The <\/span>Adventure Kings range of fridge\/freezers <\/b><\/a>are invaluable pieces of camping equipment that have completely removed the headache of finding a source of ice to keep your beers cold while on a remote bush adventure.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For such a fantastic piece of <\/span>camping gear<\/b><\/a> it would be a shame to leave it in storage for most of the year after you\u2019ve had your yearly camping trip away, especially for those of us who can only manage a handful of trips each year, it\u2019s a big investment to go relatively unused.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thankfully your <\/span>Adventure Kings fridge\/freezer<\/b><\/a> is extremely versatile and can easily run off both 12V and 240V power sources the added benefit to this is that it draws very little electrical current, so after your first camping trip away with your <\/span>fridge<\/b><\/a> you can take it right out of your 4WD or camper trailer and plug it straight in to the power point on your back patio to use as a <\/span>beer fridge<\/b><\/a>.<\/a> It\u2019s also very handy as an overflow for your kitchen freezer during Christmas holidays or after big grocery hauls, allowing you to set the temperature and stash your cold goods until you need them.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

By keeping your <\/span>Adventure Kings fridge<\/b><\/a> plugged in around the home rather than buried under a mountain of camping gear in the shed it\u2019s going to remain at a colder temperature and therefore already be prechilled, making it far more accessible, and ready to to throw back in the rear of your 4WD and head to the local cricket game or mates place for a BBQ.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Another thing you can do with your <\/span>12v camping fridge<\/b><\/a> is to leave it in your 4WD full time, this option is gaining in popularity. If you have a simple dual battery 12V set up that uses an <\/span>agm deep cycle battery<\/b><\/a>, a <\/span>DC-DC Charger<\/b><\/a> or <\/span>Voltage sensing<\/b> Isolator<\/b><\/a> and an <\/span>Adventure Kings 110v permanent mounted solar panel<\/b><\/a> or an <\/span>Adventure Kings 120w folding<\/b> <\/a>solar blanket<\/a> <\/b>you have everything you need to keep your <\/span>Adventure Kings Fridge<\/b><\/a> running all day and night. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you\u2019re going to go down this track and use your <\/span>Adventure Kings Fridg<\/a>e<\/b> in your 4WD daily, a handy <\/span>fridge slide<\/b><\/a> like the <\/span>Dunn and Watson slides <\/b><\/a>and a <\/span>Fridge cage<\/b><\/a> will ensure you have easy access while keeping the unit protected from being crowded and overheated during your travels. Keeping your <\/span>fridge<\/b><\/a> running in your 4WD 24\/7 is a great option for people who want to keep their lunch and cold refreshments on jobsites or for those that travel long distances often whilst touring.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you have plenty of fridge space at home and need to clear even more room in the back of your 4WD between camping trips, you might intend to store your fridge away between adventures. <\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>If this is the case, you will need to follow a few simple steps to ensure your fridge stays clean and odour free for many years of happy use to come:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Firstly, remove all the left-over contents from the fridge before storage, this saves nasty smelly surprises like rotten meat, spoiled fruit and even sour milk\u2026. YUK!<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>Wash the inside of your fridge with warm soapy water, and wipe down the outside to ensure it is free of dirt and food scraps<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>Once empty it is a good idea to allow your <\/span>Adventure Kings fridge\/freezer<\/b><\/a> to air dry completely with the lid open in a well-ventilated area, this will allow any condensation from the refrigeration process to dry off without getting moldy or allowing mildew to set it.<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>Store your <\/span>Adventure Kings Camp Fridge<\/b><\/a> in a cool dry space with good drainage this stops if from growing mould or getting damp, and possibly having its internal electrical components damaged with corrosion. <\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>Do not use your<\/span> Adventure Kings<\/b> fridge<\/b><\/a> to store utensils, plates or cooking gear in between trips this inhibits airflow and can cause rusting of the camping utensils to stain the inside of your fridge.<\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span>Another tip to get more from your fridge is to consider an <\/span>Adventure Kings fridge\/freezer<\/b> cover<\/b><\/a> , these covers are great for adding additional insulation to your fridge resulting in faster cooling, using less energy and allowing things to stay cooler longer, a cover will also protect your Adventure Kings fridge after your camping trip, preventing any dings and bangs from damaging your investment! <\/span>
