Cooler/fridge recommendation?

[71Westy]

I'm after some recommendations for a small fridge or electric cooler to fit in a new cupboard in the westy - probably 30-40 litres. I would prefer 12v/240v and not gas powered, but equally I don't want it drawing mega amps. I will be fitting a leisure battery and 240V hook-up with charger.

Some of the stuff out there seems only to cool down to 15-18 degrees below ambient.... so with the interior reaching 30+ degrees in the summer, that isn't great. Oh, and I don't want to drill holes in the side of the van.... Any thoughts on the best compromise?

Cheers,
Nick

Got myself a Waeco tropicool TC35 a while back - 12v/24v/240v & works pretty well, but may need to be careful with the battery usage, it cools to 30c below ambient.

This one here appears to be a good price:

we went for a engle marine fridge (compressor)12/240V draws around 2 amps and is the same size as the original cool box, just done 4 days playing dvd's, running lights etc with a 110amp battery no problems, we are running solar panels also but they are no way near putting the power in we are using

I've had the mobicool T35 (12v and 240v) for a couple of years now works superbly........
