The BougeRV 12V Portable Fridge/Freezer is a single-zone compressor fridge from BougeRV's E Series. It can be set anywhere from -4°F to 50°F, so you can run it as a refrigerator or a freezer, and it draws 45W in ECO mode or 60W in MAX mode. It runs on 12V or 24V DC from a vehicle, or on 110 to 240V AC with the included adapter.
Choose your size. The 42 Quart model (E40, SKU A3001-00701) holds 40 liters and weighs 30.5 pounds. The 53 Quart model (E50, SKU A3001-00702) holds 50 liters, about 60 cans, and weighs 45.9 pounds. Both share the same 25.74 x 13.58 inch footprint.
A compressor, not a thermoelectric cooler, lets the fridge reach freezer temperatures. Set it anywhere from -4°F to 50°F to keep meat frozen or drinks and produce chilled, with no ice to buy or drain.
ECO mode runs at 45W to stretch battery runtime. MAX mode runs at 60W to cool faster. BougeRV notes the compressor stops when it reaches the set temperature and restarts when the temperature rises 2 to 3 degrees, which saves energy.
Plug into a 12V or 24V DC socket in a car, truck, RV or boat, or use the AC adapter at home or at a campsite with shore power. A portable power station also works.
Built-in battery protection helps keep the fridge from draining your vehicle's starting battery when it runs from a DC socket.
BougeRV rates the fridge at 45dB or less, quiet enough for a van, truck cab or tent at night.
A removable basket keeps smaller items organized and makes it easy to lift food out without unloading the whole fridge.
Camping and fishing trips. Keep food, drinks and fresh ingredients cold for a long weekend without ice.
Long-haul trucking. Store meals, drinks, fruit and snacks in the cab while the low power draw limits the load on the truck's electrical system.
RVs and vans. Add cold storage or a dedicated freezer to a camper or van build.
Off-grid living. Run the fridge from a battery bank or power station at a cabin or campsite.
Versus ice coolers. A cooler needs fresh ice and leaves food sitting in meltwater. This fridge holds a set temperature for as long as it has power.
Versus thermoelectric coolers. Thermoelectric coolers only cool a set amount below ambient temperature. A compressor fridge can freeze to -4°F even on hot days.
Versus dual-zone fridges. Dual-zone models run a fridge and freezer side at the same time. This single-zone fridge is simpler, lighter and uses one temperature setting.
This may be a good fit if
No. When the fridge reaches the set temperature, it stops, and it starts again when the temperature rises 2 to 3 degrees. This cycling saves energy.
Place the fridge on a level surface for more than 6 hours after unpacking before you turn it on.
The sensor sits inside the insulation layer at the bottom of the fridge.
No. A panel's voltage changes constantly, which affects how the fridge runs. Charge a battery or power station with solar and run the fridge from that.
