, the answer is yes. But we rarely have ideal conditions for long. The fridges are designed for short term use, like a long weekend. For long term use you will always need more solar panels and a larger battery.

@Erin-Thor Год назад

Not to mention the 2-3 year life expectancy of this product. Sure, will last much longer if you only use it a few weeks a year. But if you use it in a car or RV frequently, it’s built to last just past the warranty period.

@srf2112 Год назад

The water you poured into the ice maker the first time looked chilled to me. That could be why the ice was thicker the first time.

@naturally-logical Год назад

Wow - the ice maker made me curious. But as you said, I makers are power hungry, and *this one seems no exception* to me. The tiny ice cubes look like 30Wh - to make them compare to ice cubes from the larger consumer AC ice makers, the power meter would probably show 50+Wh. And the the larger consumer ice makers with AC-power don't seem less efficient. They may use 200W?, but with output at least 4 times/hour which would mean 50Wh/production run. Neat idea, but not for me. Hard to keep the ice maker clean. I do like the dual zone, however. But at this point I would opt for a well known (for durability) Engel (like the MR-040). Pair this with 18V power-tool batteries (no need for DCDC-conversion, box will use the 16-20V range from those batteries) and a deep discharge protection, and you have a pretty solid and flexible setup - stationary or battery-portable. For those curious: A 18V 6Ah battery will run up to 12 hours in a cold environment, but in a hot car parked in the summer-sun, one battery will hardly last for 2 hours (ass refereed to fridge temps, not deep-freeze temps).

@laborandemploymentrelation8510 Месяц назад

We.just spent 7 days in 95+ temps in a tent in Florida with this unit. We hooked it into the 220W solar panel just to test the usage, even though we had shore power. Worked like a charm. We almost continuously made ice during various parts of the days. The unit is a little heavy and unwieldy when moving it around and I'm not really sure how the wheels are going to help with this. They (wheels) were on back order or I would have gotten them, but have ordered them now. Also, the DC power cord for your car is SHORT for anyone who doesn't have a dedicated DC power outlet in their trunk or cargo area! I can't find anywhere on their site together a longer cord and no one answers their phone number.

@jojosjoyfuljourney Год назад

I like and appreciate you however, I need to tell you it’s almost as though you’re speaking Chinese to me. I am a highly respected artist however, this technological stuff is over my head. I.e. when you say 240 W. how does that translate? If I have a echo flow power pack, I think it’s 3000 W like how many bars will it go down to get ice? Or if I were to use 100 what solar panel How long would that take to make ice?

@donaldducko6580 Год назад

No ice with 12v? So it’s even more useless than I thought? The door opening and control panel layout/placement are kind of strange as well. Maybe if you use it in the back of a SUV it would work for you.

@HOBOTECH Год назад

Spammers ruined giveaways. The coupon is set by Ecoflow. I have no control over that.

Isn’t this thing pretty heavy to carry around? I got a 2018 Mazda MX-5 and don’t think this thing would fit inside it.

Already an Ecoflow customer, and I want one... SUPER bad!! Just can't justify the purchase to spouce😢😢😢

I love my Eco Flow River Pro and use it all the time! This absolutely needs a DC connection into the fridge!! I will buy a different DC fridge cooler. I don't need an ice maker or freezer.

Awesome fridge but I wish they didn’t bother with an ice maker and make the fridge part bigger. I have never used ice my whole life lol. Just not a fan of ice.

Hello, If you have it connected to your vehicles 12v soclet. Could you have it run off the 12v car socket when driving, and then when that turns off, continue running it through the night on the fridges battery? Would it always be connected to bluetooth on the smartphone so you could mo itir the battery?

@HOBOTECH Год назад

Yep thats the point of the battery.

@bigbadaboomboom Год назад

@HOBOTECH thanks for the reply. You wouldn't know what the Bluetooth range would be from smartphone to the fridge?

looked like the lid wasnt latched all the way when you did the overnight water test...

@HOBOTECH Год назад

I triple check the lid for each test.

Most Ecoflow products are very well-designed and make sense. This frig and ice maker combo and battery charging usage features do not reflect traditional Ecoflow product design style. I think this is a 3rd party product that Ecoflow purchased and put its brand name on it. I am hoping there will be a version 2.0 to address all those issues .

I think we've come full circle. First, ice chest with ice. Second, refrigerator without ice. Third, refrigerator that makes ice!

Bouge RV makes 12v ice makers. I belie you’ve reviewed lots of bouge products.

I’ll stick to my aco lion cooler. The batteries can be plugged into a solar panel directly. No cords ever needed.

@yougeekyou Год назад

I think you still had the freezer section set higher while making the thin ice cubes... I wonder if the freezer was set to 0° if the ice quality would have been impacted.

@realeyesrealizereallies6828 Год назад

The reason for using less power on battery, is because the water was frozen in the freezer and the water was cold in the fridge...As opposed to room temperature during the first test...Not worth the price though...

@mathewvickery5288 Год назад

You're my go too for tech bro. We can remove all other tech reviewers from the tube ....you just review all tech and we good lmao thanks man for your content

@Mnt2ride Год назад

Yep checked the price, nope

@denvera1g1 Год назад

10:30 There is apparently a power draw issue if the battery is not installed, i forget who noticed this and found the same thing that it used less power if the battery was installed. Hopefully this is a bug that can be patched out, or maybe its part of the design, possibly a DC booster of some kind that is always running if the battery isnt available to act as a smoothing capacitor or some other reason i cant think of at the moment.

@jasonorr1000 Год назад

Like the idea of it this one is not for me if they make a 2nd version or the ice maker gets better so can have more clean it better all if the things you point out thats not so good about the ice maker hopefully they can improve on it then I might be in the market for one great idea just not executed well at all you should absolutely be able to pug the generators up to it thanks for all your hard work on the videos like all of them
