Now to get my 12v supply wired up so a can take the dam fridge with me.

I used 10mm dual core from the battery to a fuse block on the Cargo Barrier,
then 8mm from there to the 2 plugs in the back for my fridges, Engel on for main 40L and std ciggy socket for 30L freezer
both on separate fuses.
I used to have 12mm welding cable from 2nd batt to the rear, but was not happy with running the 2 fridges off of it, so I changed it
cheers
Trailblazer only way to go. Hand made in Caloundra and still used by the Aust army so if it is solder proof, it must be good.
Instead of fans or insulation bags etc, the outside of the unit disperses the heat so needs a couple of inches of space to allow heat to be removed. Very efficient. I have a 95 amp hr dual battery with 140 watt solar panel so no problems keeping power up to it. It is still full of bait from October Fraser trip- very few and small tailor this year- and it is rock hard even when parked out in hot sun all day while at work. No rust problems as interior and exterior are all aluminium and beers get very cold very quick.
Early Sept at Waddy Point on Fraser it seemed every second bloke had a trailblazer with one being bought in 1985 and another in 1990.
Mine is number 21,000 approx. and my son's bought for his 21st birthday in 1986 is no 17,000 approx.
Could not agree more with the trail blazer, i would have loved one they just take up to much room in a wagon
My families trail blazer died after 20 years of use by other family members and I finally got my hands on it for 2 weeks before it died. Lost hundreds of $$$ of meat.
They are a brilliant fridge though I just lucked out unfortunately!
I have an 80 ltr trailblazer that won't fit now due to the drawers so it will be for sale.
Just bought a waeco cfx40, bcf are doing the summer pack with them till the 1st December.
So for 1149 got the fridge, bag, stand, a mini 12v cooler/heater, hat, stubby cover, and some other power thing.
They had no bags in stock so gotta wait for that to come in, but there's well over $300 in included stuff in the pack.
Cheers,
Eric.

With all this talk on good brand fridges ,please use the Engel plug which locks in place,
or a 50amp Anderson plug, avoid using a cig socket and plug at all costs. You want the best connection possible.
And if touring last thing you want is a cig plug to fail out in the Simmo. Extra 2cw
