    I got a trick for travelling. Just take any old cooler. Every time you stop for fuel, get one or two big gulp cups of ice from the gas station (used to be free) and add to cooler. End up with an eclectic collection of cups at the end.

    The only scenarios where I need 3 days of ice are long camps and extended power outages. Unfortunately I have not been camping for years now and the power outages are usually short lived.

    I wonder how much better insulated a refridgerator is than your average Coleman 48? >> could a dorm fridge be repurposed into a cooler of sorts if the benefit is there?
