chescold portable fridge where to get 12v adaptor

Hi Jason
Do a google for "chestcold parts" a lot of options come up with all the plugs and leads you will need.

Regards Mel

Jason my advice afeter using one for 15 years or so, is DON'T buy the standard plug.

The wiring is next to useless (too small a diameter) and the plug is only soft plastic covering the wiring.

My suggestion is look at the 2 12v pins on the fridge and get push on connectors to match and attach to wires direct.

You then plug them on/off individually BUT MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THEM INSULATED FROM EACH OTHER.

Use 6mm2 (cross section that is) good quality wire for wiring. See link

Also it pays to wire direct to battery and not through cig lighter for best results.

Watch battery usage as the current draw is heavy.

Hope this helps

cheers Baz

This is a better solution.

Take the back off, trace the 12v wires to their end and rewire the access with bigger capacity wire and an anderson plug. Fix the anderson plug on the backing plate of the fridge. Make a connection wire, with fuse, so you can plug it into the truck's wiring loom or an outlet you have wired into the back of the truck.
The original one is as above in the replies. The plug doesn't grip on the original socket so it either falls off or doesn't make a good connection.
