Guest guest Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 So how do these puppies work? That is, clearly they work when the engine is on. But do they/how do they work once the engine is off? Do you have to shlep them into the hotel every night or something to plug them in - or do they still continue to cool and function when the engine is off at night, etc?

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 I have one, and it works in the car plugged into the cigarette lighter. If you keep it plugged in while the car is not running, it will drain the battery. For day trips, I put a frozen ice cooler in it so I can unplug it for a short while for stops, and food stays cold. For overnight, I bought a converter so I can plug it into the outlet in a hotel. I do have to shlep it, so I bought a small one. Despite this, it has been a lifesaver on road trips.
