Review: Buyer beware - EDIT 5 WEEKS AFTER PURCHASE: Still haven't had a reply from customer service. :/ EDIT, DAY 10: STILL NO RESPONSE FROM CUSTOMER SERVICE! EDIT, DAY 4: SENT TO CUSTOMER SERVICE YESTERDAY. NO REPLY! "We need guidance on how to use this as a freezer while it's plugged into the wall at home, please. #1. It seems unclear as to what MODE it should be when plugged into the wall at home. #2. It's been plugged in and set to -4°F for 3 days and, while it's keeping things cold, nothing is FROZEN. (We have planned to use it to keep ice packs frozen, so it's filled with ice packs.) #3. The booklet says to put it at -14°F for ice cream. However, our unit will not go below -4°F. Could you please educate us on how to use it as a freezer, at home, plugged into the wall with the provided cord? Thank you!" (WILL UPDATE WITH RESPONSE IF RECEIVED) EDIT, DAY 3: It's been set at -4°F for 3 days, filled with ice gel packs that we know get hard when frozen, and they're still liquid. Very very cold, but still soft. I emailed the company for advice. Will update. Original post: I have no regrets on day one. Immediately after plugging to AC indoor power, it started getting cold, but you can just BARELY hear it! It's a fan noise, whisper quiet. If I had to sleep in close quarters with it, it would not disturb my sleep or peace. Got this to keep 12 of the LARGE SIZE COOLER SHOCK PREMIUM ICE PACKS (available at desertcart) frozen in order to rotate out to a plain ice chest or other 12v refrigerator (depending on what we get; we're not there yet) OR even to keep our big freezer in the sticks-n-bricks as backup in case of SHTF. We will rotate in the spent ones from our ice chest or fridge into the Alpicool to re-freeze at 0°F (having put the other 6, FROZEN ones in the ice chest for the next night. Saw this general technique on Lulu's Way YouTube channel and it seems to work amazingly, though she used hard ice "bricks" and I'm trying these as they say they're "colder and lighter than ice." (Not cheap, but it's a one-time investment for a system we think will last longer term. Hope!) If anyone needs this info, this Alpicool chest holds 6 LARGE laid flat and stacked horizontally inside the freezer. I bought 12 so I can always have 6 being frozen and 6 more at hand to keep the ice chest cold without getting soupy with ice water. If we have any problems I'll let ya know. But so far we are really grateful we were able to grab one. Must-have for any prepper or no_mad!
Review: Many hidden features, including Fahrenheit, seller quick to respond - Update May 2022. Running continuously, in a truck, left outside, year round, in S. Texas, for over 4 years. Has started to occasionally make fan noise like the bearings are starting to wear out. I've only heard it 2 or 3 times in last 4 months and turning it off and on again makes the noise stop. Otherwise, still working fine. Update Sept 2021. Running continuously for 3 1/2 years and still going strong. First, although the manufacturers box clearly shows that it must be transported "right side up", desertcart placed it upside-down in an desertcart box. In order to read the shipping label, the manufacturers box had to be upside down. While this was a serious fail on the part of desertcart fulfillment, it had nothing to do with the manufacturer or the quality of the compressor cooler. I contacted the manufacturer and they said that it should be alright as long as I let it sit, Right-Side-Up for two days before using it. I did so, plugged it in and it is getting cold. The manufacturer was quick to respond and provided very helpful information. Second, I also contacted the manufacturer about the specific cut off voltages for the three levels of the battery saver feature. They are as follows: Stage 12V input 24V input H1 9.6V off;10.9V on 21.3V off;22.7V on H2 10.1V off;11.4V on 22.3V off;23.7V on H3 11.1V off;12.4V on 24.3V off;25.7V on The documentation they sent also included instruction for making adjustments that I have not seen documented anywhere else. These special features are accessed by first turning off the cooler with the "soft off" button. The pressing and holding "Set" until "E1" appears. Press "Set" to move to each setting in turn, and press the up/down buttons to make adjustments. The special settings are: "E1" Lowest temperature setting "E2" Highest Temperature setting (I think there is a maximum 40 C spread between E1 and E2) "E3" Temperature Return Setting "E4" Soft start Setting and "E5" Changing from Celsius to Fahrenheit (My favorite) Programming temperature compensation (in case the internal thermometer is not accurate) appears to also be possible. Third, innitial impressions: The owners manual says that the top can be opened either to the side or front to back. That is not true. It will only open to the side. The top is easily removed by lifting off when the hinge pins are at the correct angle. It is reasonably quiet. 10 minutes after first plugging it in and setting to the default minimum temperature of -4 F (-20 C) it got to that temperature and stopped. It was empty at the time and started at 78F. So, assuming the internal thermometer is accurate, it dropped the temp 82F in 10 minutes.\ The plastic around where the power cord plugs in seems a little cheap and flimsy. It bowed noticeably with the force required to insert to power cord. I have given this 4 stars for now, because of the poor documentation and cheap feel of plastic where the power cord plugs in. After a little use, if it works as expected, I'll probably increase this to 5 stars. To the manufacturer: Draining a battery to 11.1 volts (the highest battery protection setting) on a regular basis will quickly kill most batteries. Draining it to 9.6 volts (lowest battery protection setting) would damage any lead acid battery. Please add a battery saver setting with a relatively high voltage, like 12.5 volts. This would allow it to be plugged into a car and only run when the car was on. When hooked up to a solar system, it would allow it to run as a "dump load" only running when your battery is fully charged and you have nothing else to do with the power. Then the excess power could be used to make ice. Final note: There are several reviews here which report erratic operation or it staying on all the time. I suspect that some of those problems are related to the hidden settings getting accidentally set to random settings after piling stuff on top of the cooler. I upped my rating to 5 stars. After several weeks of use I'm very surprised by just how little power it uses. I have it on a 35AH battery that is charged by solar panels and the lowest voltage I have seen so far in the morning is 12.4. It does collect a little condensation and after a month it started to grow a little mold inside. It cleaned up easily with a paper towel. It does what it is supposed to do, it us very efficient and it was less than 1/2 the price of the competition. So 5 stars. Update: After 16 months is has 2 times (that I know of) gone into a "run away" cooling condition. When in that condition it would run the compressor, non-stop, until it was turned off or the battery was dead. The compressor gets VERY hot when this happens as it is not designed for a 100% duty cycle. Everything inside freezes solid. Some other reviews mention something like this. I suspect that it is a firmware issue, causing the internal computer to lock up. Unplugging it for a moment has always returned it to normal operation. Other than these two instances, it has worked flawlessly, non-stop, 24/7, for almost a year and a half. Because of the low price and fact that it has only done this twice (that I'm aware of), I am keeping my 5 star rating. I have also noticed that a few paper towels in the bottom to absorb the condensation helps to keep the mold down. Just change them once a month, when operated continuously. One other note: A 35 AH AGM battery, with a solar panel, will not keep it running for more than 2 cloudy days. 1 day if parked in a garage.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It truly saved my daughter’s life!
*by P***K on March 21, 2018*

Literally, this wonderful, cost-effective, and thoroughly dependable unit saved my little girl’s life. We were faced with a HUGE dilemma when having to move over 1,000+ miles from Florida up to our new home in the Northeast. I’ll explain... Our daughter is a Type 1 insulin-dependent diabetic. Insulin is extremely temperature sensitive medication. If not being used with a 30 day period, insulin MUST be stored between roughly 34 degrees—45 degrees (approx.). When moving in a car across the US, it’s very tricky to be able to consistently temperature regulate anything, let alone a very sensitive life-saving med that is prone to denaturation. This wonderful Alpicool car fridge resolve all of my fears and issues about the insulin. It was a total champ through the entire 3-day car ride. It kept a consistent temp (give or take a degree C) the whole trip. I used a standard manual fridge thermometer and a digital thermometer with two sensors (for a total of three measuring devices) to ensure that the contents in the Alpicool retained a safe temperature within my given medication tolerances. The Alpicool performed perfectly! I was able to easily adjust the internal temp of the unit with the simple digital temp controls on the outside of the unit by a degree Celsius at a time. Opening the door of the unit allowed me to warm the inside when the unit was cooling a bit too much, and I’d also just raise the temp a bit, too. I was able to use the car plug while traveling, and the wall plug when we checked into our hotels at night. The cooler maintained the internal temp beautifully in the interim from car-to-hotel and vice-versa. Inside the car, the Alpicool fit beautifully on my front passenger seat, and it would’ve fit horizontally or vertically in my mid-sized Escape (just FYI). Also, the unit is very quiet, even when the compressor kicks in. Its important to know that you must make sure to keep the vents unblocked on both sides of the unit so the Alpicool can do it’s job. This is one of the best purchases I’ve ever made. I’d tell any family of a diabetic or person with diabetes to order this life-saving product. It’s important to note, the Alpicool was not just a one-time moving essential for our family: we will continue to enjoy the peace-of-mind that accompanies this purchase as it shields and protects our child’s life-saving insulin. I love that I can use this if the power goes out...or if there is a zombie apocalypse, lol. Seriously, the Alpicool is amazing! A million thanks to the manufacturer of thus product.
