Your New Portable Kitchen: 12-Volt Travel Appliances

Now it’s easier than ever to prepare a fresh, healthy meal in your car, truck, RV, or anywhere you can find a 12V power source.

People have been using their 12 volt coolers as coolers for quite some time. There are many factors to consider when choosing a cooler / heater that is right for you. I say colder / warmer because many 12 volt refrigerators can keep things warm too. The most common use, a portable cooler, has been mentioned. Many of these refrigerators are designed to stand upright like a real refrigerator and are capable of cooling down to 40 degrees below room temperature. This means you can be comfortable in your vehicle and not have to worry about food spoiling. There are many sizes and styles available to choose from. You may also be considering a 12 volt rechargeable cooler. It is an excellent option for those who enjoy a picnic or excursion. You may decide to purchase an AC to DC converter so that you can charge your refrigerator overnight before your trip home. Charging can take up to 5 hours, depending on the cooler model you choose.

I can’t start the day without a fresh cup of coffee and I don’t like instant coffee. Yuck! I’m a die-hard foodie, so when I go on a trip I’m sure to have my 12-volt coffee maker with me. There is none of that. Like a normal coffee pot in your kitchen, add water and coffee grounds and turn it on. These coffee makers plug directly into the 12-volt cigarette lighter socket. There are many 12 volt coffee makers to choose from. I do not recommend using your coffeemaker while operating your vehicle or while in a vehicle that is in motion. Pots full of hot coffee at high speeds is never a great idea.

Are you a fan of fresh fruit and vegetable drinks? This can be as rewarding as a big breakfast and a strong cup of coffee. Not the kind of breakfast? An energetic lunch may be on your menu once you start looking for 12-volt blenders. Ideal for all common blender uses when preparing a meal or snack, the 12-volt blender is a great addition to your mobile kitchen. While you may not get the super fine juicing results of a real fruit / vegetable juicer, it is the best option. Home juicer owners may consider a 12V DC to 110V AC power inverter to power their juicer on the go.

Whats Next? Ahhh yeah, it’s time to cook up some of that great food you’ve been keeping fresh in your 12-volt fridge. Again, there are many options and many factors to consider when choosing the right 12 volt kitchen accessories for you. There are 12-volt pans with lids, 12-volt saucepans / popcorn with lids, 12-volt stoves, 12-volt ovens, and 12-volt slow cookers. There are even aluminum pans made just for use with 12-volt ovens.

There are many 12 volt cigar lighter plug multipliers / multiplexers to choose from so you can have one plug for each of your 12 volt kitchen items. Something that many people don’t think about or maybe just don’t know is power supply and safety. If you’re not careful when connecting all of your 12-volt devices, you could end up with a big problem. You must take into account the power requirements of each item that you want to turn on. Most vehicle wiring is only rated for 20-30 amps. What does this mean for you? Well, if you plug in some things and blow a fuse when you turn them on, you need more power. Installing a larger fuse may work, but it can also help you start a vehicle fire. You need to make sure that the wire going to and from the fuse can handle the energy that will now pass it through.

12 volt power recommendations. This is just a brief overview of installing more 12-volt power options in your car, truck, or RV. Some mechanical skills are required to do this job. You must install a new 12-volt outlet for each appliance or device you wish to operate. This is a very simple task for most truckers and car commuters, RVs are just as easy, but running your new cable may take a little longer. If you plan to install several new 12-volt outlets in the same general area, you may consider taking a small automotive fuse block. In most cases, a length of 8-gauge power wire runs (from your vehicle’s battery positive terminal). A car amplifier installation kit is a great way to pick up the 8-gauge wire. wanted. Do not connect the cable to the battery until EVERYTHING else is ready. Run your new wire from the battery compartment to the area where you will install your new fuse block. Once your fuse block is wired and your new 12-volt plugs are installed and properly connected to your fuse block, you can connect your new power cord to your vehicle’s battery.
