  • Excellent addition to small sailboat
Color: Grey Size: 30 Quart
I have a 30 foot sailboat equipped with a basic icebox requiring ice loading prior to a cruise. 60 lbs of ice in the box will last about six days in moderate weather if the box is properly managed, that is everything is pre cooled before placing in box and no warm stuff added later. Also the number of open/close cycles needs to be minimized. This is a hassle I have lived with for 20 years. I have not been enthusiastic about converting to box refrigeration due to the hassle factor, hole cutting requirements and space. So when these compact 12VDC coolers reached what looked like decent maturity I decided to purchase a unit to supplement my ice box and can be easily removed from the boat for road trips and other uses. My selection process was pretty simple, decent reviews, lowest cost, correct sizing for my application. Not too small, not too big. Initially I wanted a cooler/freezer combo but the prices on those went up significantly and I noted this unit could be divided into two compartments so I thought i might me able to set it up to deliver a kind of cooler/freezer clone if I got the temp set right. So first I had to install cigarette lighter outlets that would support the current draw of the cooler. No problem in a car but on a boat most cig lighter outlets are wired for low power applications and the two I had would not support the load which can be up to 5 amps during compressor start up. In max (not eco) mode, the unit draws about 3 amps when the compressor is running. When the compressor is not running it pulls much less power obviously. I would say I was seeing 30% compressor on time in temps around 70 - 75 ambient. So on an hourly basis I was pulling around 2 amps avg or 24 watts/hr. I was very happy with this performance however I expect summer temps will drive that power usage up significantly. For a sailor these numbers are really important because we have to rely almost exclusively on battery bank and solar/wind charging. Bottom line, really happy with power consumption numbers. Important note to anyone using other than standard car cig lighter which is designed to handle higher current. When I attempted to use my cig lighter outputs on the boat the unit would start up but I saw the input voltage display on the cooler was showing a rapidly decreasing input voltage to the point where the unit's low voltage protection would turn the cooler off. Turns out the wiring to myn cig lighter socket was such a small gauge that as soon as it was loaded up it would begin dropping the output voltage to an unacceptable level. If you are rolling your own outlets, make sure you select a wire gauge which will minimize voltage drop between the cooler and your batteries. I wound up using 10awg wire which is probably overkill but I wanted the cooler to see almost the same voltage as at the battery. All of the above is utterly meaningless unless the unit does a decent job of cooling/freezing. And it does that very well in my experience so far (used the cooler 24/7 for my last 6 day cruise). As I had planned, I used the center divider to try to create a cooler/freezer combo. I placed my frozen stuff in the compartment closest to the control panel and my beer in the other compartment, set the unit to 25 degrees and waited for he beer to freeze or the frozen stuff to thaw. Neither did either. The beer stayed cold as heck and the frozen stuff stayed frozen!!! Outstanding. I was really pleased. Good pwr consumption, good cooling performance, no noise (but my hearing is not the best)., can make it work as combo cooler freezer, light weight and portable, relatively low center of gravity for a solid tie down (sailors will appreciate this), and physical properties like door opening and control accessibility is excellent. You do have to fuss around with the controls a bit to figure them out. Note to manufacturer - get an English speaker (or whatever language with English subtitles) to do a video to explain how to use the controls. As usual, the delivered manual is mostly gibberish. There are third party videos online but, come on manufacturers, this is not hard. You have a great product, how had can it be to produce great instructions? So, final topic is space. I have the 30 Qt which seemed like an excellent compromise between size, weight, and capacity. This is not a large capacity. Just about a cubic foot. But is is more space than you might imagine if you imagine a cubic foot. First thing is cool or freeze your stuff before loading it (I am speaking to sailors in particular) you can also use shore power to do the initial cooling of course using the provided 110 VAC adapter, but you don"t want to be doing initial cool down on your batteries if you can avoid it. This pre cool is particularly important if you want to do cooler/freezer. I suspect the process of freezing something is going to freeze everything in the box but if you pre cool you can find that Goldilocks temp that keeps the two compartments just right. I kept my beer very cold and a Cornish game hen frozen solid for the full 6 days. But the beer was cold and the hen was frozen going into the box before the trip. Ok, back to space. I loaded 9 16 Oz cans of beer in the cooler side with a bit of room left if I had wanted to stuff something smaller in there. On the freezer side I had two steaks, the cornish game hen, a tray of sausage, three lamb chops and a big bag of M&Ms which I eat frozen (try it, you'll love it). And I have significant extra space. I could have added a bag or two of frozen veggies easily. So, overall, my first impression after six days living with this thing 24/7 using my house batteries and 200 watts of solar panels has been excellent. I am extremely pleased with performance, size, ease of use and appearance. Longevity will be the next test but mfg provides an upgrade to 3 yr warranty on the unit so that does provide a little confidence they have built some longevity into this unit. Update 06/25/2021 Spent another six day cruise with this unit in ops full time. I am struggling to say anything bad about it. We are into summer temperatures now - around 95 deg F ambient middle of the day and the unit power consumption has gone up a bit, but not massively. I was pulling about 2 amps/hr in cooler temps (70s), maybe 2.5 or 2.75 amps now that it is warmer. The biggest hassle I am having is trying to decide do I want a freezer or a cooler. The split compartment can be kludged to do both as I described earlier but it is a bit of a hassle to have to check stuff to make sure you are not freezing the beer of thawing the steak. I am leaning toward a freezer which would allow me to manufacture ice for the original "box" if/when necessary. Of course, this is a fine problem to have....do I do cold or colder? Have not used the device in the car yet but I see no reason why it would be problematic. The only issue there is to manage the power input so you don't kill the car battery which is not designed for deep cycle. I would either take the thing to the hotel room and plug it in or freeze something inside the box (like a gallon of water) to keep the interior cool until next day driving when you can power up on the battery (actually the alternator output) again. Note to manufacturer. It would be cheap and easy to add a small automatic light to the interior. This would definitely be handy. The user should be able to enable or disable the light operation in "settings" so when things need to be dark you aren't killing your night vision by opening the box. Edit 09-06-2022 As in sit in an airbnb in Boise, Idaho looking at my BougeRV cooler box humming along after about a thousand nautical miles at sea and three or four thousand on the road...well, it is still refrigerating and still freezing so I guess it is living up to expectations. Not bad at all. The only thing I need is something to make it easier to carry. Either a shoulder strap on one of those little fold-able carts. Meanwhile, what are you waiting for? Go buy your own cooler and you too can enjoy a cold beer in the middle of nowhere while you contemplate solutions to all of your first world problems. Edit 08/11/23 Well, still coolin... I just got back from a 200 mile cruise aboard my small sailboat. I had ice for drinks as well as frozen meats in my cooler for a week. Not a problem and it was HOT. That is the weather was hot. One thing I discovered in the course of using this unit... there is frozen and there is really frozen. Who knew? Turns out that meats stored at just below freezing are not happy campers. They want to be stored closer to zero degrees. That pretty much sealed the deal on the cooler being configured as a freezer. I stock up my icebox (with ice) to handle cooling and just set the Booge up to be a freezer. I tried zero degrees but it sucks a lot of power at that temp so I backed off to +10 degrees F and that seems to be a reasonable compromise cold/power consumption. Keeps frozen stuff fresh. So at almost 3 years and hundreds of hours of use on land and sea, still going strong. I am thinking about building a supplemental insulation case for the unit to see if I can't make it a bit easier to carry and more efficient but it is pretty reasonable stand alone except it is an awkward carry final edit (I promise) 04/23/2024 Newest freezer strategy emerges. I continue to try to keep power consumption as low as possible when on battery power aboard the boat. When I have the engine providing alternator power I place the unit in "max" mode and get it as cold as possible. When I am sailing or at anchor I transition to "eco" mode to minimize batt power consumption. This has been pretty effective although it is another step you have to remember to take. The interior temp varies as I do this but highest I let it get is about 15 degrees F. That seems to work best as a balance between food preservation and battery charge preservation even in higher ambient temp situations. I do what I can to ensure the unit is exposed to cooler air by keeping it ventilated. Turns out the unit pretty much lives on the boat these days due to the cost of gasoline we are flying mostly and not driving so the bouge is not used in the car too much these days and, frankly, it is not the most convenient devise for the car. Much better for a camper or RV where you don't have to lug it around to plug into shore power. I still have not built an insulated cover, I am pretty sure this would improve the power consumption situation but I am just lazy, and perfect should not the the enemy of good enough, right? I continue to be a big fan and unit is running like a top. One of the best comfort upgrades I have done aboard the boat. ... show more

  • Amazing Portable Fridge/Freezer
Color: Grey Size: 23 Quart
I drive a service truck all day making stops and service appointments to clients homes. I used to stop every morning and buy ice and put in my cooler. I even bought an ice maching to make the ice at my shop so i would save money on buying ice everyday. Well this got real old after a few years. So one day i saw a guy at a gas station with a portable refrigerator in the bed of his truck. I looked at it and he told me how much it cost and i was like wow thats crazy expensive sooooo i just forgot about that idea. But then i got a pop up deal on the 23qt Bougerv unit. So i was like what the heck id it sucks i will send it back. It showed up and i hardwired it in the back of my service body truck. I have 100 ah battery in there that is bluetooth and it runs a 10000 watt power inverter and all my chargers fpr my tools and i use it all day everyday at my job sites. Well the unit has been in my truck for 10 months now and its always on 24/7. I never turn it off. I always have cold water and drinks. This thing sits in 100° heat and sun beating on it all day everyday and it always keeps my drinks ice cold. No more ice taking up room in my cooler. This unit is unbelievable. It barley uses any power at all. I only wish i got the 30qt instead of the 23qt. But like i said i got a deal on amazon for pretty cheap! It has paid for itself 10 times over with not having to buy ice. I would give this thing 10 stars if i could. Highly recommend this fridge. ... show more

  • Absolutely Great Product
Color: Grey Size: 30 Quart with Cover
Just purchased this 30 quart refer for off road camping. 99% of the reviews I read were all positive with only minor issues, and that's to be expected. My personal opinion is I would give this refer 10 stars if that was possible, so I'll just give it 5 stars twice. It performs exactly as described and the temperature control is spot on. I placed a portable thermometer in the box, turned it on, and within 20 minutes the temperature dropped from 78 F, to my set point of 37 F. The portable thermometer was 37 when the unit stabized and maintained controlled set temperature. After that test, I turned the unit to it's maximum cold setting, -8 F, and it took the unit to -7 F and maintained for several hours. Additionally, I had a few questions for the manufacturer/distributor of this unit and their customer service rep, Mya, responded (on a Sunday afternoon) and totally impressed me. All my questions were answered same day and I am a happy camper not having to go to town every 2 days for ice. The unit runs on my Jackery 1000 and only draws 25 watts after reaching its controlled setting. However, in order to reach the desired temperature, the unit must work hard to get there. What I'm saying is that during the initial cool down, the unit exceeds 100 watts of power. Keep that in mind when you plug it into your vehicle 12 volt receptacle. My advice is to plug it into a wall outlet before you need the refer, then when you transfer it to your vehicle, your 12 volt system won't be stressed. Just my thoughts. Hope it helps. By the way, in the "User Manual" it states on page 1 to let the unit set for more than 6 hours before using. Then, on page 3, it states to let the unit set for 24 hours before first use. Contacted customer service, and they're looking into a possible manual update. In the interim, let it set for 24 hours to ensure safe operation. If it was upside down, on its side or whatever during shipment, if you turn it on too soon, serious damage can occur to the compressor. I highly recommend this unit and will buy one for my son soon so he can enjoy camping like I do. Happy trails. Mick ... show more
