Frequently Asked Questions
Can the CD 30 actually freeze items, or just keep them cold?
Yes, the CoolMatic CD 30 uses true compressor refrigeration technology that can freeze items solid. Unlike thermoelectric coolers that only cool relative to ambient temperature, this unit can reach freezing temperatures regardless of outside heat.
Will this drain my RV battery when running on 12V power?
The CD 30 is designed for energy efficiency with low power draw. However, like any 12V appliance, extended use without the engine running or shore power can drain your battery. Many RV owners use it while driving and switch to AC power at camp, or pair it with solar panels for off-grid use.
How does this compare to my RV's built-in refrigerator?
The CD 30 provides supplemental cooling capacity and portability that your built-in fridge can't match. It's perfect for extra beverages, overflow storage during big trips, or taking to the beach or tailgate while your RV stays at camp. The compressor technology also performs better in extreme heat than absorption refrigerators.
