Why You Should Trust Us

As you can see from all the included links, GearJunkie’s editors have reviewed quite a few electric coolers as well as standard ice chests, soft and hard shells, and even backpack coolers. We know our way around outdoor products and make it our mission to provide you with the best intel we can on the gear you need.

For this guide, we tested five different models over 3 years. We also researched the highest-rated, best-selling, and most positively reviewed electric coolers out there. We’ve already done deep-dive reviews on a number of these products, and you can read those particular articles for even more information on why we’re recommending each of these electric coolers.

Buyer’s Guide: How to Choose the Best Electric Cooler

Size and Capacity

As you can already tell from our list of recommendations, electric coolers are available in a wide range of sizes. For the most part, the bigger the size, the more capacity the cooler will have. However, bigger is not necessarily better. More size will also increase its weight and footprint in your car.

On average, electric coolers weigh about a pound per liter of storage capacity. Keep this in mind as you compare coolers to see which has the best compromise of portability to capacity.

When choosing the right size for your electric cooler, consider your average trip length and the number of people in your group. For quick weekend getaways, you might choose a smaller cooler. If you have a large family, even a short trip could require a bigger cooler with a lot of storage space.

Number of Temperature Zones

Multiple temperature zones add versatility to your cooler, but they tend to add cost. If you plan to bring both refrigerated and frozen foods, you’ll need an electric cooler with dual zones. On this list, Dometic, ARB, National Luna, and ICECO offer dual-zone portable refrigerators.

Dual zones could also be necessary for people who travel with medications that need to be refrigerated. This allows storing prescriptions at the correct temperature no matter what else is in the cooler. Both zones have the same temperature range, so you can use either side as a fridge or freezer, depending on your needs.

Weight and Portability

For many electric coolers, size goes hand-in-hand with portability. Smaller units are easier to carry or store (like between the bucket seats of a van, so your kids can access snacks during a road trip), whereas larger electric coolers would need to go in the trunk.

As you read the weights listed in these product specs, keep in mind these are the weights of the coolers when empty. If it seems like a lot, it is. These miniature portable refrigerators have more mechanical parts than simple ice coolers, and they can add up to a lot of weight.

Once you include beverages and food, you can easily increase the weight listed to something difficult to carry. So consider how you will load it, and whether you need to regularly remove your fridge from the vehicle while in use.

Shelves and Organization

Some electric coolers have different areas separated by shelving and baskets. This can be helpful for keeping your food and drinks organized so you always know where everything is. Even in an electric cooler that does not have multiple zones, baskets and shelves are vital to food organization.

For example, the smaller Dometic Portable Cooler, our best overall pick, has a removable basket. That makes it easy to access large items stored at the bottom of the cooler.

The single basket can also move back and forth depending on where you choose to keep tall items. If this storage system sounds like an important feature for your next electric cooler, you’ll direct your attention to Dometic, ARB, and National Luna products.

Temperature Control

While it may not be necessary to keep your electric cooler at a specific temperature down to the degree, you’ll want the precision of setting it within a couple of degrees. For wine, ice cream, or medication, having decent temperature control is an important factor in your decision of which electric cooler to purchase.

That said, keep in mind the temperature may vary within the cooler by a couple of degrees, depending on where the cooling mechanism and thermostat are located. For example, the Kohree Portable Refrigerator has a standard deviation of ±4 degrees.

While Amazon reviewers give this temperature control 4 out of 5 stars, some noted the temperature fluctuated by more than 6 degrees from its setting. Higher-priced, better-quality coolers like ARB, Dometic, and National Luna will give more precise temperature control.

Cooling Mechanism

Related to temperature control is the cooler’s temperature range capability. There are different types of electric coolers, the two most common being compressor coolers and thermoelectric coolers. All of the coolers featured on this list are compressor coolers because they offer a wider range of temperatures.

Thermoelectric coolers are reliant on the ambient temperature in their cooling mechanism and can offer an average of 40 degrees of cooling capability compared to the outside temperature. Compressor coolers, by comparison, can maintain sub-freezing temperatures no matter the ambient temperature.

One benefit of thermoelectric coolers is they require less power, meaning less cost, but this comes at a great loss of functionality.

Price

Electric coolers are available at an incredible range of prices, from a couple of hundred dollars to a couple of thousand. And in our experience, you get what you pay for.

Among top brands, you’ll see prices varying within a couple of hundred dollars for comparable features and sizes. Attributes such as enhanced durability and weather resistance will also add to the price of a cooler.

On the low end of the scale, you’ll find a slew of Amazon products at a fraction of the price of name brands. While these coolers will be fine for the occasional weekend camper, they tend to have less consistent cooling abilities and are much less durable.

If you’re looking for a highly durable product that will last through some tough times, it would make sense to spring for a more expensive cooler. Our favorite durable investments are Dometic, National Luna, and ARB.

If you’re looking for a budget-friendly option with no frills or add-ons, the Kohree Portable Refrigerator is our recommendation for an affordable and functional cooler.

Durability

One final feature you shouldn’t overlook is durability. Electric coolers are made from many different materials, including ABS plastic, metal composites, and steel casing. If you’re going to spend a pretty penny on an electric cooler, make sure it’s a solid investment and that it will last.

The level of durability you need will depend on where you plan to take the cooler. For example, if it will be stored in the bed of your truck during an off-road adventure, you’ll need something that can withstand some bumps and bruises.

In this case, the ARB Zero’s extreme corner moldings were made just for you. And ARB’s Element is a totally weatherproof electric cooler that might make sense if you live in a rainy area or plan to store it outdoors.

FAQ

In short, yes! Electric coolers are a great investment. They keep your food fresh while on the road, and you won’t have a soggy mess of melted ice in the bottom.

These electric coolers can achieve and maintain sub-zero temperatures, so you don’t have to worry about your ice cream melting. Plus, if you have enough power, say from a sustainable source like a solar panel and power bank, you can keep your electric cooler running forever and use it as a standard home fridge and freezer.

One caveat: If you’re only using your cooler for drinks and snacks during a day at the beach, an electric cooler is probably not worth the expense. In this case, you should check out our reviews of the best coolers and the best soft coolers to find the best brands of traditional ice coolers. For hikers looking for super-portable soft coolers, head over to our review of the best backpack coolers.

These coolers have really changed the way we camp. And for hunters and anglers, you can even process and freeze your game meat in the field.

If you’re looking for something that can make ice, last multiple days, and save you the expense and annoyance of dealing with standard ice chests and wasted food, the extra cost of an electric cooler is worth the investment.

Yes, for most electric coolers, you could put ice in it, but why would you need to? These electric coolers can maintain sub-freezing temperatures on their own and even make ice for you.

If you’re hoping to put ice in an electric cooler and use it as a regular cooler without power, we don’t recommend it. The cooling elements that allow it to function as a refrigerator are both heavy and clunky. Once you add ice, you’d have limited room for your food or beverages, and it would be much heavier than a traditional ice chest.

Consistently rated as one of the best electric cooler brands, Dometic offers a wide range of sizes and options. There are, however, many other great brands to choose from if you can’t afford the relatively steep prices of Dometic products.

Other highly rated brands include Engel, ARB, and National Luna. We also love the dedication to sustainability by GoSun. If you can afford the investment of an ARB electric cooler, it really is a great brand for its incredible durability.

Yes, an electric cooler can definitely drain your battery if you leave it plugged in when you’re not driving. However, quality electric coolers have built-in battery monitoring and will shut down before draining your battery beyond its ability to start your car.

Depending on the power draw, cooler size, and temperature, it could drain a car battery in a couple of hours to a couple of days. And at that point, the cooler will turn off, possibly ruining your food.

Therefore, you should plan to keep your cooler plugged into the car while driving. But when stopped, it’s wise to have a secondary power source in case your car battery runs low.

A large battery bank or solar panel and battery pack (we love the system from Generark!) is a good way to get extra energy to your cooler.

It depends. Some electric coolers may be waterproof, but they’re not necessarily. While they do have a tight seal for insulation purposes that would keep the rain out, many electric coolers have exposed electric elements.

For example, the Kohree Portable Refrigerator has a USB port on the top of the unit for charging your cellphone or other small electronics. It would be a bad idea to leave this in the rain. Even Dometic electric coolers are only splashproof, and the company does not recommend leaving the coolers exposed to continuous rain or flooding.

If you’re looking for a waterproof cooler you can confidently leave outside, check out the fully weatherproof ARB Element. This cooler is similar to the ARB Zero that we reviewed above, but it has a few notable differences.

Not only is this electric cooler extremely rugged, but it also has an electronic locking system to protect your food. It’s a bit more expensive than the Zero when you compare coolers of the same capacity, making it by far the priciest model on this list. If you need the ability to store your food in the bed of your trunk or outside a tent, this electric cooler would be worth the cost.

Yes, electric coolers can be used as refrigerators and are often just called portable refrigerators. The Dometic CFX3 75 Dual Zone Powered Cooler is a popular choice among people who live in vans or truck campers. These units are great for small spaces, as they are compact and can even function as seating.

For context, Dometic builds refrigerators for everything from yachts to RVs to airplanes!

If you plan to leave it plugged in all the time, just make sure you have a sufficient power source. If you keep an electric cooler plugged into your car overnight, it may turn off once the battery gets low. For full-time usage, you should consider getting a solar panel, secondary battery, or backup power banks.


Dometic Powered Cooler and Lithium Battery

Dometic’s PLB40 lithium-iron battery pairs up with the company’s CFX3 powered cooler for off-grid outings

When traveling, I like to keep snacks at the ready. Half an hour after hitting the road, I’m rifling through bags and the cooler looking for something to munch on.

I recently discovered that a powered cooler is a more practical traveling companion than a standard ice chest, where you have to dig through ice to get a dripping can of soda or a water-logged bag of carrots. Dometic’s line of CFX3 powered coolers, aka portable refrigerators, can be powered from the 12-volt DC source in your vehicle, a standard 120-volt AC outlet, or, promoting ultimate portability, with the company’s PLB40 lithium-iron-phosphate battery.

CFX3-series coolers are equipped with a battery monitor that protects against excessive battery discharging when leaving the cooler plugged into a 12-volt DC source without the engine running. The 3 Stage Dynamic Battery Protection System will automatically shut down the refrigerator when the supply voltage falls below a set level.

The rugged CFX3 models are loosely classified as “off-road coolers” and can deep-freeze to minus 7 degrees Fahrenheit. The coolers employ a low-maintenance refrigerant circuit with a compressor to provide cooling. These portable refrigerators are gaining popularity with the small-trailer crowd, where they fit nicely into a compact space or outdoor kitchen.

By the time you’re reading this, Dometic will have upgraded these coolers to include six CFX3 models that have 35- to 100-liter capacities — or in layman’s terms, holding 50 to 150 12-ounce cans. The latest-generation product has improved cooling technology, according to the company, and a reinforced external frame and aluminum-alloy handles. One of them, the CFX3 55IM, has an independent rapid-freeze plate chamber with silicone trays for making ice, while the main compartment remains a refrigerator. According to the company, this is the first such product in the world.

CFX3s are equipped with Bluetooth, and an app with diagnostic tools that monitors and controls cooler temperature and energy consumption and sends alerts to let you know if the lid was left open.

The cooler’s compressor is quiet, kicking on and off occasionally, with a noise level rated at 42 decibels, which is in the “normal” range for a refrigerator. Dometic lists energy consumption at 1 amp at 90 degrees F ambient temperature and the cooler set at 41 degrees. In general, the test cooler stayed about 2 degrees colder than it was set for. It doesn’t get much simpler to set the temperature, and the large digital display is easy to read even in the brightest sunshine.

Weighing just over 40 pounds empty, the 60-can-capacity cooler has a section that’s about 6 inches deep (over the compressor) for smaller items, and the main compartment with a removable wire basket and divider. The cooler is well insulated, utilizing 55-millimeter-thick walls and a heavy-duty lid that latches into place. It cools down quickly, dropping 15 to 20 degrees in less than half an hour. An interior LED light comes on automatically when the lid is opened to prevent rummaging around in the dark. Thick folding handles make it easy for two people to transport when loaded with food and beverages.

BATTERY POWER

We paired the cooler with Dometic’s portable PLB40 battery that can be charged using a 12-volt DC accessory socket (the battery also has a two-pin 12-volt DC connector), 120-volt AC, or solar power. While you’re cruising down the road the PLB40 can be charged via the vehicle’s 12-volt accessory outlet and power the cooler at the same time. This comes in handy if the vehicle has only one accessory outlet.

It’s Cold in Here

Dometic’s line of powered coolers includes the CFF, CF, CDF, TropiCool and CC series in addition to the CFX3 test cooler. Each series is based on three cooling technologies: thermoelectric, absorption and compressor for different climates and cooling needs. Capacities range from 10.5 liters to 100 liters. Besides the rugged CFX3, choices include those with a shoulder strap and others sized for handy access on the passenger seat during travel.

Tipping the scales at just over 16 pounds, the 40-amp-hour/500-watt-hour-capacity battery is rated to provide 40 hours of refrigeration. A stainless-steel handle makes it convenient to carry the battery. How long the battery will power the cooler varies based on ambient temperature, the temperature the cooler is set at, how often you’re in and out of it, and the cold contents of the cooler, among other things.

On one outing, with ambient temperatures ranging from 80 to 95 degrees (the cooler was in shade) and the temperature at the warmest setting (50 degrees), since it was loaded only with drinks and bread, the battery was usable down to 20 percent. The PLB40 lasted for about 30 hours over the course of three days of noncontinuous operation (switched off during the night). On another trip, with ambient temps in the 40s and high 60s and the cooler set for 35 degrees, the battery lasted about 35 hours.

The PLB40 has tagged along on outings ranging from 42 to 95 degrees and has reliably powered the cooler. Insulated covers are sold separately that provide a barrier from sunlight and heat and improve the compressor’s efficiency. And as a bonus, the battery has two USB ports for charging cell phones.

Pricing for the 35-liter CFX3 35 is $899 and up to $1,399 for the 100-liter CFX3 100 and includes a five-year limited warranty (three years on everything and additional two years on compressor parts). The $849.99 PLB40 battery has a two-year warranty.

Processor elements become hot during operation and require constant cooling to keep them running smoothly. For example, the CPU and graphics chip can heat up to 100 degrees without cooling. It also affects the time of year, or rather the ambient temperature. So in winter the processor can work without interruption, and in the summer you will need a powerful cooling system. The Indicator online store offers a range of cooling systems from leading manufacturers: Aerocool (AeroKul), Chieftec (Chiftek), CoolerMaster (CoolerMaster), DeepCool (Dipkul), Titan (Titan), Zalman (Zalman) and others.

  • The liquid cooling system is the most effective means of cooling the device. Such a system takes up quite a lot of space in the system unit. Such cooling systems are used for more powerful devices. Among the advantages – efficiency and relatively quiet operation. Among the minuses are the high price and energy consumption. There is also the risk of condensation.
  • Air cooling with a cooler is the most common method. Less effective in hot weather. A larger diameter cooler will cope with cooling at high air temperatures better.
