Portable chest refrigerator or conventional fridge. Which are you using?
I have an Alpicool C30 portable refrigerator and it's been great for 3 years now having movied it between vehicles and traveled a lot with it. However, I've alsways traveled with a simple camping setup in my station wagon and previously a hatchback. Because of space constraints, this style cooler was essentially my only option. even 30L being a bit large. Now I am building out a full campervan from a VW T4 and started looking at conventional style refrigerators. A buddy has a Sunwind Nova 50L in his RV and averages a lower power consumption as well as more stable temperatures than me. I can get the same fridge for $500 and I am wondering if it's worth the upgrade now that I have space for it. I have a small solar setup of 100AH battery and 220w panel, so any efficiency gain is very much welcome. I like it stealthy and light so I'd prefer efficiency over capacity as long as it's not too costly.
I am looking to hear other peoples opinion on this. Which one are you using and why?
