I just got a 12v compressor cooler for my car for when I go grocery shopping because that way, I don't have to go straight home when food shopping.

[@caver6292]

@@ghilly_one1720 Pass-through charging is the process that allows your power bank or portable power station to be plugged into the main source while your device that needs charging is also plugged into it. It's like allowing two devices to be recharged at the same time....in this case the fridge is just consuming power, only one item-the power bank, or battery, is being charged while being depleted at the same time by the fridge. The trick is to manage to charge it at the same rate the fridge consumes or faster.

Obviously you know this but some folks don’t seem to understand these units are NOT coolers, also it is NOT a cool box, it’s got a compressor so it’s a REAL refrigerator. A cooler, an cool box, and a compressor fridge are all different devices and function entirely different. A compressor fridge is a refrigerator like in a house. Difference being Instead on being large and inside one’s home, this is simply a smaller portable unit. While they look vastly different they function the same, therefore both are refrigerators, “compressor refrigerators” to be exact.

I'm considering different options.

I'm sure that will work fine. At night, with the solar panel drawing no power and not charging, the fridge should be good. Keep in mind, I'm Canadian, living about 500 miles north of the border and I do not get Texas weather. Any advice? I just don't want to buy the 300 and end up having to get a 500. Thank you.

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

If you can, I’d for sure recommend at least the 500. And there are a lot of 500-700 watt hour options that are LifePo4 battery chemistry unlike the Jackery that is a much safer and higher quality battery than the NMC chemistry Jackery uses. Most of the time much cheaper than Jackery too👍🏻 Oupes, Oukitel, Ecoflow …..all have superior battery stations than the Jackery in my opinion now.

[@Paul-ou1rx]

When the cooler is 3/4 full with cans and soda/beer would that create a "cold-sink" to have the cooler not have to work no hard once they are at the chilled temperature? They could even be prechilled in the home fridge. I have read that this is helpful when the cooler is being opened and closed during regular use.

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

Absolutely. That is the best, to pre chill, or put in cold items. It helps the compressor not work as hard to get down to temperature or maintain temperature

Recommendation please. My son and I are going on a 7day Boy Scout camping trip and I need a good power bank to last all week.

I won’t have access to recharge the power bank bec not Close to any outlet so I need it to have enough power to last 7 days. I’m ok with solar recharge if that helps but not sure how reliable solar will be? I’d prefer power bank not station but if station recommended I’d prefer under 10lbs

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

Sorry, but you’re really not going to find anything that would last 7 days for under 10 pounds. You might be able to stretch a 500 watt station with runn8mg fans all night; recharging phones and other very lights tasks, but it would be very close.

Loved this video!!

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

My Jackery never shut off, but it bud true if no power is drawn on the Jackery for an extended period of time it will shut itself off to prevent battery drainage. I’ve found that I use my cooler enough (opening the lid) that it requires the compressor to kick on often enough that I haven’t had this issue. You could also try setting the temp just a few degrees cooler to make the fridge run just a little harder.
