- Hi, this is the Engel MT-V80F Fridge Freezer.
Quite a large fridge-freezer,
great for large groups of people to go away,
so let's check it out.

- [Kevin] Hi, I'm Kevin from Snowys Outdoors.
What we're looking at today is
the Engel MT-V80F Fridge Freezer.
Nice big fridge-freezer, really nice finish on it,
with powder coated gun metal finish on it.
The dimensions are fairly intense,
you're looking at an 89 centimetres long fridge
from handle to handle.
You're looking at width of around 49 centimetres,
and we've got an overall height of 56 centimetres tall.
Now just up this end here we've got
quite a few vents that allows the heat out.
Nice strong handle, these can come off if you want to.
And up here, of course, you've got the control panel.
On the front of the fridge here
you've got two nice solid catches
so that you can hold the fridge down.
And of course you can use that
as a locking mechanism as well,
you can fit a padlock in there.
Okay, we'll have quick look inside.
Undo these two heavy duty catches,
nice big handle there that you can use
for lifting the lid up.
We'll open her up, we've got a safety chain here,
that stops the lid from falling all the way backwards.
Inside you've got a total of 80 litres capacity.
Now the dimensions of inside the fridge are
51 and a half centimetres long,
you've got a width of 38 centimetres wide,
and you've got a depth of 40 centimetres high,
with a wall thickness of 5 centimetres,
with a high density polyurethane insulation.
Okay, so there, both these baskets
can be removed quite easily.
You can see that they're quite a strong basket,
got a couple of reinforcement cases around the side.
Now interesting thing about this fridge here,
is it has a little bracket there.
Now this is a safety feature,
that little hook goes around the top of the basket
and can fix that basket in permanently.
The whole idea of that is a safety feature
so that it stops children from wanting to climb
into the fridge and having someone
shut the lid and do the catch up.
Good idea I think, really.
Over here we've got a small LED light that comes on,
and a little magnetic switch that'll switch the light
on and off, every time that it opens and closes.
This fridge is also available as a combi.
So what happens there is you've got a divider in the middle
and that allows you to have either a freezer on side
and a fridge the other, or a fridge both sides.
If you take the basket out,
you just have a big 80 litre fridge.
Now they're pretty tall, these ones.
Quite easy, you can see it'll take a wine bottle in there,
or a milk bottle without too much trouble at all.
Okay now we're gonna have a quick look
at the business end of this fridge.
I'll just pop the lid back down.
Okay, so then around the bottom here,
you've got plenty of ventilation for the motors.
You've got a Sawafuji Swing Motor in here,
which draws between 0.5 of an amp and 4.2 of an amp
when it's running.
Two plugs here, the left hand one is a 12 volt,
the right hand one is a mains 240 volt.
Plug them in, very easy.
Just undo the plug, slot that in, and away she goes.
This end, of course you have a fuse inside there,
that just protects it against short circuits.
You wanna run it off mains power,
same sort of thing, just take the plug,
straight into the slot and then
you are ready for mains power.
Now just up here we've got the control panel.
Very easy to use.
As you can see I've got a little knob here
that I'll turn around,
wait for the fridge to start up.
Now if you watch the temperature there,
you can see I'm starting to
adjust the temperature up and down,
and it let's you go right down to as low
as -18 degrees celsius.
If you want to turn on the battery protection,
you push the mode button twice,
and it's currently off.
Hit the select button, it goes to low,
hit it again, it goes to high,
third time it goes back to off again.
Okay, I just want to explain about the
battery protection system of this fridge.
When you have it set to low,
that means it draws more current out of the battery
before it will turn itself off.
If you set the setting at high,
then it'll draw less current out of the battery,
before it turns itself off.
That means it's better for if you're using
say, a starter motor battery,
compared to an auxiliary battery.
If you don't want to use this sort of system at all,
you can switch it off
and just monitor the batteries yourself.
Okay, that's about all I can say about
the Engel MT-V80F Fridge Freezer.
Really big fridge-freezer, really big capacity,
and ideal for groups or large families
when they go away on camping trips.
So that's all I can tell you about this fridge.
