Which Waeco?
HI there Freecarver,
Which Waeco have you got? I have the waeco COMBICOOL 40, but have yet to test it in anger. My one concern is that it will only go down to 30 below ambient temp, which in extremely high temps might not be enough!
Thanks

I've bit the bullet and bought a new Engel.
Ollie, I had a Waeco Combicool - it worked pretty well and for £30 on ebay was a bargain. Not in the same league as the better Waecos or Engels though. After a great deal of abuse eventually it broke on the piste, but it was old to start with and not well lashed down.

Hi. I am researching 4 x 4 fridge-freezer options for a friend in Northern Mali. He wants a small, (20 Litre max) fridge, 12/240 V +gas, with a thermostat, for use in the space between & behind the driver/ passenger seats ...
I want to be able to recommend one to him, but I can't seem to find exactly what he's looking for.. (Maybe cos of my bad searching, but hey, I knows nathin' 'bout these things!....)
Can anyone recommend a fridge to those specifications, please?
Has anyone experience of sending a fridge to West Africa ? What's the best way ? Can it be bought on-line and sent/ delivered directly from the retailers, same as buying stuff on Amazon etc., ?
and Thank you,
Tifinagh
