Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Koolatron Multi-Purpose Adapter 110AC to 12 Volts DC ( Model AC-15)
Customer Review: Excellent product
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently purchased the Koolatron Multi-Purpose Adapter to use with my Koolatron thermoelectric cooler while on vacation. It worked perfectly! I used it in our hotel room for five days without any problems. It did get warm, as all adapters do, but it certainly never got hot. I was able to use my cooler as a refrigerator in the room, thanks to this adapter! I highly recommend this product to everyone.Customer Review: Finally an Adapter that works!!
Summary: 5 Stars
You must buy this Koolatron multi-purpose adapter to go with your Koolatron cooler. No other adapter will work. Sandy E.
Customer Review: Get's hot.
Summary: 3 Stars
This adapter worked well at getting my cooler cold before putting it in my car and at night when not travelling. The unit itself seems to get hot and makes me wonder if there is something wrong with it. Not sure it's supposed to do that.Customer Review: Gets very hot, smells horrible!
Summary: 2 Stars
This product certainly works to cool my Kooltron P95, but it gets extrememly hot to the point that I am afraid to leave it plugged in unattended. It emits a terrible odor, and I plan to return it.Customer Review: Good Idea, But Undersized And Underpowered.
Summary: 1 Stars
Bought this adapter to work with the Koolatron P-20 cooler (/warmer), but unfortunately after 30 minutes of cooling indoors it began to emit a burned resistor smell. And when I picked it up, it was very hot to the touch. Not good signs, from my experience.
Comparing it to my AC-to-DC adapter from Igloo, it's much lighter and seems to be under-designed. You can't fool Mother Nature--increased weight usually means greater power handling capacity. In this case it just isn't there. Overheating isn't what I bought it for, either. In contrast, the Igloo adapter works endlessly with getting overly hot or giving off a smell. It weighs almost twice as much, too, which seems to be related.
Save your time and money and get something more capable. You'll be glad you did. Amazon has been breathtakingly cooperative in this matter, by the way, at least so far. Free return shipping and emailed labels are the way it should be done.
