I've a Reefer 70Lt fridge/Freezer Pro series
it's some yrs old now and runs 24/7, I believe it's also brilliant :-)

Was going to use an Evakool as a freezer for Cape York trip and it never stopped running, so it's in Cairns.
(yes, spoke with Evakool many times)

After one year I'd say that was good but given you should expect at least 30 years life then that would be brilliant. Give us another report then John. We have several Engels over 30 years old in our club. In general a pretty reliable unit.

39L Engel failed at 15 years
39L Autofridge 25 years+
73L Autofridge 15 years+

From what a portable fridge repair technition told me last week the new ones are not a patch on the old goldish coloured Engels.

Out of curiosity for those with these 20 odd year old fridges, I appreciate that they are still going strong but how efficient are they compared to the current day ones?

truths known I much prefer the old Fridge, however the new fridge has earnt its keep as this is the fridge that I used on my last trip up to Mt Dare and across the desert and home. And those tracks where mighty rough.

I don't know much about the old fridges but I have a 50lt Waeco and Brother has 40lt Engel they both stay cold and use very little power.

Absolutely rapped after a trip to the cape.
