Edd,
I put one of these in Perception our 33-II last year - best upgrade yet (and we've done many) Keeps the beer cold and Admiral happy .... We did get the optional AC/DC power supply also to use when on shore power which has also worked well. Took a lot of nerve to make the cuts - and NO adult beverages before cutting, but other than that a simple install. I like that it has a fan and moves the air.

I've been considering replacing it with a CoolMatic CS-NC-17, which requires cutting a pretty big hole in the side of the chest through to the hanging closet of the aft cabin. See http://www.dometic.com/beeeef37-68fa-4f42-8c4e-feacba361865.fodoc and http://www.dometic.com/enie/International/Site/Marine/Marine-Leisure/Cooling -Units/Products/?productdataid=87275. Unit sells for around $600-$700 and installation seems pretty straight forward.

As for juice, any refrigeration unit is going to be a serious amperage draw, and, personally, I would only plan on using it when the engine is running or connected to shore power. I've been warned that if I don't keep the beer cold, my crew will defect to the Klingon Empire. All the best, Edd Edd M.

I am thinking about upgrading the insulation, for the usual reasons. Not sure how much was installed originally and even less sure about how I can get into the cabinetry to determine what is there now. Something internal looks a lot more feasible but not sure of source for the right product. Planning to install myself and prepared to spend some time to get it right. The original NovaKool (sp?) works fine so far but draws a fair amount of juice. Any suggestions or prior experience with this model? Thanks. _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album <http://www.cncphotoalbum.com> http://www.cncphotoalbum.com <mailto:CnC-List@cnc-list.com> CnC-List@cnc-list.com
