I''ve got the 40l electric one and used it in a tent that's too hot to sit in comfortably. It kept the food nicely cool and fresh, I suspect if I tried to cool beer in it as well then it wouldn't have coped.
been using my halfords 36ltr coolbox for just over 3yrs now too and its still going strong in our canvas tt which is a lot cooler than polyester tents,infact the element in the lid ices up every now and then and i have to thaw it out...
We have one and it is really good, it sometimes has ice inside
------------- We camped for years. In 2019 we bought an Elddis Avante 454. We like it as it is short (6.9m) and fits in our driveway and has a fixed bed.
We had 127 nights away in the caravan in 2023.
Mine was really good for two years, but then just stopped working, the only thing with it was the icing up and then dripping into the coolbox.
I haven't replaced it yet, we are using our eight year old National Luna Fridge instead for the rest of this year, but I will replace the Halfords one with something better next time for shorter trips, the National Luna is used for longer trips but it is much much bigger and heavy (more room for wine, methinks!)
------------- Enjoying life beyond kids, new love, living on a boat and a new lease of life in my mid 50s! Never too old to reinvent yourself.....
