While cruising through Wal-Mart this evening, I saw a couple of those 12
volt electric coolers designed for use in a car and I started wondering
if anyone has used one in your plane? If so, how good/bad did it work?
I got one for plane use, but never actually used it for fear of draining
the battery by forgetting to turn it off. I also don't take many flights
where ice is insufficient. My experience using it with the AC power
supply is that it will not cool down warm cans -- it will only keep cold
cans cold. A good icepack will keep your drinks cold durin a layover,
but I suspect the mini fridge will just let them warm up and then be
unable to chill them.
