  1. An even better solution is to just get a camping fridge/freezer. They run on a wall adapter and/or a 12V battery, and/or a solar blanket (gotta have all the options), have high quality compressors and actually work. Brands include Brass Monkey, Dometic, Alpicool, Rovin, etc. Camping fridge/freezers are the common solution in Australia, not just because we all go camping very often, but because we want cold drinks "at the ready", and, at all workplaces you can't just bring a device to "plug-in to mains" as we have stupid "test & tag" laws that require every device to be "tested and tagged" annually - yes, even if the device is brand new it can't be used without being "tested & tagged". The solution is everything is battery and/or solar powered as such devices don't need any "test & tag". In Australia you'll find an insane amount of devices that run on power tool batteries, on their own batteries (fridges/freezers), and many things that run from USB power.
