What is a powered cooler?
Powered coolers are high-tech coolers with a compressor and other mechanical components. These coolers hook up to an energy source 12V DC (Car) or 110V AC (Home) and then use that energy to power those mechanical components and chill its contents.
Powered coolers pack more space
Bring more of what you love on your next adventure. Traditional passive coolers rely on ice to keep your food and beverages cool in a 2:1 ratio, 67% of an ice cooler's storage is space consumed by the ice needed to chill contents. Imagine how many more moments by the campfire you could have with 3 times the amount of food and cold beverages.
