Stay Cool Wherever You Go with Portable Fridges & Freezers
These units plug into your vehicle's 12V cigarette lighter socket or switch to 240V mains power at camp or home. Many models feature dual-zone options, allowing you to use one section as a fridge and another as a freezer simultaneously – ideal for keeping snags frozen while drinks stay cold. Capacities range from compact 30-litre units for day trips to 80-litre models that can store a week's supplies for the family.
We stock trusted brands like Brass Monkey and Dometic, renowned for their reliable designs built to withstand Australian conditions. Unlike traditional eskies, these fridges use efficient compressor cooling that performs even in hot weather, with adjustable temperatures from -20°C to +20°C. Many models include digital displays, USB charging ports, and low-voltage protection to safeguard your car battery.
Portable electric coolers are incredibly versatile. Use them in your 4WD, boat, caravan, or as an extra fridge at home during Christmas. Built tough with reinforced corners and secure lids, they're designed to handle corrugated roads and rough handling.
