We have the 19qt version of this (available for $128). It’s really good. We use it primarily as a freezer to regenerate ice packs for an ice chest while camping. They’re low current draw (ours is less than 4a). A 100w solar panel and a battery will power these off grid.

Interesting, it looks like it has an actual compressor/refrigerant setup. The one I have/style I'm familiar with uses a peltier cooler. I can say we like the one we have and use it quite a bit. One nice thing is we have an AC adapter for ours as well and when traveling it has the advantage that you can just haul it into any hotel room with you and plug it in- not worrying about if there's a mini fridge or transferring contents around.

Yes, which is why it can go all the way down to zero F, which is why it’s great for refreezing ice packs, etc. It’s way more efficient than either the Peltier types (which typically only cool about 40 degrees below ambient) or even the absorption type traditionally found in campers (that run on 12/120v or propane).

It comes w an AC adapter, which makes it nice.
 
We recently bought one of those to carry food when traveling…frozen food this trip, but we’ll see how much refrigerator vs freezer use it gets in the future.
 
I bought 100 of these in China, had my logo printed on them and gave them as gifts to customers last Christmas. Think I paid $30 a piece for them before freight and tariff

Only had two of them quit working and mine has sat in my hangar. Plan to test it out at OSH this year
