Here are 10 easy and helpful tips that’ll make your high efficiency Adventure Kings Fridge/Freezer run cooler, and use less battery power for longer trips away!

Your Adventure Kings 60L Fridge/Freezer or 80L Fridge/Freezer are already super-efficient thanks to their legendary Secop (Danfoss) compressor and high quality, high efficiency insulation but there are still plenty of ways you can help your fridge run cooler, so here are 10 tips that’ll help your fridge run cooler and more efficiently:

1.If you’re planning longer trips you need to invest in a dual battery system to run your Adventure Kings Fridge/Freezer longer without damaging your main battery – a deep cycle battery is the way to go.

2.Before you leave home, pack your food and drinks into your kitchen fridge so they can chill down. Then, before you leave, transfer them into your Adventure Kings Fridge/Freezer.

3.Plug your Adventure Kings Fridge/Freezer into mains power at home to chill it down to temperature. Your 60L or 80L Adventure Kings Fridge/Freezer is able to run on 12,24 and 240 volt power – take advantage of this by plugging it in at home the night before your trip so it’s cold and ready to go before you leave.

4.While you’re away on your trip, minimise the amount of time your Adventure Kings Fridge/Freezer is open – just like at the local corner store, decide what you want before you open the fridge! Similarly, be a good mate and ask if anyone else needs something while you’re up – that’ll reduce the amount of times your fridge needs to be opened!

5.If you need to restock the fridge, do it before bed – the cooler overnight temperature lets your fridge chill down more effectively. Plus there’s no one opening it up for a good solid chunk of time – that way your Adventure Kings Fridge/Freezer doesn’t have to constantly cool down outside air.

6.Ensure your Adventure Kings Fridge/Freezer has plenty of space around the compressor – don’t pack it in too tightly so that it can’t expel the hot air coming out of the condenser. This will make your fridge work overtime and use more power.

7.Keep your Adventure Kings Fridge/Freezer out of the sun. The sun will heat the outside of your fridge and transfer that heat through the insulation and into the fridge itself. So aim to place your fridge in the shade whenever you can – if you fridge always lives in the back of your car, consider a rear awning to give it all the shade it needs!

8.Similar to tip 6 – if you need to leave your Adventure Kings Fridge/freezer in your vehicle, always ensure you leave the windows down or doors open to promote good, fresh air flow. The interior of your car can get significantly hotter than the outside temperature – particularly if it’s closed up and in the sun!

9.To add another layer of insulation, add a fridge bag or fridge cover. Adventure Kings offers an insulated fridge bag for the 60L Fridge/Freezer for an extra layer of insulation and protection.

10.If you’re using your fridge regularly, invest in a solar panel. These are a virtually cost free way of recharging your batteries and keeping your fridge running 24/7 – and they couldn’t be easier to use. Just set and forget!
