I am very much interested in getting this, cannot wait to get it going. I am not worried about the door insulation, cold air sinks. Interesting idea about the insert. I may go to the shop and see about that. Would keep the cans colder longer and be removable when 4 holders not needed. Currently I just have a single can cooler in one of the existing cup holders. Could be a good add-on for T-Launch though.

I don't think that's how it works. A poorly insulated lid will severely affect efficiency. If you plan on running this continuously, like I do, then it could be a battery drain problem compared to the other one, which I own, and already consumes a decent amount of power.

Have the super early bird backers shipped yet?

Mine pulls about 40watts in Arizona set to 36f so for continuous use just shy of 1kwh/day (960 Wh). Probably less because fridge compressors don't run continuously. That is with a dc install off the frunk power feed. Barely detectable range loss.
If you run them like they were designed off the rear plug it’s way way more because “keep outlets on” has to be enabled and that sucks 10-15 miles a day off your range.
First generation fridge.

Most excellent info regarding DC as opposed to AC for the 1st Gen unit. I have the same one and am in Vegas. I’m already using the frunk power feed for some radio gear, but am now considering attaching the fridge. Can you say what size 48 to 12v converter you use?

Thanks!

I used the t-sport line one with the awesome bracket.

There have been several good threads on this type of install and all the details with pics but happy to share whatever you need.
It’s a game changer.
Also because the fridge can run while level 2 charging.
Here are some good starting points

Have the super early bird backers shipped yet?

Excellent question. We are way past the 14 period. No contact from the company at all. Not from their website or via kickstarter.

UPDATE! I have a tracking number! CANNOT wait to get this in the truck!

 

[thebiglebowskiisfine]

Tracking received! Excited.

Excellent question. We are way past the 14 period. No contact from the company at all. Not from their website or via kickstarter.

We apologize for the delayed reply. We have sent tracking numbers via private message for all Kickstarter orders. If you haven't received yours yet, please feel free to message us.

There are still a few Kickstarter backers who haven't provided their shipping addresses—likely because they missed our emails or private messages—so we haven't been able to ship their orders. If you haven't received any notifications from us, please get in touch!

Good news! Many users previously mentioned that they would prefer to have two USB-C charging ports on the refrigerator control panel. Based on this feedback, we have now included an adapter in the latest shipments, allowing you to easily expand to two USB-C ports.

For those who received the earliest shipments, please note that the adapter was not included in those packages. If you would like one, feel free to send us a private message with your order number, and we'll be happy to arrange a complimentary shipment for you.

Thank you for your support and feedback—it helps us continue improving the product!

Received. Momentary problem getting it to cool, but fixed with your help. Thanks. Loving it so far!

do you have a tutorial how to run it directly off of dc?
