fridge running on disposable gas cannister

Post by rainman »

Got myself one of these for a festival last weekend:

I don't keep a fridge permanently in the van so was looking for a 3-way to replace my knackered old one. I was pleasantly surprised to find this, a little cannister does 24 hours and I reckon I could extend that by turning the fridge off at night. I kept it in the awning so venting wasn't an issue and am very pleased with its performance. Just saying like.

E D I T: I just noticed the price on Amazon, mine was £220 from Attwools.

It is perfect for a picnic, but in a weekend you have to change the cartridge (need attention).
For my fridge I bought a regulator for disposable cartridges with threaded neck (EN417) Like this one: http://www.towsure.com/product/Cadac_EN ... r_Assembly
The 500g (or 450g) disposable canisters are hold on for a full weekend
