Thank you for your easy explanation. I've seen other videos that talk about the different settings but yours was the best!
Thanks. . Your explanation was very helpful and most appreciated.
This has helped. I had an f1 code and changing the voltage to medium will help
Jay, update. I coated the outer white packing with Flex seal. 3 coats makes it rubber coated and more durable.
This is great thank you so much
Thank you SO much!!!
Thanks! I just bought the dual zone T-50 w/ LG Compressor and wanted to calibrate the temperature reading and couldn't find any way to get to the E codes other than your video. Your power/settings button, release power while holding the settings button triggered the E codes and that is where I can calibrate... E6 is the code needed to calibrate I believe. The Alpicool app doesn't allow for this adjustment as far as I can tell.
Actually, after doing a bit more research, the Alpicool App has settings for these indicated as TC: T>/= -6 degrees C, TC:-12
Did you make a video about the calibration? Also I woke up ti a completely dead battery. Shouldn't the battery protector have kicked it off?
The USB port will run a USB fan! I have a 4", 3-speed, running on high speed plugged in to my frig. My Alpicool is the A50, 1-zone, and it's excellent.
this help me to change from F to C
Mine ran for 2 years and I accidentally ran it for 3hrs white it’s open.. doesn’t cool down anymore but the compressor does turn on.. something overheated possibly my mistake :/ will buy another one this is a really quiet and a good fridge/freezer..
THANK YOU!
Thank you!
Thanks for the video. I was wondering if you could set the refrigerator from Celsius to Fahrenheit. They (imars) did not send me a real manual. The Imars brand is the same as the one you.showed just a different name. I do like both refrigerators I bought. They are not big and bulky like the large refrigerator I have. I also like the freezer opton because I can set the unit just below freezing.when we travel. Because when you stop somewhere the unit shuts down with the car. It helps keep things cold all the time.
Yes watch the video at the two minute mark for how to convert the display to Fahrenheit.
@@summetj I watched the whole video and I did get my unit on Fahrenheit. now I wont have to convert every time I want to change the temperature. we will see how these units last and how well they work in the car. also good during power outages.
Hi I’m still confused about the battery protection settings?? You answered a comment below about this but referred to “H1, H2 and H3” but the settings are H, M and L? It’s not clear on the website, instruction manual or anywhere really which of the 3 settings protects the battery the most, and at what voltage the fridge will cut out on each setting..
All I know is that H1 is 9.6v off, H2 is 10.1v off, and H3 is 11.1v off, so H3 is going to protect your battery the most.
Jay Summet I later found out that H1 is L, H2 is M and H3 is H. The version of the fridge that I have has the settings L, M and H instead of H1 etc.
Also how do I tell its charging without turning it on.
Thanks for the explanation. I have a question: the fridge doesn,t work when I stop the car. I usually connect it to a portable powerstation, but I,d like to connect the frige directly to car battery when I stop for a short while. How can I do It? Thanks in advance
You have to find and connect to a circuit that does not turn off when the ignition is turned off. The biggest danger is that if you forget and leave the fridge on it will drain your car's battery and then you will not be able to start.
Hi, do you have any idea what the power consumption in eco mode is, and also what voltages does it cut out at.
Check out the description and video on my Full Review Video: ruclips.net/video/3RCeKa9Bk0M/видео.html
It's hard for me to decide if the size is sufficient for some food (butter, cheese, etc.) for weekend camping trips. Would you say it fits the purpose?
Yes it should be sufficient for that as long as you're not trying to keep all your drinks in it as well.
@@summetj I am currently planning an all in one camping box with secondary battery system, fridge, gas burner and cooking supplies plus a water tank for the sparetire groove.
Greetings from Germany, your video helped me to decide which box to choose👍
does this need a power source to always be on? or is the battery chargeable and able to turn on for a few hours without a power source?
thanks
This particular model does not have an internal battery so requires an external battery or power source to run. I believe they do sell a different model that has an internal battery. If you put a blue ice packet in to freeze it would act like a cooler between power stops.
What's the high, mid, low useful for?
Awsome video! Could you please make a video on how to connect fridge to phone app?
I understand the Amazon version does not have bluetooth. If you have a unit with bluetooth, download the Smart Car Fridge app and follow instructions to pair the unit.
any idea what the other "E" modes are ?? Cause I have E 1-10. No clue about the rest
No idea for E9 or E10, my manual only goes up to E8 (see my other replies for what E1-8 are).
@@summetj no worries. Thanks for getting back to me
Jay, I’m a bit confused E1, E2, E3, E4 settings, what are these settings for? I’m assuming E1 and E2 are set to limit your temperature range adjustment.
E1 - Lowest temp setting on control panel, E2 - Highest temp setting on control panel, E3 - Temp return setting (degrees above threshold before it turns the cooler back on), E4 - Soft Start setting (min delay before restart) E5- C vs F temp display.
Excellent. Thank you
@@summetj What about the other parameters? E6,E7....
@@Randy001 E6,7,8 are all temperature compensation settings. E6 is for temps above 7 deg C, E7 is for temps between 7 and negative 12 deg C, and E8 is for temps below -12 deg C. They are only useful if you have a calibrated thermometer and want to re-calibrate the built in thermometer to match. They basically allow you to tweak the temperature curve of the built in thermometer.
@@summetj i have the Alpicool C20 and I have it on Eco L and it keeps draining my deep cycle marine battery when I leave it on during they day while I work. Any help is appreciated. I've looked everywhere and so far your explanation is user friendly. Should I check the E functions? Is the LMH next to Eco about running on low or shutting it off when the battery goes low?
can you please tell me what is the temp range
I m in hot area and I want it to Maintain 21-degree c or 70 f
I'm afraid I have it in storage right now so I can't check the maximum temp, but I never tried moving it that high. (It's designed to keep things in the 0-40 F range, so not sure if they anticipated people trying to just maintain 70 F....you might need an external temp probe connected to a temp controller / relay to turn power on/off to the entire unit for that.)
@@summetj thank you
Is there a setting to turn down or off the beeping sound when pressing the buttons?
Possibly, but I don't know it. (You can always remove the beeper from the circuit board if you want to go nuclear....)
Where should this be set when using on ac indoors on freezer mode?
Not sure what you mean by "this", but if it's the battery power protection feature, it won't matter when running on AC.
Alguém que já tenha esse freezer, sabe me dizer se ela funciona sem estar ligada na tomada ou no carro? Aqui na minha mostra que a bateria está completa... Queria saber como se usa isso ao ar livre...
Este congelador en particular no tiene batería interna, por lo que solo funcionará cuando se conecte a una fuente de alimentación externa (batería de automóvil de 12 V o adaptador de CA). Funciona como refrigerador cuando no está enchufado. Necesitaría un banco de energía externo con una salida de 12 voltios para alimentarlo.
That was easy.
How long does it take to get to temp?
Only 30 minutes if it is empty. See my other review video for times with stuff inside.
Does it have a battery in it that runs it over night?
You can run it off if a 12v battery, but have to provide your own.
Thank you for the info. Anybody can help to choose H1, H2 and H3. Thanks
The H settings let you pick how low to let your supply battery go before the fridge turns off.
H1 9.6V off;10.9V on
H2 10.1V off;11.4V on
H3 11.1V off;12.4V on
H3 protects your battery the most, while H1 gives you the longest runtime (at the risk of discharging your battery more than is healthy).
@@summetj Which button to set for H1, H2 and H3. Thanks
@@mohdsommohdamil9604 Power on, and press"SET" button for 3 seconds until it appears ”H1” or “ H2” or “H3” display, press “ SET” button to choose from the three stages of car battery protection stages: “ H1”, “H2”, “H3”
@@summetj Thank you for the info. This morning I tried to do, its only can change the battery protecting setting H, M & L and the H1, H2, nd H3 did not display. Iam using portable battery. When I reset to factory default, there is no sign of H1, H2 or H3, other sign ok. Any other way or my fridge can't do that. Mine is C15. Thank you.
@@summetj oh gosh ... I'm checking that asap.
Hi how to connect alpicool c15 with phone?
My model did not have the bluetooth phone app connection, so I'm afraid I can't help you with that.
I have a F2 error
Whats a good F???? Please I just got this mine says 58 now was at 63
You typically want 38-40 fahrenheit for a fridge, 0 for a freezer.
@@summetj OK yeah I think I want more of a freezer.Right now its saying 5F and sounds like it shut off I dont hear anything.
@@summetj Is that normal?
@@summetj Thank you!! I'm kind of confused I was thinking the fridge doesn't have to plugged in all the time I thought you could charge it then turn it on somehow.
@@Kaitlin24247 They make a more expensive model that comes with an internal battery, but the inexpensive ones are designed to plug into your vehicle 12 volt battery.
Does the C15 connect to phone app?
My particular model did not have bluetooth built in.
@@summetj my C15 is similar to yours and can be controlled by app. Use the Car Fridge Freezer app on Google play store. Connects via Bluetooth. Do a scan on the app and press the settings button on the fridge when prompt to establish connection.
@@albertang9916 I recently purchased C15 that has a Bluetooth icon on the control panel but the Car Fridge Freezer app fails to discover the fridge. The fridge does not even show up on available devices in Bluetooth menu. Is there a way to activate bluetooth on the fridge?
@@vineetgupta5408 I'm in a similar situation. Did you figure out what was the issue?
"It's blinking fahrenheit now!" this will be me after I buy it and start having a mess.

How do you unlock the fu**ing thig?? Sorry but that should be the first thing you show
The version of the control panel I had did not have a Lock function. Perhaps they added an extra feature to later models.
@@summetj its ok, there is a lock button 😂 I was a numnut to miss it
