G'day.
There is some good
forum writings here - sometimes if you go to Google and type in your search topic then select the ExplorOz taglines you'll find a to search what you're looking for.
Our experience with a 3way is they are terrible on 12v, acceptable on 240v but best on gas. We owned a 35L Gasmate which would not get cold enough when camping through central Victoria during a hot spell in 2009. We were in
Mildura when it was 45degrees and the fridge temp was 22degrees. I rang the manufacturer and they explained the best you could hope for with a 3way was 20degrees below ambient temperature, so the fridge was doing as
well as it could, but meat, vegies and beer at 22degrees is not real good!
I've since sold it and bought a two way - far more expensive - but will work as a freezer if required when ambient is 45degrees!!
Good Luck with your search.
