Positive battery and accessory review

I've read some other reviews questioning the reliability of this device but I've been using it 24/7 for 6 months and it works as advertised. A useful accessory, especially if you don't want to lug a cool box to your hotel room every evening.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Zero

Newer cars can handle it

If you have a newer car and prefer to sit in it and want them to make car turns don't worry, at least 2018s and newer Your aftermarket lighting switches internally off, this is not required

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Some cons

Must Have Accessory

We have been traveling with the Koolatron in our truck for four years now and leave it plugged into the truck at night when we sleep in hotels. With this energy saving battery, we never run out of truck battery no matter how hot it is outside. The Koolatron keeps our food cold and the battery saver allows us to start the truck in the morning.

Pros
  • Nice Thing
Cons
  • Negative Gift

Saves battery power as advertised

I bought the Koolatron Battery Saver because my car's 12v outlet is always on. I use the outlet to power my dash cam and phone charger and I don't always forget to unplug them, which leads to premature battery failure when the car is left idle for several days. Koolatron comes to the rescue: it only turns on when the engine starts and turns off automatically until the battery dies. Now I don't have to worry about leaving things plugged in knowing it will save my battery. It's also a quality…

Works great - Batteries

My SUV has a permanent plug in the back and I use it to power my 12v Koolatron (D24) cooler. But since it's always on, I'd have to turn it off if I stopped for a while to make sure my battery wasn't drained. This is where the Koolatron Battery Saver comes in. It plugs into my car's outlet and then the cool box. It continues to power my cooler until it detects my battery is starting to discharge (about 11 volts) and then cuts power to the cooler. Now I can just leave the cool box plugged in and…

Pros
  • 6ft power cord
Cons
  • New Competitors

Don't buy this! That does not work!

I'm traveling with a purchased Koolatron cooler, which I also don't recommend. The energy saving mode does not work. It plugs in and works until the car is turned off, and shortly after it is turned off, the energy saving indicator will change color from green to red and turn off the cooler. I would say 5-10 minutes after parking the car. I don't understand buying this product or colder products as they only work when the engine is running. What if you have to stop? Also, it takes quite a while

Pros
  • Automatically cuts power to 12V accessories when voltage drops below 11V
Cons
  • Volume

Works perfectly! for spare parts

That should be a standard SUV buying issue! This should already be a built-in function. If you are reading this review you are the target market to buy this. I use this extensively for long distance and night riding in my Honda Element. During the day it helps me make ice cream in my 12v freezer and at night it helps me warm up the car with a 12v heater without worrying about draining the car battery. When I wake up in the morning after a cold night and use my heater, I make sure that my…

Pros
  • Auto restart when car starts
Cons
  • Crumpled

Good insurance for an electric cooler, but not for long.

Works very well. After reading the reviews I decided to test before the trip. I connected a small 12v AGC battery and then connected my Igloo electric cooler. It worked for about 30 minutes before the voltage dropped somewhere between 11 and 12 volts. I couldn't verify the exact shutdown voltage as it recovered somewhat after the battery saver shut down the cooler. I'm guessing the shutdown was around 11 volts since the quiescent voltage was less than 12 volts. Review dated July 20, 2016. My…

Pros
  • Works in any car with a standard 12v socket
Cons
  • Some bugs
