Hi, I need an electric cooler for insulin. I need it to accurately stay at like 70 degrees.

You cannot set the temperature higher than 66 degrees. Also, it will not heat, only cool, so if your room's temperature ever gets below 66 degrees, it will not warm your items to keep them at 66.

I think that depends on the ambient temperature of your location and the type of cooler. I used them in a super insulated polar bear cooler (used to transport medicine) in sunny Italy and they lasted a total of 27 hours before the inside cooler temperature rose above 45 degrees F.

I'm not really sure what a safe temperature for an IV bag is, but this thing gets pretty hot. There isn't a control for temperature on this cabinet.

Use only Penguin Caps - others don't keep steady temps - I tested both. Use a heavy duty, super insulated cooler if your chemo room doesn't have a penguin freezer.

I put them in the freezer when we're taking long trips and will need extra insulin. Fridge would be fine for keeping it from getting warm on hit days. Sometimes I only use one freezer pack

I put an extra cool pak in the supplies pocket and a thermometer in between two insulin pens. It was about 45 degrees after about 10 hours, which I think is OK. The insulin in the pens did not turn milky, which I understand to be the bad indicator.

I'm sorry dear, but I didn't purchase this fridge to experiment with it, I need it to keep my two insulins cool. Why would you need to turn it off? Are you transporting foods? Perhaps you should check out the DC switch and whether there is a transformer adapter you could use in the car. That's only a guess, since I use this for home use (A/C) only. I hope this helps you.

I took it with me on one flight and had no problems at all. The device was not entirely problem free, however. It's noisy, very noisy. It worked well for me for three months keeping the temperature of the insulin between 2 and 5 degrees Celsius. But then one morning I found that it was at room temperature and my insulin was cloudy. I'm not sure if it had been frozen or cooked. It hasn't worked since then.

Hi travis, We have contacted the manufacturer, and they do not have a specific temperature range where these coolers are specified to work in. However, the representative that I spoke to feels that you will have no problems with this cooler at these temperatures and that it should work fine. I hope this helps

Depending on the Temp in your home/office. I actually have my computer in one corner of my house that gets pretty warm and my Cooler Master V8 never has a problem. I would say use liquid cooling if you have a small airless environment with a small case that has few places (vent areas on the case) to put fans. Otherwise, air cooling is easier to install/replace and will cool things down just fine.

Sorry, but this might be more of a question to the manufacturer. I wired mine up to the 110V outlet and by-pass to an old fridge to control the fermentation temperature (around 68F). I cant recall the temperature limits (max/min) but if the range goes up to 135 and you can wire to 110v then you might be in business. Hope this small info helps.

I used a Corsair A70 air cooler. Temperatures are comparable to liquid cooling. I am running a 3rd gen I5 at around 31-33 Celsius.

It is an analog control and not precise. If set low enough it can freeze the contents. Like all mini-fridges it has no internal fan to mix the air and cooler air tends to concentrate on the bottom. Depending on the drugs you are storing, this may not be a good match.

I would not recommend for temperature control. The compartments are not big enough for ice packs. Placing the whole box in the refrigerator would work.

The thermocouple appears to be soldered to the wire fairly well. I would put it in water. In fact, maybe I'll try it. I have my wire wrapped around a couple of picture hangers in the freezer and the thermocouple hanging in the middle of the chest freezer. It tends to have a temp variance of +/- 5 degrees F. I think I will try the water trick for more stable temp.

Oh, haha I destroyed my fridge already lol. Just buy any power supply, and splice the adaptor which connects to the fridge to it. Remember to practice safe soldering, keeping sure to insulate all internal components of the wires with shrink tubing. Use a power supply rated at US 120AC in and 12v 5A out. It should fix our problem

I use this for a cooler to cool meat. I can keep it at 40* . I guess it would work for that.
