  • Wilburre on 13/11/2018 - 16:44

    Anyone know internal and external dimenaions, warranty, voltage cutoff? Googled it and only hit was bigw as expected. Is it a clone of something?

  • gtech on 13/11/2018 - 16:56

    That looks near identical to my Stirling fridge from Aldi which hasn't missed a beat… and is $150 cheaper than I paid

    • Flanders on 13/11/2018 - 22:01

      That looks near identical to my Stirling fridge from Aldi

      Possibly is identical, one of those items all made in same factory to identical specs, then different brand labels put on later.
      I purchased TV years ago from aldi, returned it to exchange due to fault, given same tv exactly, but different brand label.

  • Josho on 13/11/2018 - 17:04

    Apparently the compressor is a SECOP (DANFOSS) and the fridges campmaster brand are a rebadged snowmaster which is a reputable south african brand,

    the compressors are quite good for the money.

  • willyroo on 13/11/2018 - 17:29

    Not sure who the original manufacturer is (Primus?), however it also manifests as:
    Waeco CF40
    Adventure Kings 45L camping fridge
    Aldi 40L

    TL;DR - good product for the money. Keep at least 12.0 volts to it with a decent connection and it should last a long time.

    • OzyBe on 13/11/2018 - 18:00

      Change the sticker to Adventure Kings, and you straight away gain 5L in capacity!

        Adventure Kings does look different.

  • ujwols on 13/11/2018 - 18:13

    How can I use this at home?

    • edfoo on 13/11/2018 - 18:21
      +1

      There should also be a AC 240V power cord to be plugged into main power point.

    • Flanders on 13/11/2018 - 22:06

      If you want something for home, can easy find a bar fridge for $50 or less on gumtree. I even see plenty of full size fridges for free, or about $50 on gumtree. It's a bulky item and hard to sell, so it's certainly a buyers market IMO.

      • raymosaurus on 13/11/2018 - 23:36
        +1

        All true but that's not the point. It's always a great benefit to be able to chill the fridge at home before loading it with food.

        For those with a fridge powered by 12v only, you might like to buy a 240v AC to 12v DC transformer.

        • DarwinBoy on 14/11/2018 - 08:15
          +2

          That's the recommended way to use the fridge to make sure it is cold before you place it in the car and start driving.
          Another good idea is to use a towel if its only half full. Place the towel on your food and it stops bulk hot air entering your fridge every time you open it.

  • KRM123 on 13/11/2018 - 18:17

    Just got one.

    Plan to get another if my wish card ever comes through. If it doesn't come in time i will see if they can refund me the price in store, then repurchase with my wish gift card.

    • [Deactivated] on 13/11/2018 - 18:20

      these prices are online only which means they scan at $500 inshore

        had to order as it was running out of stock around me, now SA wide mostly gone.

        • KRM123 on 13/11/2018 - 19:29

          I did the same. However my receipt came through but no gift card yet. I actually noticed the gift card website says can't currently be used online, which i'm pretty sure it didn't say earlier.

          If so i will phone woolies for a gift card refund as i bought it specifically for online use.

          • [Deactivated] on 13/11/2018 - 22:18

            @KRM123: my card came in 8mins after i ordered the 2nd. so yeah, useless timing.

  • Purley23 on 13/11/2018 - 18:20

    Can you plug this into normal power socket as a spare fridge in the home if needed?

    • ujwols on 13/11/2018 - 18:22

      same question, doesn't look like

      • KRM123 on 13/11/2018 - 18:26
        +2

        Looks exactly the same as the aldi one. In which case you get a 240v plug. If it doesn't come with the plug you can probably buy one for a few bucks.

        • KRM123 on 13/11/2018 - 18:35
          +4

          I've just found a 40L campmaster online that someone is selling and it defo has 240V.

          It's also the same as the ironman 40L one and again it also has 240V

  • Lord Ra on 13/11/2018 - 18:22

    Do you think this is a good idea to have in a Mazda 3 for after those long bush walks? Will it just be a normal cigarette lighter power source?

    • Villainous on 13/11/2018 - 18:27

      With any car fridge/freezer best to be running separate solar/deep cycle battery system.

      • Ulysses31 on 13/11/2018 - 18:34
        +1

        ^ This. Also, maybe connect phone charger to each socket in the car, see if/what ones stay alive while car off.

        A legend of a mate lent me his 4WD and full setup. He set the waeco temp dial exactly, said don’t mess with it. I forgot*, and woke up to a flat battery. TWICE.

        *46deg, fridge was struggling.

        • Lord Ra on 13/11/2018 - 18:52

          I think maybe I'll turn it off when we're gone, i'm sure it will still stay cold after a couple of hours in there. After pay makes this SO worth it, got one now. Cheers OP, Yoga and Bladerunner

        • DarwinBoy on 13/11/2018 - 19:34

          Most waeco's have a low voltage setting which should stop this happening.

    • lomie on 13/11/2018 - 18:35

      Depends how long the bushwalk is and whether you keep the fridge powered while you are on the bushwalk and how hot it is outside.

    • gtech on 13/11/2018 - 18:48

      Hi Mate,
      It will be ok, I'm pretty sure that Mazda 3's turns off its power to the cabin when the engine is not running.
      So the fridge will not run if the car is not running. It will only turn on when you put the key in the ignition.
      (either way, I recommend that you unplug it as these fridges require a few amps to start off which may be an issue on an old battery)
      So forgetting to unplug it is not an issue.

  • Villainous on 13/11/2018 - 18:25

    aldi have their generic deep cycle car batteries on clearance for 59.99 now so if you don't want to drain your car battery i suppose you could run it off that in the boot.

    combined with a battery charger when you get to mains, charge it up at campsites

    • Villainous on 13/11/2018 - 19:25

      Which Aldi has them for $59.99?

        • killabob on 14/11/2018 - 10:22

    • Flanders on 13/11/2018 - 23:17

      How many amp hours is the $59.99 battery ?

      • enigma48 on 14/11/2018 - 10:36

        Seems like 38Ah so pretty small - https://thegreynomads.activeboard.com/t64953149/aldi-agm-bat…

        • Flanders on 14/11/2018 - 10:40

          Thanks.
          38ah is decent, for $60 .
          The 105ah ones would be good. But 38ah not so heavy, so would be ideal for me due to back injury.
          Will try to check local aldi today (get them to call round other stores for stock).
          In illawarra, it seems the newest stores get old stock from all the others to clear. Might be the same for people in other locations.

            @Flanders: Don't forget that you should never run these batteries below 50% so when you are looking at ah you really need to half the rated amount.
