1. I have a FF90 which I bought from the Fridgeshop and it didn't come with a basket. I have noticed another brand on the market that still sells what appears to be an exact copy of the FF90 and I thought I may be able to track down a basket from them. Does any one know that brand I am talking about or know where else I could get a basket that fits the FF90
2. On our last trip up north we had a FF90 and FF70 and the bloke with the FF70 forgot his waeco power supply MPS50. So after a few beers we plugged a cig lighter double adapter into my waeco MPS50 supply and ran both the fridges off the same power supply. This lasted for about 10days in 25-30deg heat and they were both on freeze. I was concerned that the power supply wouldn't handle it but it seemed to be fine. We had the powersupply hooked up to the generator and also had a battery hooked in for when the generator ran out of fuel. Question is will I blow up the power supply unit if I do this pracitice all the time. I was considering buying a CF35 and hoping to hook that and the FF90 to the MPS50 - will that be ok?

I think you will shorten it's life considerably. The MPS50 has 6A output, 2 fridges could obviously draw in excess of that current.
When we bought our 60l Waeco we already had the smaller 5A transformer and were advised it wouldn't be up to the job, so based on this advice, I would doubt you could run 2 off the MPS50 for very long without stuffing it. In fact I'm a tad surprised you managed to run them both as you have.
Cheers
