This innovation is going to sound a little ironic. It is a solar powered fridge. If you’ve ever wanted to keep a fridge outside without having to hide it in the garage, now you can.
Harnessing the power of the sun, the fridge can go completely wireless and maintain a temperature from -5 degrees (F) to -20 degrees (F) using the 400amp / hr battery.
You can put the solar powered fridge on the deck at the cottage or cart it onto the boat for an afternoon of cool drinking and it will last as long as you can.
