Setpower 12V Refrigerator 21 Quart Portable Freezer 50 Hours Keep Cool,Electric Cooler for Vehicles Car Refrigerator for Car Camping Truck Van RV SUV Road Trip Travel (3-year warranty)

I've been wanting a portable dual zone cooler for years now. I had been using an Igloo Peltier type cooler for a while, but it is not efficient, burning a constant 60 watts so it kind of beats up on my power stations and can kill a car battery pretty quickly. It can't freeze things, and how cool it can get depends on the temperature outside, which is limiting. So compressor based dual zones have been, for years, priced out of my range. Last time I looked, probably like 5 years ago when I got the igloo, you were looking at 500 bucks for something approaching this energy efficiency and size. This one, on sale especially when I bought it(219.99) is really just an excellent value. It's made out of materials that feel like a quality high end cooler, and the dual zones are real dual zones. The one I tried before this could have the huge compartment freezer or fridge, and this tiny, laughably small compartment just fridge, which is the exact opposite of what I and what I suspect most people want. This one you can configure however you want. Both sides can freeze or fridge, in whatever configuration you want. It holds its temp pretty well too. I got no defrostring of the contents of the freezer after 3 hours of power outage from power station(environment was was low 80s temperature), which is important as that's more than enough time for me to charge up the power station and bring it back to resume power. Let me be clear, it did lose some temp, but not to the point of freezer contents defrosting, they were still frozen. This is important as I use this for my work on the road. It can keep the contents frozen for more than long enough to pull my power station into an office or hook up to a solar panel and charge up. The power consumption is just phenomenal. It burns 45watts when you first power up. In warmer environments it can burn 36watts, and in cooler environments I rarely see it go above 24. And those numbers are not, like with a peltier cooler, constant. It goes on and off to maintain temp, so it is a massive reduction in power consumption compared to my peltier cooler. In cooler weather, it has consumed less than 300 watts a day, and about 500 watts in warmer weather. I have not tested this in hot(high 90s and higher) weather yet, so I'd imagine it will consume more there, but that's par for the course. If I had any complaint, although this is more of a fantasy wish than a complaint... it's still a little on the big side for my current use case. When it's in my trunk, I have to take it out to fully open it. But this is the smallest, most efficient dual zone I was able to find anywhere near this price point, and it's just plain worth it. It sips power, holds its temp, has true dual zones, and is good quality. If you've been wanting a small dual zone freezer/fridge cooler but the high price tag has been holding you back, consider this. It's pretty nice.

Purchased previously larger size from Setpower and this time I needed smaller size for one person camping. This size fits perfect for me. There is a slight temperature variation slightly between the screen and actual reading off the interior. so I ordered the replacement unit and tested foe a couple of days. Because of the location of themometer( I don't know where exactly)it is difficult to give accrate reading I guess... So I decided to keep the unit. Other than the temperature reading, it works fantastic. Setting at -4F°, it makes ice too.. There are times the reading is close to perfect.( See the attached video) There are times the reading is off by about 5~7 degress. I guess it is fine with me as long as the unit keep the food cool inside... Overall small in size and it is a fine cooler. Highly recommend...

Most of the time this sits in my lounge full of water bottles, protein drinks and soda cans. It has been running flawlessly since I first bought it many months ago. It has been on two trips in the car with packed lunches and drinks and ran well when chained off an portable solar charger which was plugged into the 12V connector is the car. The price was great. It does a great job of keeping things cold. I never hear it running. It is very tight on space though. Water bottles are going to need to be on their sides, which doesn't leave a lot of wriggle room for anything else. For day trips it is perfect I think. Camping? Well, you might want something bigger, but then again the small size means it isn't taking up all the space in the back of the car. I'm loving it.

Very easy to use temperature control and it's quite quiet. By itself the freeze retention is not all that great It will warm up somewhat quickly but with the ice pack it is much slower. Feels durable enough to use regularly

The RF25 is a very capable, inexpensive little fridge with nice amenities. Carefully chosen. Eagerly awaited, I got it for suburban van-life so my perception is not too different from a quickly resupplied weekend camper. It’s a perfect light-duty mini fridge! The RF25 is single chamber (no drain) so it’s a fridge OR a freezer (not both). Deep enough for 11inch bottles and 1/2 gallon milk cartons—fantastic! The reversible (!) lid comes off and secures with no tools yet seals tightly with no gaps! Epic! Super Easy to set up, easy to see controls and obvious functionality. Sets temps by skipping a number (0°-2°-4° etc) and whether it’s C° or F°… a bit of battery protection too… simple! (No app needed) The ambient temp defines your power requirements as it performs better on cold days—worse on hot days… but it’s very well insulated and holds its temp surprisingly well! It runs at roughly 35W-40W once every hour or so as needed (at 70°F ambient) and works quite well with my 12V 100Ah lithium and 12V cig socket—or any 500W+ power station (tried it with a 300W power station and the compressor wouldn’t start). Was run for 12 hours on my power station and it was very conservative with power usage once at the desired temp. I like how there’s no blank over-the-compressor section like other small fridges. They really thought about space! The RF25 comes with a flat “bottle” to help hold freezing temps. You freeze it, then put it in to secure a low temp while outside or coping with high heat. But it only fits in its one slot, takes up space and doesn’t help with long term temps—so it’s “nice”—but can be put aside. When first used, the fan and gurgling are noisy (shipping roughs its guts up) but in a few hours running, it calms down and acts like a normal, quiet fridge. I found the built-in handles a bit hard to grab so it’s kinda hard to toss around… at least when it’s new… but it’s got slots for straps (none supplied in the box). Bottom line—I can strap it down in my van and protect my fridge! The SetPower team is SUPER INTO SUPPORT! I had a few hours of writing frantic texts back & forth with them and they are wanting nervous users (like me) to be a happy camper! Absolutely first rate service! Determined to make sure you have a great purchase!

If anything changes I will update this review. We needed a way to keep products being sold at our roadside farm stand cool and dry. Started with piezoelectric cooling and solar for power. This was a poor choice because the power consumption is ridiculous and the cooling is marginal. I started researching 12v compressor coolers and they sound great. About 2/3 the power demand while running and about as close to zero when not. We only need power for cooling and for security cameras and 200ah of LIFEPO4 batteries and 200 watts of solar panels in north FL should be plenty for even several cloudy days with what this cooler draws. This 21 quart cooler started up and was down to 40 degrees in under 30 minutes in late June 95 degree heat. Wanting to see just how cold it would go I turned it down to -4 degrees. I didnt expect it to get there and I was right but it did manage to get down to 12 degrees and freeze the water filled ice containers in about 3 hours. We don't need freezing temps but its nice to know it has the reserve capacity to get that cold in blazing FL heat. Keeping farm fresh eggs and freeze dried candy cool won't be an issue. Battery consumption wise the solar panels stayed ahead of the cooler use with ease and ran overnight using only around 10% of capacity overnight. Piezoelectric cooling would use 150ah or 3/4 of the reserve power overnight. If it was cloudy or raining the next day there wouldn't have been enough to run another day. Build and finish is excellent. There is virtually zero noise when it's running. With a 3 year warranty on the compressor I feel confident this will last for the duration.

Overall: Excellent Flexibility: You can also turn off one side or the other to save a little power. Size and quality: This is a very nice fridge/freezer. Especially for the price. The 2 sized bins are perfect for organizing camping foods and drinks and vegetables and maybe the occassional ice cream treat. It fits a gallon milk jug or a normal 32 oz creamer bottle upright. Energy Draw: So far I have tested it once at 39 degrees in both compartments on and once with the smaller compartment turned off and in ECO mode. Over about 19 hours it averaged 12 watts then 10 watts per hour (precooled sitting inside at 69 degrees). I have a smaller Alpicool C15 and it uses 12 watts average under the same conditions so this is quite energy efficient considering this is bigger. Calibration: The display is set to -3C from the factory, (i.e. measured temp - 3 degrees is what the display will show). You can tweak the adjustment for 3 different temperature ranges to get the display to better match the actual interior temperature. Look up hidden menu to do this. Setpower has a good YT video. Somehow mine was way off from the factory setting and I thought something was wrong with the fridge before I figured it out. Display/Controls: The controls are simple and easy to use. However, the displayed temp is a little odd. If the interior temp is close to set temperature, it will just display the set temperature not the actual temperature. And the interior temp does vary a little bit from the set point, moreso in the small compartment. It is fine for my purposes as mass of the food will help to keep its temperature. The display software is based on Celcius internally so if you have it set to Farenheit it will convert from celcius and round it. For example 4c is 39f and 5c is 41. So you cannot set it to 40f. Kinda weird, but there's not anything wrong, it's just how it was designed. The only thing I miss on the display that I have on my other fridge is voltage readout. You can check it in the bluetooth app, but when out camping I am always checking my battery level. I have another voltmeter installed so no biggy. Noise level: It is very quiet. In comparison to my small Alpicool which I would call almost silent, this fan is more powerful so it makes slightly more noise and a tiny breeze if you are right up next to it but it should not bother even the lightest sleeper. Customer service was quick. Somehow I received a cracked 12volt plug and I emailed them overnight and they put a new one in the mail the next day. I like the design of their plugs too. The Alpicool one tends to fall out sometimes. This one grips the socket better. For the price especially on sale it seems great. And being able to use one side as a freezer I think will come in handy.

I place snacks out for our delivery and service providers. I've used a styrofoam cooler for years. It's a pain, having to change out the freezer packs every few days and wipe out the moisture. I purchased this cooler to replace the styrofoam one. What an awesome idea this has been. The cooler is awesome. It's super quiet and runs rarely. I put a temp gauge in and it is EXACTLY what the outside temp reader says. When I set it up - it took less than 1 hour to cool down to the 39 degrees I chose. It plugs into an outlet or into a car cig lighter. No moisture inside. Sits on the table with the non refridge snacks perfectly - under our carport. Out of the weather and direct sunlight. I hope it lasts for a long time. Man, it's only been a few days, but I would totally recommend this cooler and would buy it again. I'm looking forward to using in on road trips too. It's the bomb!
