Waeco 240V power supply

I use the Weaco Mobitronics power pack. Plugs in 240 at one end and has a ciggy socket on the other end. Cost me about 50 bucks when I got the fridge (CF40 that runs same electronics and BD-35 compressor).

Just curious: if you already have a PSU for the fridge why do you want another one?

I use a 8 amp charger( go bigger if you want to spend the bucks), what $40 say at auto cheap, when I have 240 volt power on goes the charger and I charge both batteries. So while travelling we might stay in a van park over night do the washing, body as well, charge every thing up and know we are ok if we are camping in a Nat Park for a few days without starting up the truck.

Hi Stephen,
just check that you get the correct powerpack - there are two, I think the larger output ones are for CF60 up, but suss out the website if you're not sure.

i have the 80l and the power supply with that pumps out 24v at 240v input and the relay swaps at no 240v input and just allows the 12v from battery
just watch what you get

Hi Stephen

Your other option is one of our Evakool 12v Power supply / chargers. These are designed for the job and have the extra option of being a great battery charger.

Hi Stephen
I use a power supply from a old computer I found lying on the side of the road at council cleanup time.

It works a treat and cost next to nothing, it has more than enough power, even from an old PC they were usually around 250 watts.

These power supplies supply twelve volts and 5 volts, i removed all the computer connectores and plugs and mounted a cigarette lighter socket in the unit that I got from Dick Smith for a few dollars.

It does not get hot and is silent, the unit had a fan but i removed it.

Depending on the age of the computer its taken from you may need to solder a single wire to an earth point on the circuit board in the power supply. Very easy to do. There are plenty of site on the net that describe the process in detail.

Cheers

The Waeco mobitronics unit is the go. It has 24v output. The fridge actually runs better on 24v than 12v. If your going to get something else try to get a 24v unit.
