The electric cooler: the most powerful
Electric coolers keep food cool longer than conventional models because they produce cold and not just keep it cool.
They can be operated by plugging 12V into a cigarette lighter socket, or into a 220V socket on a traditional socket in the house.
Each of the cooler models show different performance depending on size and brand. It is therefore important to make a choice by defining its future uses.
Note that there are even genuine “mini” refrigerators that work with compressors like traditional fridges. This type of cooler is ideal in car and camping but displays higher rates.
The passive cooler: the most popular
These are the coolers that everyone knows. They are also called “rigid ice boxes”. Unlike electric coolers, they do not produce cold but retain for a longer or shorter period the goods that you entrust to them.
To help them in their task, cold accumulators are generally used. They allow the coolers to improve their performance.
Like their cousins, the performance of these coolers varies according to models and brands. These coolers are ideal for use in camping or fishing for example.
The softest cooler: the lightest
Flexible coolers or textile coolers are as their name suggests in fabrics. They are generally used for picnics, for bringing food to friends or lunch in the office.
Of the three categories of cooler, these are obviously the least efficient, however, they are ample enough for limited times and when temperatures are not too high.
Once again, depending on the models, performance fluctuates between 3 and 12 hours. If you want to improve the cooling time of your textile cooler, do not hesitate to use ice bread.
