The Koolatron SK40 is a portable refrigerator freezer with a 42-quart (40-liter) capacity and a gray plastic finish. It uses compressor cooling technology and can maintain temperatures ranging from -8°F to 50°F (-22°C to 10°C). The unit includes Bluetooth connectivity and comes with both 12-volt DC and 110V AC power cords for operation.
This appliance is designed for travel use, particularly in automotive applications where it can run off a vehicle's 12-volt power system or standard household AC power. The temperature range allows it to function as either a refrigerator or freezer depending on settings.

Before purchasing, verify that the 42-quart capacity and power requirements meet your specific needs and available space.

About Koolatron

Koolatron has carved out a distinctive niche in the refrigeration market since its founding in 1983 in Brantford, Ontario, Canada. Originally known for pioneering portable thermoelectric coolers, the brand has expanded its focus considerably, and Fridge.com currently tracks 45 active products across the Koolatron lineup. The catalog reveals a strong emphasis on freezer solutions, with 17 chest freezers and 16 upright freezers representing the bulk of available models.
