| > I have been using the [[https://amzn.to/35ZOM7F|Alpicool T50]] for a few months now on my solar setup and it's pretty good on energy. I spent a week in florida in December and it was using 500-600 watt hours in a sealed van two run fridge and freezer. But the bulk of the weather since I've used it is 60-70 daytime and 35-55 at night. Usually less than 200 watt hours as fridge only and 300-400 to use fridge/freezer. My fridge I keep set at 37 and when I use the freezer I set it to 20 degrees. I have 3 [[https://amzn.to/3cKgtnf|100-watt solar panels]] mounted flat on the roof and I reach full charge every single day unless it's bad weather. - rainelle95((https://www.reddit.com/r/overlanding/comments/l20a5c/alpicool_fridges/gk2is67/)) | > I have been using the [[https://amzn.to/35ZOM7F|Alpicool T50]] for a few months now on my solar setup and it's pretty good on energy.

I have 3 of them wired in parallel connected to my [[https://amzn.to/3L5xGIT|100 amp hour lithium battery]]. This set up powers my fridge without concern and has plenty of power to spare for other things. - zacharyy((https://www.reddit.com/r/VanLife/comments/xa655u/best_solar_panel/inv2al7/)) |
