The ultralight aluminum construction of the APL35 makes it especially suitable for off-road and overlanding use. ICECO sent us their new APL35 Dual-Zone Fridge/Freezer to test out, so we decided to strap it down in our Kawasaki KRX 1000 and take it rock crawling at Sand Hollow in 104 F temps to see how it would perform.
Check out the video below to see what we put the APL35 in our off-road test.
After our extreme off-road test, we decided to take the APL35 along with us on a trip to Lake Powell. Once again, temperatures were extreme at 105 degrees F during the day and 80 degrees F for the overnight low. Over a three-day period, we ran the APL35 off the boat’s 12V cigarette lighter during the day, then overnight connected to a Jackery 1000.
We set up the dual-zones both in refrigerator mode in both compartments so that our food could be separate from our drinks. The APL35 handled the extreme temperatures like a champ and it was very nice being able to keep our food & drinks at the desired temperatures without the hassle of dealing with ice. The cooler spent three days and two nights on the boat and never skipped a beat.
We did get two different thermometers so we could monitor the temperature of both zones, and we did find that the actual internal temperature was a few degrees higher than our setting on the APL35L. To reach our desired temp, we ended up lowering the setting and we achieved the temps we were looking for.
