Unless this is a fair price. Let me know if you think this is cheap or way to expensive.

I have a couple, different sizes. They run on either 240v or 12v and cool as well as heat. Cost about  £30 each from The Range.

Just given one away gratis missus!

It just wasn't man enough for our requirements, especially at Welland.
Looks like we'll load a pre-frozen (and suitably insulated), chest freezer onto the back of our friends' Scammell Highwayman lorry this year, then use a generator on-site after arrival.
 :D

Welsh ingenuity at it's very best! :y :y :y

Sub £40, that one seems exspensive.

Beware that these are only powerful enough to keep the contents a few degrees below ambient on the whole, and need to be constantly powered to achieve that. Might be some use if you're camping with an electrical hookup (so look for one with a mains or 12v power option).

Otherwise, better off with a cool box with a couple of ice packs in, IMHO.

And yes, you can get them for about half that price.

Got something similar, wedges nicely in boot and plugs into rear cigar lighter. Brilliant for getting ice cream back from the shops in the 40 deg C summer here or for picnic outings.
