Easycool is not easycool!!

So I decided to buy one of these easy cool fridge/freezers

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/EASYCOOL-...item35ce2791ea

It arrived today and as I do I read the manual , at the end of the manual I then read, any problems contact evakool. So I decide to do some hunting around the evakool site and find this

Besides the digital display being In a slightly different spot these units are indentical. So I then go on to find the evakool manual, besides the picture on the front the manuals are word for word identical..
These are the same units in my opinion accept 400 dollars different. I don't believe you will find any of these evakools at anywhere near the same price of the easy cools.

Also food for thought on the fridge topic, Patterson Cheney trucks sell Chillstar fridges that are almost identical to ones that multiple companies sell for a lot more. 60l was 480 retail. They also do a 45 and a 30.

Will do, I have it running at the moment, will keep it running until the weekend and taking it away for the weekend (Asa. Fridge)and then going away with it on Boxing Day for 10 days( all of which should be 33 degree plus days, so will have a good idea how thing go with it after that. Probably be using it as a freezer )

You'd be best to pay a bit more to make sure it's river proof:-)

The EasyCool says nothing about using the Danfoss compressor like it does In the EvaKool fridges.
That's where all the money is.
