180

This item usually sells for $99.00+. The Dometic TB-08G, formerly known as Waeco TB-08G is a thermoelectric cooler/warmer. It is not a fridge, but a great device to help you keep drinks cool. Thermoelectric devices are very cool they use peltier effect to create a heat flux. Sounds very space age and cool!

You can read about Thermoelectric cooling here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_cooling

Because it's thermoelectric it can also be used in warming mode, to help you keep your food warmer longer. Note, it is not a refrigerator, so will not keep your food at safe temperatures. It is also not an oven, so will not keep your food at hot enough temperatures to store food safely at temperature.

Despite this, it can be a great way to enjoy cold water & chocolate whilst travelling. Or if collecting hot food from the shops, where you must travel a while, using it to help keep your food warmer for longer.

They are also very light weight so are easy to carry and store when not in use.

Note: Because it is thermoelectric, it is not the most energy efficient so it's not recommended to run it when the engine is off or risk flattening your battery.

    This could keep my 4x note with Helio processor cool while I'm driving around!! I've been trying to find an ingenuous way (besides an ice pack) to keep it cool in the car while it's plugged in (it gets way too hot).
    You may think I'm joking, but I'm not
    And would be good for Emergency chocolate and all day coffee as well.
