Summer and road trip season is around the corner! Just about time to go out with your family and friends. When it comes to outdoor adventures, having the right equipment can make your experience a lot better. One essential item, besides portable power stations, that is often overlooked but can greatly enhance your experience is a portable refrigerator. These compact and efficient cooling units are designed to keep your food and beverages chilled and fresh in the most remote and rugged environments.

In this article, we will explore five incredible benefits of portable refrigerators for outdoor adventures.

What's The Wattage Of Portable Refrigerators?

The wattage of portable refrigerators can vary depending on the specific model, size, and brand. Generally, portable refrigerators have power ratings ranging from around 30 watts to 100 watts.

However, it's important to note that the wattage can also depend on factors such as the cooling capacity, insulation quality, and energy efficiency of the refrigerator. It's recommended to check the product specifications of a specific portable refrigerator model you are interested in.

How To Calculate The Working Time When Pairing With A Portable Power Station?

You can use the formula below to calculate the working time using a portable power station to power a portable refrigerator:

Working Time(hours)=PPS's capacity*0.85/powering devices' operating power.

(The reason we multiply by 0.85 is that the inverter that changes the 12V DC power to 120V AC power isn’t 100% efficient, but somewhere about 85%. Click to learn more about the conversion rate)

For example: Let’s take POWEREPUBLIC T1200 as an example, which has a rated wattage of 1,200W and a battery capacity of 1,110Wh. If you want to power a 100W portable refrigerator, then the working time will be:

• 1,100Wh*0.85/100=9.35 hours

In this case, T1200 can power a 100W portable refrigerator for at least 9 hours. Also, if you want to power other devices simultaneously, you have to add up the power to estimate a more precise working time.

Five Benefits Of Portable Refrigerators

After knowing some basic information about portable refrigerators, let’s dive in to explore some incredible benefits of using them for your outdoor venture.

• Fresh Food and Cold Beverages On-The-Go: Whether you're camping in the wilderness, hiking in the mountains, or embarking on a road trip, a portable refrigerator ensures that you have access to fresh fruits, vegetables, meats, and dairy products.

• Extended Camping Trips and Off-Grid Living: Portable refrigerators are designed to be powered by various energy sources, including portable power stations, solar panels, and even car outlets. This versatility allows you to keep your food cool for longer periods, making it possible to stay in remote areas without the need for frequent resupply trips.

• Health and Safety: Portable Refrigerators prevent food spoilage and bacterial growth by keeping your perishable items at safe temperatures. This feature is particularly important when dealing with raw meats, seafood, and dairy products, which are prone to spoilage and can cause food-borne
