Description

Stay chilled on the road with the Dometic CFF18. Compact but roomy, it’s a 12V fridge freezer built for off-grid living and tight campervan conversion spaces. Whether you’re chasing swell or parked lakeside, this wee unit keeps your food fresh and drinks cold without chewing through battery.

Benefits:

  • Fits snug in most campervan conversion layouts at 508 x 422 x 316mm
  • Cooling range from +10 °C to –18 °C, so it works as a fridge or a freezer
  • Runs from 12/24V DC or 100–240V AC, with both power cords supplied
  • Uses about 0.66Ah an hour at 12V (32 °C ambient, 4 °C inside), ideal for solar setups
  • 19L of space with a removable divider, enough for 24 cans or four 1.5L bottles
  • Dimmable digital display and LED interior light, plus a rubber-cushioned handle

Features:

The Dometic CFF18 punches above its weight in any campervan conversion. The variable-speed compressor sips power, drawing about 0.66Ah an hour at 12V under Dometic’s test conditions (32 °C ambient, 4 °C inside), which is roughly 16Ah over 24 hours, so it’s sweet for solar or dual battery systems. The lid opens from the top, which means less cold loss each time you grab a snack, and at 10kg it’s easy to shift when needed. Just set the temp on the digital panel and let it do the mahi.

The CFF18 fixing kit is sold separately. Power it from a fused 12V supply.

Run it from your 12-Way Fuse Block, backed by a 100Ah AGM battery.

CFF18 Portable Fridge Freezer Manual

People are asking

How much power does the Dometic CFF18 draw on 12V?

Dometic rates the CFF18 at 0.66Ah an hour on 12V DC with 32 °C ambient and 4 °C inside, which is about 16Ah over 24 hours. While the compressor is running it draws up to 4.5A at 12V. On a 100Ah battery with solar charging that is comfortable for most NZ conditions, but real use varies with ambient temperature and how often the lid is opened.

Can the CFF18 be used as a freezer?

Yes. The temperature can be set anywhere from +10 °C down to -18 °C, so the CFF18 works as a fridge or a freezer. It is a single-zone unit, so the whole 19L is held at one temperature.

Is the CFF18 suitable for a small van build?

It measures 508mm wide, 422mm high and 316mm deep and weighs 10kg, so it suits small vans where space is tight. It can sit on a bench or be fixed in place with the Dometic fixing kit (sold separately). Measure your space and leave room around it for airflow.
