Just thought i would share this.
Last year my dad and myself did quite a bit of prospecting in outback WA. We were usually away for a minimum of 2 weeks just relying on solar to charge the metal detectors and keep the beer cold. Well, we came up with this idea, keeping the beer cold and leaving room for the other produce we would require on our trips to keep us going.
We would usually take 3 kegs sometimes 4, a tiny engel with the frozen meat in it and the 35l waeco with the repurposed automatic transmission cooler and the veg. Transferring the meat over to the waeco as we were going.
As for the beer it was cold :beerbang: it was a bit hard to get it to pour right with those silly little co2 cartridges but we managed. A better tap probably would have helped but we were on a tight budget. Hey and guess what we found gold!!
Hey and i should ask what setups have you guys run when camping??
