Description:
This compact compressor fridge from Alpicool combines portable cooling power with flexible use for road trips and outdoor living, offering fast chilling down to freezing temperatures while running from a 12 V supply. It is aimed at campers, truck drivers and boat owners who need a reliable 22-litre cooler that can act as a fridge or a freezer, with energy-saving modes and built-in battery protection.
Key Points
The Alpicool G22 reaches temperatures from -20°C to 20°C, so it can freeze without ice and cool to 0°C in around 30 minutes according to the manufacturer. It has a durable sealing design and thick high-density foam insulation to help maintain set temperatures during travel. Two operation modes, MAX and ECO, let you balance performance and energy consumption, and the unit will cycle off and on to keep temperature stable.
This model includes three levels of car battery protection labelled H, M and L, which automatically switch the fridge off if the vehicle voltage falls below the minimum threshold. The exterior dimensions are compact at 22.8 x 12.6 x 13.2 inches, and the 22-litre interior holds about 32 x 330 ml cans or 16 x 550 ml bottles, making it practical for short trips or as a secondary fridge. It comes with both DC and AC power leads for use in vehicles and mains sockets.

- Capacity: 22 litres

Usage Recommendations
For steady performance, place the fridge on a flat, ventilated surface inside the vehicle or campervan and avoid direct sunlight. Use MAX mode for rapid cooling before departure and switch to ECO mode once the required temperature is achieved to reduce energy draw. Consider the battery protection settings when leaving the fridge running while the engine is off, as H, M or L modes determine the cut-off point for low vehicle voltage.
Note that compressor fridges are more efficient when pre-cooled, so chilling contents at home or using a powered mains supply before unplugging can improve on-the-road results. Also bear in mind that performance figures such as the 0°C in 30 minutes claim are from the manufacturer and can vary with ambient temperature and how full the unit is.
