Bluetti’s fridge, freezer, and ice-making combo can go three days on solar charge

Never go without.

Bluetti’s SwapSolar is a battery-powered portable refrigerator, freezer, and ice maker that can also be plugged into solar, your car, or wall jack for long-term use. But that’s likely an acceptable tradeoff for many given LFP’s significant advantages, like longevity and improved safety, in addition to SwapSolar’s much longer runtime. However, I’m not convinced that design compromises made for battery-swapping are better than just plugging a fridge into a power station you have with you anyway, especially if you can create an efficient DC-to-DC connection between the two.
