Portable Coolers

(1/3) > >>

robbie:
Has anyone any experience of the coolers that plug into the ciggie socket for inside the car??

They seem to have really come down in price over the last year.

Is there any particular make better than the other??, any benefits of one over another??

Do they take a long time to start chilling?? etc etc

Let me know your thoughts/experience as I fancy one of these for the summer

serIIa:
we brought a campingaz one ..... there is cheaper but we decided that best to get a good one which has an auto power off in the battery drops low so it's still possible to start the car, last year we used for a week in middle of summer and always kept the stuff cool just took the car for a bit of a driver when the battery got low
 A good tip is to keep them as full as poss and it will need less effort to stay cold

robbie:
Thanks for that. I have not seen the Campingaz ones, but will keep my eye out for one when i start lookin in the next few weeks :)

strapping young lad:
ive got one called minicooler

its got a plug for mains power and a ciggie one

it cools as well as keeps things warm (if you so desire)

my advice though is to plug it in mains the day before to cool it down then by the time you are ready to trundle, your fridge will be nice and cold for the journey

ive seen them in tescos actually

mine was a gift though

robbie:
Thanks Dyf, not considered a mains/battery one... and I thought it would be easy to decide....

I think i will just throw logic to the wind and ask swmbo to choose a colour she likes :)
