And because the compressor is most of the time off, the cool down times are totally unacceptable. Not sure where the fridge does measure the temperature, but for sure it has not much to do with the real temperature inside the compartment. The typical running time of the compressor is around 2:15 minutes followed by a break of 3:15 to 4:00 minutes. The temperatures shown on the display are all the time variing between 11° and 4° C. What can be observed is that the fridge switches the compressor on at display temperature of 10° C (or above) and off at 6° C. Better to drive to a petrol station and buy some ice cubes to get a cold drink or let the outside temperatures at night cool down your drinks for free. Here are the results after 16 1/4 hours of constant cooling:
Let’s go to bed and check the temperatures on the next day. OK, seems you will not get an cold drink today. Let’s see the temperatures after 4 hours: OK, you still have to wait to get a cold drink. Only the temperature at the bottom showed some temperature drop. If you thought, that’s very quick and you would like to have a ice cooled Coke now you will be very disappointed. Power was be supplied by the ICECO 230V power supply.Īfter just 12 Minutes the ICECO displays showed impressive 6° Celsius. I set the fridge to +6° C in single compartment configuration. Fridge and Bottle were at room temperature of 25° Celsius when I started the test. +2° C instead of +6° C and switch it off for the night in case you would not like to be disturbed by the noise the Go20 produces when you sleep nearby.īrown: Temperature at 10 cm height, Green: Temperature at the bottom.Īfter the poor results when cooling down an empty ICECO iFreezer Go20 (most likely the same like the indelB TB20 BT DT) I put 6 1.25 Liter Coke / Fanta bottles in the fridge. If the fridge would cool down faster you could set a lower temperature at the afternoon, e.g. The temperature increases around 1° Celsius every three hours. Starting at 10.5° Celsius the temperature reached 17.8° C at 10 cm height and 18.4° C at the bottom. I measured the temperature at the bottom of the fridge (lower value on the temperature logger) and at a height of 10 cm above the bottom between the two layers of bottles (upper value in the logger display).įor the first time during my testing the Go20 was showing good results. I run the test for 21 hours at a room temperature of around 26° Celsius. The fridge was packed in the Protection Bag which provided additional insulation. To test the insulation of the fridge I switched of the fridge. Power was be supplied by the ICECO 230V power supply. After cooling down 6 bottles á 1.25 Liter for almost 18 hours they reached their possible minimum temperature of 10.5° C for the ICECO iFreezer Go20 set to +6° C in single compartment configuration.
