Hi all

It would seem to me that compressor fridges are the only real option for having cold beer in WA where ambient temperatures (especially if locked up inside the vehicle for a while) are easily around 50 degres.

The other types (thermo electric and absorption) appear to only be able to cool to a certain level under ambient temperature - at best about 30 degrees.

Thermo electric seem to be good (low) on 12V power requirements but you will not really get a good cold beer.

Look forward to comments from those that know from experience - and I understand that if you are camping a few days without moving that obviously a 3way or solar powered fridge is a better option, so I am really only looking at this from the point of view that I am usually mobile in hot temperatures and want a cold one at the end of the day.
