Awesome build! What did you use for the sliding door panels?
Hey this was a review of Al's rig. You can reach him on the channel sponsored by wifie. Have a good one!!
What if this is my only fridge I'll be running in my rig? I have a 4runner looking at this or the apl55. What do you recommend, TIA!
@notoffroading I also have the apl55 that rides in our other tundra in the alu cabin and love it. I would look at the space you have for it, how long your trips will be, and how much food/drinks you want. For example , we had the 75 lit. I loved it but was just too big for our space and travel. We down sized and just stopped more to fill back up. For our new rig (fourwheel camper), which has a built-in fridge, we just want a small dual zone for drinks and meats/ ice cream..etc..
@@OverlandTrailsAdventures thanks for the fast reply! I have room for both, I like that the apl35 is lighter but love the capacity for the 55. I'm doing a trip to Utah for 2 weeks so that's why I'm thinking the apl55 is the way to go but ultimately I wouldn't mind the 35
@notoffroading with that info, I'd go for the apl55, on the slider. Sounds like you won't be as happy with the 35. The 55 is a better trip fridge for what your doing anyways.
@@OverlandTrailsAdventuresthanks for the help!!
@OverlandTrailsAdventures does the apl55 consume alot more energy than the 35?
Dang it, I have one coming with the cover and I wanted to get the Iceco 250Wh battery to go with it but now Im not so sure..lol.. Some say 6-10 hours, some say 36 hours... Talk about analysis paralysis..I think Im just going to get a 500wh battery pack and be done with it.. Thanks!
@@drewpknutz1410 it worked well with our jackery 500. I would recommend going with a 1000 model.
Hey there!We're quite interested in your posting content. We have some car related items. Do you accept sponsored products?
Just subscribed, very well done video, probably the best i have seen on this cooler which im considering buying.
@@brianwhidden thanks. I try to take a no bs approach..lol
How much
@tatertootz28 at the time it was about $270. It's really big so keep that in mind when planning the install
Beatutiful. Please bro i wish i could go
Wow! I had no idea how big this place was. Great video Bud!
@clintrudd9588 thanks!! Love that place
What size bed does that Tundra have the 5.5 ft. or 6.5 ft.?
@@buckblankenship hey it's a 5.5 ft.
Is that a 2024 Toyota Tundra worth $52,725 with 2 owners in the past year? And boy is that alot of matinence! Brake system, Coolant system, engine, exausht, you must have spent thousands on repairs!
It is a 1 owner 24 Tundra Limited with the TRD off-road package. No maintenance so far. upgraded the suspension to manage the weight. thanks!
@@OverlandTrailsAdventures You sure? Because there is much more info that I found that you might be interested in!
Inside?❤
hey, i have plans to do a full walk-through video this weekend. Please subscribe and select notification to be alerted when the video is posted.
Great review, I like your straight to the point no BS style. Been thinking of upgrading to this fridge setup in my overlanding setup instead of running two coolers. I also have a Jackery 500, and after watching the performance, I'm thinking I should have bought a larger unit. That being said, when you have your Jackery plugged in to your vehicle, and your fridge plugged in to your Jackery, are you able to keep it at 100% state of charge, or will it draw more wattage than can be charged by your truck's alternator. Thanks!
Hey thanks! It really depends on how long you run your vehicle. If you run the fridge on normal and drive 5 or 6 hours it should maintain a decent charge. We need to upgrade to a 1000 just to be safe.
NOCO says the plug only supports 15amp.. so how does it work with manager 30amp?
Hhmm ive never had an issue with charging up in the driveway testing but I didn't put a meter on it either.
Undecided between this one and the apl55. Just curious that i can't find the 35 on the iceco website but it is online in a place called indogo, is that partnered with iceco? How come iceco doesn't sell it?
Hey, great question. The APL 35 is still in "launch," so it is not generally available yet. I'm not sure when it will be GA. I have the APL55 as well and love it. If you're looking for a good-sized standard dual-zone for your trips, I would go with the APL 55. If you're looking for a smaller form factor, then the APL35 might fit your needs.
That's a good idea. Because it's a logarithmic scale, know that a 3dB increase or decrease in the sound pressure level equals a doubling or halving of sound volume. Your gas mileage increase will really pay off. Thanks.
@InGratitudeIam thanks!! We were impressed with the improvements. Colorado Fairing Co. really knows their stuff
1st of all good suggestion to use the scientific method of getting actual power usage in different environments. When using the Jackery 500 it would not last 1 full day unless you had an outside power source recharging it ie solar panel, car power, or ac plug in. 24hr usage would be in excess or 600 wh.
I haven't seen any Fireflies in years😊
yea something kinda of magical about them..lol
Where did you get the connections for the cold water hose to the heater? Is that green hose joolca hose or just a normal water hose?
hey, great question. I got a short garden hose from Lowes and some connectors to switch male to female as needed.
Such a rad build! Is that the 6.5 bed or the 5.5?
hey thanks!! ita 5.5. I should have held out and found a 6.5 but I couldn't at the time.
@@OverlandTrailsAdventures that’s awesome! I have been looking all over to see if someone had done this. Have been considering it myself for the next build but haven’t been sure how the 5.5 would balance the weight. How’s it been for you so far?
@alpinetactics it's been good but on the brink. Can't put any more weight on the back so limited on how we can use the rack.
@@OverlandTrailsAdventures thanks for the feedback! 🙏
Just got mine and hooked it up to my EcoFlow Delta 2. So far, so good. Question about the fridge itself. What the difference with Eco/MAX? The different battery protection and what settings I should set it to?
Hey the default settings on battery protection are good.
Brother love the setup. I have an 08 with the same roof rack. I have 2 questions for you; what propane holder is that and where did you get the rubber spacers that go between your rack and hard top on the sides? Thanks
Hey thanks.. it's a 5lbs power tank holder and the four rubber spacers came with the rack.
@@OverlandTrailsAdventures gotcha. Did you just attach the power tank rack with pipe clamps/ straps? I bought my rack second hand so I didn’t get any of those. Thanks.
@@Papa__Squatch one of the options with the tank holder is some really cool pole clamp brackets.
your backyard is amazing. please do a tour...
LOL thanks. just had a gate and a gravel drive put in so I could store more stuff.
Is that a 5 or 10 lb propane tank you have there on the back?
hey, it's a 10lbs on an expedition essentials holder.
@@OverlandTrailsAdventures cool I ordered one today! Says back ordered so who knows when I’ll get it!
Just got mine today! So excited!
Really enjoying it so far.
Great video I’ve looked at all these products and am trying to upgrade from my ancient equipment! This info will help!
yep lots of choices out there. Let us know if you have any questions.
Be neat they made a fridge that was vertical rather than horizontal cooler.
I think they do. I saw it at overland expo west in there booth
@@OverlandTrailsAdventures Have to keep a eye on it! Thanks for info!
Interesting, never heard of this mattress, now I have, thanks!
It's a pretty good memory foam-style mattress. If you have an REI near you id recommend going and testing one out before you buy.
Well….I can only gamble to get one, since it is only available on Indigo and would take at least two months to maybe get….poo.
Yea that stinks. But you can get it and be ready for fall camping 🏕
@@OverlandTrailsAdventures Well I stand corrected- Shipped way Early👍😁
Grateful for this review, was ready to get Iceco VL35 ProS for my minivan for self sufficient travel, working out the layout. This is lighter, the seal seems better (but not removable), and dual zone. Time to re-measure. What is the tested energy use of this APL35 as a comparison?
Ill be testing that and putting out the video shortly. Got my new tester in!!
@@OverlandTrailsAdventures Ordered the APL35 today with cover. Thanks again!
Did it come with a dent in the front?
Lol no that's cutesy of my clumsiness
Just got one!
Be sure and let me know what ya think. We have been on the road testing it for six days and no issues at all
Headed there this Fall. Which part of the Black Hills has the biggest densest pines? Looking for a few days of solitude.
I was mainly in the south and had a good mix of pines and hardwood. Maybe the north is different
Lmao I had my left headphone ear off and thought my audio setup was borked. Nice review overall!
Lol. Thanks!! Let me know if there is any questions you may have.
I wanna go fishing !
The trout are hugh here!!
Any idea how much power it used to get there?
hey great question. One of my next tests is power consulting. Just got my new power meter in!!
@@OverlandTrailsAdventures I did a decent test last summer where I ran my fridge inside the Jeep to see how many days it lasted without recharging. Took a bunch of screen shots and recorded the temp every hour on the hour. I never put the info together in a more digestible form but it was a fun test.
@@ShawnTylerF Hell yea. That sounds like a lot of useful data.
Where did you buy it at
@jadriangarner6374 I'm doing some testing so this is a demo unit. It will be available shortly
Have my four wheel camper project M on order and I opted out on there mattress. I’m having trouble on what mattress to buy. looks like the Exped might fit better however it’s an air mattress and i’m worried about puncturing it. any advice? thanks
We run the exped duo in our alucabin. It's good but getting the air right is a pain. That's why we switched to the hest.
Hi it’s me cooper
Ordered mine today! I think its going to be the perfect size for my needs!
hey i agree. we have the go 20, jp 50, the apl 55 and the 75lit. this one will be perfect!
I got the ladder, does your ladder come apart on the top rung where you insert the hooks?
Not sure but the hooks turn
The tube that goes into the last step where the hook goes into it keeps coming out on mine. Maybe I just got a bad one.
@@Overlanding45 hmm might have. its all Chinese stuff anyway. lol
Yes, it is. Thanks for the help.
Thanks for your review....well done. I have two Iceco fridges and have been following the development of the APL35 for a few weeks. Quality manufacture with fair market pricing.
Yep I'm excited to use it on our next trip
Can the whole thing be either freezer or refrigerator - not just dual zones?
@ginaa5992 yep you can set either side how ever
How did you attach it, I'm looking to do the same.
It has hooks on the top that just hook over into the top track.ZenAscend 6.6ft Telescoping Ladder, Lightweight Collapsible Ladder with Hook, Aluminum Extension Ladders for Home, Folding Telescoping Ladder for RV, Attic, Daily Use at Home, 330 lbs… a.co/d/7RI0vXx
@@OverlandTrailsAdventures Do you have pictures or video of how it hooks? You may have saved me a lot of headaches. Been trying to figure out how to do this for weeks.
@@Stranger451 I can try and make one this week.
@@OverlandTrailsAdventures Did you remove the canvas and hang it in the track?
@Stranger451 on the right side you can open the zipper and on the left you can peel back the velcro a little and it snugs down in the groove.
Love your videos and advice. Why 2 solar panels and not just 1?
Great question!! We operate our approach to gear like Kevin from Lifestyle overland. Two is one and one is none. In this case if a panel goes out, you can still operate with one. Same on our new build (four wheel camper hawk) we put 2 200-watt panels.
Ridiculous for a phone mount
It can just depend on what you're doing.
Great video! Clearly you have experience of all these products. Loved hearing about your cooking methodology progression throughout the years.
Yep my wife knows her gear and how to use it. I've got the extra lbs to prove it..lol
You left out the tricky step…how to disconnect the cigarette socket!
Lol yea good point
Great video. Right near my home. South Dakota has some amazing places to visit.
Thanks, we will be back very soon!!
"Overlanding" is just a silly word for car glamping.
Lol
Planning to do something similar. But only on the 2/3 side. My truck is also the double cab so the space is a bit more limited.
What happens if you forget it on the tank during a swap?
Hey great question. With 10lbs tanks you don't swap you just got them refilled. And with refilling you get an actual full tank. But you do have to make sure the sensor is moved to the tank your using becausebibhave several
