Compressor fridges for cars, trucks and RVs · review
A 10 qt VEVOR compressor fridge with a touch screen and the lowest annual energy figure here, 45 kWh, sold by Amazon at $124.90.
VEVOR’s C9 is a 10 qt compressor fridge with a touch screen and app, cooling down to -4 °F. Its spec table lists 45 kWh a year, the lowest on this shelf.
The net volume is 8.62 L, under the 10 qt (about 9.5 L) on the label. VEVOR’s cool-down claim reads “from 68 °F/20 °C to -4 °F/0 °C in 15 minutes”, mixing two different temperatures.
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.
Amazon.com listed it at $124.90 on November 2, 2026.
