Can anyone tell me the main differences between a Waeco TC-35FL and a Waeco CDF-35? They are the same capacity (35 litres) but the CDF-35 is nearly twice the price. It is listed as a fridge/freezer whereas the TC-35FL is a cooler and heater and it is larger.
Also does anyone have any idea of the power draw of the units in Amp Hours/day? Or, relatively, which one uses less power when in the same conditions?
I'm thinking of running the fridge off a 105AH AGM battery and using a solar panel when camped for periods of up to a week, and charging the battery off the car when driving.
The TC-35FL is a peltier device type cooler, very poor in performance & they are power hungry. Any amb temperature above 30degC the internal goes up. Having had those type of fridges before I would advise don't go there. Buy the compressor one CDF-35, you wont look back.
i have a cdf35
just be aware that the element stops well short of the top
anything in this area will not freeze...............hence wasted space
mine is ok but would not buy one again
i hope this helps
