Read: 19 mins.For years, I wished for a car freezer with a built-in, rechargeable battery from Goal Zero or Jackery. Little did I know that Acopower already provided that PLUS solar charging with its LiONCooler X series of appliances. Did the X40A answer this outdoor geek's prayers? Read to find out!
Read: 15 mins.It has been nearly a year since I purchased my first 12V/110V car freezer, and since then I had reviewed and compared six of them. All were coincidentally rebranded units manufactured by Alpicool, but they lacked features I increasingly longed for: dual-temperature storage zones, transport wheels, removable wire racks, drain hole, and remote app control. The Costway 53qt car freezer was a popular, affordable choice among outdoorsy people with the additional properties I was looking for. Was it better than my favorite Foho appliances? In nearly every way, YES... Almost!
Read: 4 mins.There are many hidden settings/program options for the Euhomy CF-55-H Car Freezer (58qt). This article will go over some basic settings the manual describes, how, and WHY to change the more advanced items. All of them can be configured via the physical control panel or through the Alpicool "Car Fridge Freezer" smartphone app available for both Android and Apple iOS.
Read: 14 mins.Over the past 2.5 months, I had the fortunate opportunity to test and review 3 car freezers/refrigerators that could be powered by the 12V port/battery of a car. Their energy efficiency allowed them to be powered by a battery power station and supplemented with solar panels. We came to love the Foho over the Rockpals and Domende ones, and in this review, we look at the smallest model of that product line: the 34qt Foho BCD-32. There was much to like!
Read: 6 mins.Last year, I purchased an Acer PM161Q ($130) to supplement my then-Surface Pro 5 with a secondary display. It was a first-of-its kind, portable monitor that was lightweight, but it also was a nightmare of a device to use due to compatibility issues. Turns out, Thunderbolt 3 was required that not many devices yet supported. Fast-forward 7 months later, and more computers now support that technology. What stood out about this UPerfect 15.6" monitor were its touchscreen, built-in battery, IPS display, and quad speakers for about 25% less than the Asus Zenscreen MB16AMT I had been eyeing for months. Here is my evaluation of the UPerfect portable display.
