- This fridge is designed to run from a 12V DC power source such as your Caravan/Camping battery bank. Running the fridge from a 12V power source will help with the longevity and performance of this fridge. Bushman recommends that when 240V power is available, use a smart battery charger to charge your battery bank and keep your fridge running direct from the batteries. You can see a suitable range of AC to DC smart battery chargers HERE if needed.
- A small number of customers may want to use this fridge in an 'offgrid living' setup and run the fridge from 240V AC power all of the time - in which case you will need a Power Adaptor to convert AC Power to DC in order to run the fridge. You can see this optional Bushman Adaptor HERE.

Q & A
-
Can this unit replace my Domeitc Waeco CRX?
Yes this unit will replace any CRX65 unit
-
What do I need to think about in regards of the ventilation with my Bushman compressor fridge?
As any compressor fridge, it is important to ensure that you have enough ventilation when you install your Bushman fridge.
Any of the Bushman Compressor fridges requires two vents at the rear of the fridge cavity to the outside, or to the general area where the fridge is located. It is important to place the vents at the bottom and top of the fridge cavity and ensure there is a free cross section. This cross section requires a minimum cm2 which differs depending on the size of the fridge - to ensure the correct required centimeters for your fridge models, please see the Installation Manual under the Description tab.
The cross section ensure that the fridges get enough ventilation of natural thermal air. Bushman recommends having a bigger cross section as that is required, the more ventilation the better!

Reviews
Bushman Fridge
By: Max Partridge on9 February 2024
A great small compact fridge that fitted straight into the existing fridge cavity and used very little power compared to the existing fridge. Would recommend this fridge to anyone who wants a small fridge with little space. Excellent value for money.
Excellent product
By: Adam Killeen on27 May 2022
Purchase was delivered promptly and item arrived in good order. This fridge is exactly as described, appears to be durable and well put together. Time will tell if it handles what the Aussie outback throws at it but at this stage looks very promising.
