  2. Wouldn't it be better to put the temperature gauge inside the fridge?

  3. According to the sticker on the front, it has a day mode and night mode. Nothing about that in the instructions.
     
  4. It's made me want to check it now. At 9 degrees storing meat would be dangerous
    These Naked Aussie babes? Do they come to Aberystwyth?
    Don't recall anything about that. Mine is badged Waeco though so was a early CRX50 yours may be slightly different ?

    It sticks in the throat a bit & is another example of poorly engineered/marketed/thought through product & chiseling manufacturers taking advantage in the leisure market.

    How about this for a pointless add-on.

    It's a wireless remote display with a little sucker on the back. It registers up to 15m away, just in case it's too much trouble to heave your beer bloated body out of the camping chair when the desire to check the fridge temperature becomes overwhelming.

    Of course checking the temperature on the gauge whilst retrieving a beer from said fridge is way too much trouble.

    Should I get one for our new chest fridge....:thinking:

    They sell that as the normal temperature display is unintelligible!

    It's wireless! Probably comes with an app. Got some pressey buttons on it...
     
  11. An app? Now you are talking! Gets past the 70s look plastic.

    "Learn the ovulation period at any time. Be a good mother!"

    Love that little bit of blurb from their advert. Obviously anyone who doesn't have one of these is a bad, bad mother :rolleyes:

    Waeco should take a leaf out of their marketing book!
    "Buy a remote gauge to supplement the four LED temperature indicators. Don't die from botulism"
    They'd sell thousands!

    I run it on 2 leds and it's about 3-4deg on the full leds including the fast freeze one it will freeze the whole lot down to about-18deg
