I would like to pre-cool a small car cooler by plugging into a wall plug. Will this handle the job? Thanks.

too small for what I needed it for so it didn't work,not sure if it would work or not for what your using it for.

I have a car vacuum that plugs into the cigarette lighter and bought this adapter so I could use a regular wall socket and this does not work.

I love this plug! I convert a blow up bed that is meant to plug into the cigarette holder. It works really well when I bring the bed inside and plug it into this devise.

I'm not sure what the voltage is for your cooler, but if it's no more than 1000mAh, it should do the trick.

the output of the cellet is only 1 amp. if your cooler requires more than 1 amp. to cool, it probably would not be satisfactory.

Possibly. I have used mine to run a small portable car refrigerator cooler for a short time and it worked fine. R. Skiba

We love our cooler and use it often when traveling. The conncector to the cooler is a special shape and ends in a car charger connection which then connects to a converter with a car charger receptacle which goes to a conventional house 110 plug. Therefore, I would not think that it can be easily used without the supplied cords. We use ours both in the house and in the car simply by removing the house cord extenstion and plugging it into a car "power" receptacle. Works great

There is a cord that plugs into the USB port. The pass through means that there is a USB port on the cable for the cooler itself so you do not lose the USB port all together. However, the cord that plugs into the USB port already sticks out very far, so I would not plug anything into the pass through as it would definitely catch on and mess with the port.

I don't think so can't hold long after unplug. This unit is actually for cooler and warmer. Depends how your plug plug in. 1 side for warmer and the other for cooler.

I think it would depend on the fridges amperage draw, but if intended for use with a car lighter, this should work. I use mine to run a Coleman cooler that acts as a fridge. No prob so far.

Did you make sure the temp +/- is set to the temp you want? Every time my power goes off or o unplug it, it resets itself and I have to reset the temp to blow cooler. Also, there is a setting to blow just room air around. Make sure you aren't accidentally on that. Download a booklet and see where the settings should be to blow cool. These things don't have freon, do they??? If so, it could need coolant. When you cleaned it, could you have a loose connection inside somewhere? I've never had trouble with mine, like others seem to. But usually it is because people aren't draining theirs, but trying to use it with it plugged up. And even though they say they'll work that way, they don't. The water must drain. I really love this thing, but using it is complicated.

hello Marvin. No, the connector is only for automotive cooling, connections are different

it works fine it has a small end that goes in power socket which may be a little loose in socket wrap 1or 2 wraps electrical tape below the side metal pieces then it will fit tight I have to do about all plugs this way to keep tight cords last much longer I drive a truck they will work loose if I don't don't cover the end or the metal on sides if get to much tape on plug can't insert in socket if I don't do this it eats cords my cooler runs 24/7 except switching vehicles even at home. They do last long time if you do this simple thing with tape.

look at the plug where it connects to the cooler. one way it heats if you turn it around it will cool.

we planned to use it in the car (12 volts) during daytime driving and then plug it in with the AC adapter at night in hotels. We found that the AC adapter was noisy and got scary hot in hotel rooms so we just quit using it that way and anyway the hotel room usually had a fridge. It takes a couple of hours to cool off when used in the car, after that it keeps cold for the rest of the day. It should work for you that way.

I would not recommend this cooler. I got it for trips in the car and it failed miserably. The salad I was supposibly refrigerating was warm at the end of the trip. Seemed to work when I tested it but failed sometime during the trip. Have not used it since.

Not sure if it will reach in front of a "regular" car since we only have the SUV which has a plug in the back. Now, we also did purchase separately the Koolatron 110 Volt adopter for indoor use for the cooler.

If you have a hole in your wall of the right size, yes. That's what I've done, in a small window - window removed and framed up the hole to fit this unit. It's not exactly the same as a wall unit - the kind with a small separate air unit in the room, connected to a larger outside unit. Those need only small holes to pass through the refrigerant lines and such. Those are much more expensive, are quieter, and generally higher capacity. This one is just a big old window unit. Cools well, but is noisy. And keep in mind that this unit is 220 volt. Can't just plug it in to a wall socket.

I think it will be fine. I have mine plugged as needed in winter in Colorado. We dont usually get that cold though.

No,there is no plug to plug it into the wall. But the whole cooler works really great and is a great product.

I have the same problem but it is actually a benifit in my case. I'm using it to power a car stereo in a wood box and the fan keeps the radio cool too. I purchased a "MEANSWELL" power supply for twice the price of this unit and it's fan never comes on and it powers 2 300watt car amps without any problems at full load
