  1. 0:05Right. Yep. Back out.
  2. 0:08Here we are. Pitched up
  3. 0:12in the darkest place in the world.
  4. 0:16Really, really pitch black.
  5. 0:22So, point of this video is, if I can get
  6. 0:24the light to stay on, is being quite
  7. 0:28kindly sent a new fridge. Look,
  8. 0:31this beast
  9. 0:34has a thingy for scale.
  10. 0:38This is the AO Bossy
  11. 0:42Compressor fridge,
  12. 0:44and it's meant.
  13. 0:47So, I've got it plugged in. I've got it
  14. 0:49plugged into the uh Oh, the light's gone
  15. 0:52off.
  16. 0:55It's on 98%. That's been on for about an
  17. 0:58hour and a half. It's drawn 2%. It's
  18. 1:00pulling 39 watts at the minute. I've got
  19. 1:03it plugged into that to show you how how
  20. 1:06much power it pulls.
  21. 1:08I've got 12 volts over there, so I'll
  22. 1:10plug it into the van later. But yeah,
  23. 1:13it's huge. The capacity is massive.
  24. 1:16I'll pull it out the way.
  25. 1:20So
  26. 1:22we have in here, this is the ice
  27. 1:24compartment. So you fill that with water
  28. 1:27and freeze that. And then in effect, you
  29. 1:30have a freezer compartment here.
  30. 1:33So it'll keep your frozen stuff nice and
  31. 1:36pretty much frozen. If you're not using
  32. 1:38that, just use it as a normal cooler.
  33. 1:41It holds four boxes of beer.
  34. 1:45this all these. It's massive.
  35. 1:51It's good though, right? I'll tell you
  36. 1:53why I got this. Because
  37. 1:57when I go away on me longer trips, this
  38. 1:59the smaller fridge is not there's not
  39. 2:01enough room in it. So, half the stuff
  40. 2:03ends up in a shopping bag in the front
  41. 2:06and I have to cool it down later. But
  42. 2:08this this is cavernous. This will do.
  43. 2:10This will do a big long trip. So, I'll
  44. 2:12use this on me longer trips.
  45. 2:15I use a smaller one at the weekends,
  46. 2:17but it's got like a little light inside.
  47. 2:22Nice closing lid.
  48. 2:25The trick with this is the lid can be
  49. 2:26either side. So, you just lift it off
  50. 2:28there.
  51. 2:30It just lifts off. I don't want to do it
  52. 2:32now cuz it might
  53. 2:34see just comes off and you can put it on
  54. 2:37this side. So, you can have it opening
  55. 2:39from that. You have it open that way or
  56. 2:42that way.
  57. 2:44So yeah, I'll put the link in the
  58. 2:46description, right? Cuz I'm not sure the
  59. 2:47model. It's a big long winded number.
  60. 2:51But yeah, that's where the that's where
  61. 2:54your fan is there. So you keep that out
  62. 2:55there. All the controls are here. Dead
  63. 2:58simple.
  64. 3:00On, off settings. It gives you it gives
  65. 3:02you a list of everything there. So you
  66. 3:04just like get the temperature down with
  67. 3:06this button
  68. 3:08down to one. I don't want it on one
  69. 3:10degree. two degrees is I found is
  70. 3:12adequate.
  71. 3:14That's on, off, and that's your settings
  72. 3:16menu. So, you can have on max, eco,
  73. 3:20and uh I think it's off, on or off.
  74. 3:25There's a app to go with it as well. So,
  75. 3:28you download the app, which is on there
  76. 3:31on this barcode here. Just download that
  77. 3:33app, it takes you to it.
  78. 3:37So, we're going to see what power this
  79. 3:38draws over this trip cuz I'm going to
  80. 3:42leave it plugged into the um VTON and I
  81. 3:44want to see how it pulls it down. It's
  82. 3:46only pulling one watt now. See, it's
  83. 3:49it's got down it's at the right
  84. 3:52temperature now. So, it's pulling one
  85. 3:53watt. In the winter, it'll pull a lot
  86. 3:55less.
  87. 3:57There's another vent there. Let's see.
  88. 4:00Plug. You get a three pin plug as well.
  89. 4:02So you can use it in the house or if
  90. 4:04you're uh off grid, you know, if you've
  91. 4:06got electric hook up, you can plug it in
  92. 4:08with the three pin. I've just got this
  93. 4:1112vt in at the minute.
  94. 4:13But yeah, it's good, man. It's light as
  95. 4:16well, you know. There's another another
  96. 4:18out there, another fan. It's obviously
  97. 4:21cuz you can use both sides.
  98. 4:25But when I took it out of the box, it
  99. 4:27was a lot lighter than it looks.
  100. 4:30So that's good. But yeah, it's good,
  101. 4:32man. And if you get to this point, you
  102. 4:36can use it as a little table. Nice flat
  103. 4:38top.
  104. 4:40You probably sit on it.
  105. 4:42So we will come back
  106. 4:45and have a look how it's performing
  107. 4:47throughout this video.
  108. 4:50A bossy. Excellent. It's about £169.
  109. 4:57So we're just sitting here chilling out.
  110. 4:59chilling out, man. Come on. Anyway, this
  111. 5:03is the app. Oh, I don't know if I can
  112. 5:06pick it up.
  113. 5:09I'm I'm getting eaten alive by flies.
  114. 5:12It's called Outdoor Joy. Anyway, the app
  115. 5:14Outdoor Joy. That um barcode takes you
  116. 5:16to it. So, the current temperature is
  117. 5:184°.
  118. 5:20It's off at the minute, like but I think
  119. 5:22it's just cooling down. So, you can set
  120. 5:24it up to 20°. Plus, you've got the
  121. 5:27refrigeration mode there, right? So, you
  122. 5:29can have refrigeration or freezing. So,
  123. 5:32it sets it down at minus 18 and that
  124. 5:34starts turns it into a freezer, right?
  125. 5:37So, we don't want that. We want the fan
  126. 5:39on. So, that's back to the fridge on,
  127. 5:41off, obviously. Eco max if you want to
  128. 5:44get it cool quickly.
  129. 5:47And then you just got some settings
  130. 5:48here. You got these things here, device
  131. 5:51sharing, everything. So, that's like you
  132. 5:53turn that off if you don't want anybody
  133. 5:54finding it. But yeah, that gives you
  134. 5:56update. Oh, this is like 4°. So you can
  135. 5:59set plus or minus. Plus or minus. I'm
  136. 6:01going to keep it on two degrees. So
  137. 6:04that'll go down. So that's it really.
  138. 6:07That's how you control it with the app.
  139. 6:10Outdoor Joy it's called. I'm not going
  140. 6:13to show you cuz it takes you to me home
  141. 6:14screen.
  142. 6:18So yeah, it's nice and quiet. It came on
  143. 6:20before and it's really really quiet.
  144. 6:23just makes a noise when it comes on, but
  145. 6:25then it goes silent.
  146. 6:28It's good. I like it. You know, I like
  147. 6:31the color. I think you can get gray one
  148. 6:33as well.
  149. 6:36So, here we go. Right, it's tomorrow
  150. 6:38morning. Everything in there.
  151. 6:42Ice cold.
  152. 6:46It's all ice cold. Lovely.
  153. 6:51And
  154. 6:53It's going on forks of harmon and it's
  155. 6:55only drawn. Look at that. It's on 94%.
  156. 7:00What was it last night? 99. It's drew
  157. 7:035%. It's pulling one watt now.
  158. 7:07I'd say that was a winner. That
  159. 7:11That's an excellent fridge.
  160. 7:14If you want one for like if you've got a
  161. 7:16bigger van, it would be probably better
  162. 7:18in a bigger van. But I've managed. I've
  163. 7:20managed. All right. Be good for long
  164. 7:22trips, you know. And when I go on long
  165. 7:24trips, I rarely have the double bed.
  166. 7:28So, yeah. A bossy. There you go. All the
  167. 7:32um details will be in the description if
  168. 7:35you follow the links. I like the light.
  169. 7:36It's got a light. Oh, yeah. It's got a a
  170. 7:39drain plug in the bottom
  171. 7:41so you can wash it now. You can wash it
  172. 7:43out and if any nasties get in there, you
  173. 7:46can just drain it out.
  174. 7:49removable.
  175. 7:51This is the freezer compartment.
  176. 7:55The whole thing can be the freezer if
  177. 7:57you take if you turn it right down.
  178. 8:01Yeah. What can you say about a fridge?
  179. 8:02What more can you say about a fridge?
  180. 8:04But other than that, it's really good
  181. 8:05and it's hardly taken any power out of
  182. 8:08that power bank. That's amazing.
  183. 8:11Now,
  184. 8:15I could be wrong. Don't think I am. But
  185. 8:18the other fridge would have probably had
  186. 8:20that on 89% now.
  187. 8:24So this is very very efficient
  188. 8:29to the point of I might just keep it in
  189. 8:32permanently.
  190. 8:34Anyway, right. So, hope you like that.
  191. 8:38Just a short video about a fridge. If
  192. 8:40you're looking for a compressor fridge
  193. 8:42for your van, you cannot really go wrong
  194. 8:44with that.
  195. 8:47Let me know what you think in the
  196. 8:48comments.
  197. 8:50I'll put the links in the description.
  198. 8:52Everything will be there.
  199. 8:55Right. See you on the next one.
  200. 8:57Hopefully back out camping,
  201. 9:01not in the van.
