revhead, looks like you need to rethink your plans, if you believe the EvaKool will freeze the complete fridge unit, maybe you need a second or even a third opinion :-)
before you let the fish spoil due to the fridge not being able to freeze the entire contents.
(reprinted below with only relevant EvaKool information left intact)
"we took an everkool 12v/240v 47 litre fridge/freezer,we removed the moveable partition from the everkool thinking that on "MAXIUM" setting all contents would ultimately freeze....
result;
the food in the freezer compartment would remaim frozen, temps varied with usage but typically around -5 to -10
however most of the food in the larger chamber would not maintain minus temperatures but would be ABOVE freezing"
"I now don't believe that these units are capable to freeze the entire contents in the same way as another popular make, simply because of the shape and configureation of the cooling panels, they simply can NOT freeze food that is some distance from the cooling panels, just my observation not bagging the product"
You need a decent compressor and battery system to fully and completely freeze and to actually keep frozen a normal 12v fridge.
Would like to see tests from other fridge users under similar conditions.
