With solar, a lot of ppl make the mistake of installing panels on the roof and they have died from falling while clearing snow in the winter! My panels are over 6 feet long and 4 feet off the ground & keep the snow cleared under them. Winter configuration is facing South and completely vertical so snow does not collect on them & they always charge with a minimum of maintenance. Just food for though for a future electric freezer!

Boss, I have to admit I was so impressed with your ice box idea in your upstate NY cabin that I went and built one in my workshop, just for power outages and/or SHTF emergencies. I remember back in the 70's at my Dad's NH cabin, we used an antique ice box whenever we were staying there. Beautiful piece of craftsmanship but like you said, not really great at keeping groceries chilled in the summer months. Dad always kept the beer in a separate metal Coleman cooler. Priorities!

Just subbed. Nice channel. We'll be binging. We quickly tired of the excess LP gas usage in winter. Our place is so small that our wood stove caused the frig to run constantly. Especially when we were cooking. And so I cut a hole in an outside wall of our kitchen. I then mounted a small (broken down) apartment sized frig outside the hole. Using a hole saw, I cut a 2" hole in the outside rear of the unit and another on the door front. I put a tiny 12v fan over each hole and connected them to separate thermostatic switches. The door fan turns on drawing air through the outside hole when the frig gets too warm. The back fan kicks on to pull air through the front hole when the temp gets too cold. There are a couple of things that I'd do differently (like flappers on each hole and full sized frig) but for the most part, its pretty darn sweet.

Great video Boss . I remember that outdoor cooler when you built it at the New York Cabin . The problem with a propane fridge and freezer is that you have to vent it . Unique do sell a 12 volt fridge . MBF have one and they love it . No need for an outside vent . Doesn't take much power to run it and you don't need a gigantic solar power set up to run it . It's also good for people who have a cabin and visit it on the weekends . Fridge is always cold and it's free power . Another good reason not to build so close to the ground . A higher building allows you to store items underneath . If you wanted to keep a cooler stay colder longer than people should do what you did and line the inside with bubble foil . That was in another of your videos . Many homes in my area have a cold room built in under the front porch . Problem is if that porch is facing South it doesn't get that cold . Mine faces North and I put all kinds of things in there .Take care .

You are my hero I bought a Vest-frost 30 years ago. Runs off a small solar system uses about 80 watts a day. Sundanzer makes some great units. Made in Arizona USA

Much love brother! Now that I'm finally retired from the military and the off grid dream if coming to fruition (as soon as the snow melts and I can move) I needed to brush up on your genius refrigerator. I'll be moving to the middle of the forest (literally) in extreme northwest Montana so your refrigeration idea will be perfect for about 8--9 month out of the year for me (WooHoo!) Thanks again for everything you do, hope all is going well.

You are what I like and relate to us Preppers. Problem solvers and creative ways. If it doesn’t work one way try another way or the opposite way you tried and failed the first way.Preppers don’t give up and I think we are very adaptable and have the determination to survive! The one thing I have observed is we on the whole think out of the box I like Preppers. I get you. Prep on brothers snd sisters. We’ve got this!

I know how challenging it is to travel two days in a car with a cooler, I can’t imagine how hard it must have been to use a cooler everyday like you did. You have really developed a great system for storing your food. Love the whole process and I think you helped a lot of people with this video. Always a pleasure to watch. Thanks

2 years out of a cooler was maddening but still better than living in my apartment in the city :-o
