Entity Jesse and Monica Johnson spoke thus:

> Anyone have a suggestion for a cooler for a Vanagon?
I am using the Coleman Power Chill, it pulls 4.3 amps though, which means in
will drain your batteries unless you have a charger/ adapter running too.

Here is an example:

My biggest complaints about the cooler are:

1) When sitting outside in "Chest mode" it collects rainwater inside,
apparently it's not designed to shed water this way.

2) In "Chest mode" the fan makes too much noise, and you don't have an
option to shut it off.

So if you are planning to buy, I might suggest a better one than this, I
hear Igloo makes one too.
