EV whot? I hear you say.

I got one a while back and tweaked it so when the lads go for a motorsickle cruise at the end I have the most popular top box as it is full of cold beers.
From Jaycar and can be plugged into 12, 24 or 240V. But you can also drop a battery in to it. Mine lasts about 8-9 hours at 3 degrees on battery alone. Very handy for shopping in rural as the closest is 40min drive away but we can get ice cream and other frozens without fear of defrost. Load it up in the city plugged into 240Vthen drop it into the car and plug it in. When the car is turned on it swaps to the car power, when you turn the car off it auto swaps back to battery. When you turn the car/boat back on it swap as back again and charges the battery at the same time. Damn clever and bloody handy.
Assorted sizes but this one hold 15 cans and is on special at JayCar as of today for only $179 but I think that may not include the battery.
I have no skin in this game but are a fan of handy items of which it certainly is one.
