1) Stack your frozen food in the order that you\u2019re going to eat it, and (if possible) open the freezer only once a day to take what you need. This will reduce the lid\u2019s opening time, and the fridge\u2019s overall power consumption.<\/p>\n

2) Defrost your meat by placing it in the fridge compartment the night before; doing so will help to keep the fridge cool.<\/p>\n

3) Fitting baskets to your camping fridge \/ freezer will ensure better air circulation and consistent cooling.<\/p>\n

4) Always keep your camping fridge \/ freezer’s latches closed for optimum seal performance.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"National
Make sure your fridge’s latches are always closed. This will save battery power by preventing cold air leakage.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

 <\/p>\n

5) Never pack items around the fridge\u2019s ventilation slots; doing so will raise the fridge\u2019s operating temperature, cause it to work harder, and use more battery power.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Camping
Never pack other items around your fridge’s breathing vents. Doing so will cause heat build up and increased power consumption.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

 <\/p>\n

6) Use the thickest power cable possible to ensure minimal electrical resistance and maximum voltage supply.<\/p>\n

7) Always strap your fridge down. Most camping fridge \/ freezer failures are caused by knocks, bumps and vibrations.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Ratchet
The number one cause of fridge damage is due to vibrations and failure to strap the unit down.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

 <\/p>\n

8) Drinks in cans cool faster than those in bottles.<\/p>\n

9) Although your National Luna camping fridge \/ freezer is capable of subzero temperatures (-30\u00baC in some models), setting the freezer this low is often a waste of battery power. In some cases, ice-cream will need to be kept at \u201318\u00baC, but everything else can be stored at \u201310\u00baC.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Fridge
If your vehicle is forced to park in direct sunlight, it would be best to remove your fridge and place it in a shady location.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

 <\/p>\n

10) Keep your camping fridge as full as possible. An empty fridge is less power-efficient.<\/p>\n

11) Always carry spare fuses for your camping fridge \/ freezer.<\/p>\n

12) Never place warm leftovers inside your fridge, doing so will cause the unit to work harder than necessary and use more battery power.<\/p>\n

13) Vacuum-packed meat will last longer and may not need freezing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
