Equipt Expedition Outfitters Announces New National Luna Legacy Fridge/Freezers for Overland and Vehicle-based Travel
Equipt Expedition Outfitters, the industry leader in high-quality, vehicle expedition equipment, and the exclusive U.S. distributor of National Luna, the South African-based 12V experts within the overlanding market, is excited to announce the next evolution of fridges and freezers. With decades of proven experience on every major continent, National Luna’s portable 12V fridges and freezers have consistently outperformed the competition and set the industry’s benchmark for durability, efficiency, and performance. Today, they set another standard with the unveiling of their new Legacy Fridges and Freezers powered by their latest ingenuity, a proprietary Off-Road Compressor. The new National Luna Legacy Fridges and Freezers will cool down faster and stay cool longer, all with less energy. Prices starting at only $995.
So what are the secret ingredients?
BETTER COMPRESSOR = MORE EFFICIENCY
The new National Luna Legacy Fridges and Freezers run on less energy thanks to the hard work of the new National Luna Off-Road Compressor, resulting in a performance increase. Having been the experts in 12V portable fridges for over 30 years, National Luna’s ingenious design team developed their own compressor. The all-new Legacy models are fitted with this new Off-Road Compressor and have an AC/DC electronic power supply fitted as standard equipment. The Legacy models will operate from 9.6V to 31.5V DC, as well as AC voltage ranging from 100V to 240V. Automatic switching is standard. After rigorous development and testing, this OEM Off-Road Compressor, designed specifically to handle the rumble and tumble of off-roading, reduces energy consumption and improves overall performance. This compressor comes with an 8-year warranty.
BETTER CONTROLS = MORE FREEDOM
Smarter construction is one element of National Luna’s superior performance. Smarter compressor control is the other. The National Luna Off-Road Compressor will automatically operate in the high-speed TURBO mode until the temperature set point is reached. Thereafter it will operate in the energy-efficient idle mode, ensuring optimal power consumption. Because different battery types can be discharged to various levels, you have the power to select the depth of discharge of the battery, ie. how low you intend to allow the battery to flatten. All National Luna fridges and freezers incorporate Low/Medium/High battery cut-out protection circuitry. And finally, when it comes to operating your National Luna fridge or freezer, you are in charge like no other manufacturer. Equipped with an easy-to-read digital thermostat, the programmable intelligent controller allows you to set the exact temperature while simultaneously showing you the current compartment temperature. TURBO mode can also be manually selected.
BETTER DENSITY = MORE INSULATION
The new National Luna Legacy Fridges and Freezers feature a higher density insulation around the compartments to increase the overall insulation value. With the coupled power from their latest and greatest new Off-Road Compressor, working hard to cool the fridge and freezer compartments down more rapidly, the higher density insulation ensures the compartments retain a longer cool period. Yet another way to ensure less energy consumption.
BETTER CONSTRUCTION = MORE CONSISTENCY
Made with a Stainless Steel exterior and aluminum interior, National Luna fridges and freezers are metal inside and out. The durability benefits are obvious, but it also provides better cooling. Metal cabinets and metal inner liners coupled with a unique manufacturing process allows the latest generation foam to be injected under high pressure resulting in denser, more effective insulation. The result? Maximum interior space with a more compact overall footprint. And while plastic fridges use a separate “refrigeration plate”, National Luna’s inner aluminum metal construction in conjunction with copper cooling piping means less cold spots (we all know that terrible single spot that freezes everything and shouldn’t?). This keeps temperatures stable across the whole of the interior, cuts running time, reduces how long it takes to the fridge to pull the temperature down once new contents are added, and keeps food fresher for longer.
