Great portable fridge/freezer.
I purchased the VL65D mainly for camping but I can see it useful even in the backyard at home. When I first received the unit, I tested it at home for a week plus to see how it would perform, both on AC and DC. The tests went well but the ambient temperature was mainly in the 80's and low 90's. The week we went camping with it the daytime highs were over 100 degrees and the freezer rarely rose above 3 degrees! I ran it off of a solar powered lithium battery setup I built and the results were outstanding. I highly recommend getting the insulated cover as well, both to improve performance and protect the chest. The only negative I can note is the location of the display makes it a bit difficult to see if the unit is on the ground. Other than that, this thing is fantastic. Providing it holds up over time, I'm a satisfied customer.
