Compressor fridges for cars, trucks and RVs · review
A 30 qt fridge that publishes its power draw, 45 W in ECO and 60 W in MAX, and reaches -8 °F, the coldest here, for $279.99.
BougeRV publishes the figures a buyer needs: about 45 W in ECO, 60 W in MAX, 45 dB, and cool-down times from 77 °F to 32 °F in 15 minutes and to -5 °F in 50 minutes. The range goes down to -8 °F, the coldest on this shelf.
BougeRV asks that the fridge not be placed in direct sunlight, because the door can deform.
Like every compressor fridge on this shelf, it has a three-level battery protection setting that switches it off before it drains the vehicle’s starting battery. Pick the highest level when it runs from the starter battery, and the lowest when it runs from a separate house battery or a power station.
BougeRV listed it at $279.99 on November 2, 2026. It weighs 24.3 lb.

8.3/ 10
A well-documented 30 qt fridge that goes colder than the rest. Pricier per quart than EUHOMY.
Same category, nearby prices, between portable power units. What remains is the specifications every one publishes — half empty, a column is no use.
