Alpicool ECX30 30L portable compressor fridge for camping 🧊
Description:
This portable compressor fridge is designed to keep food and drinks chilled on the move, whether in a truck, campervan or boat. It cools rapidly for short trips and includes a telescopic handle and wheels to make transportation easier when heading to a campsite or picnic.
Key Points
The ECX series uses advanced refrigeration technology that cools down quickly, reaching 0°C in around 15 minutes according to the manufacturer, which helps when you need cold storage fast. It also has a wide operating range from -20°C to 20°C, useful for both freezing and chilled storage while travelling. 🚐
Safety features include a three-stage battery protection system and temperature memory function to help avoid draining a vehicle battery during use. The unit includes DC and AC adapters for powering from a 12 V car socket or mains when available. Note that a detachable rechargeable battery can be fitted, but batteries are not included.
This model is designed for mobility. The telescopic handle and durable wheels protect the unit on rough roads and make it easier to move between vehicle and campsite. Consider that for very long off-grid trips you will need an external battery source or solar setup because the fridge itself does not include a battery.

Usage Recommendations
For road trips and short camping breaks, pre-cool the fridge using mains power if possible and then switch to DC for travel to get the best performance. Keep the lid closed as much as you can to maintain temperature and reduce compressor run time. ⚡
If you plan to use the fridge with a detachable battery, check the battery capacity and the vehicle electrical system to ensure adequate runtime and that the battery protection settings suit your setup. For items sensitive to temperature fluctuations, allow a short stabilisation period after powering on before loading food. 🍺.
