[QUOTE="Nightjar, post: 628479, member: 1414"] Bought new, my 1983, 39L Engel "Old Yella", still purring and still looks like new when the home made insulated cover is removed. By increasing the lid insulation with some sheep skin seat cover the same setting reduced the temperature 4C. We use it as a feezer on our month long trips away. Combined with an Engel combo they are both mounted on the back of the ute (under canopy). They are connected to a 100ah agm which is charged by alternator while mobile and solar when stationary. Faultless running for many years. Engel gets my vote for the most reliable. Always run them on 12v while away from the grid, never run them on 240v from a genny. [/QUOTE]
