Anker SOLIX EverFrost 2

I tested the Anker SOLIX EverFrost 2 as a true battery-powered alternative to ice, set to 37°F and packed with 54 cans. The big advantage is convenience: no ice, no waterlogged labels, and you can run it off AC, DC, or even solar—plus it can charge your phone. Just know the battery life is the deciding factor, and Anker’s multi-day claim assumes you add a second battery.

Pros

+No ice needed (no melted water mess)
+Can be powered by AC, DC, or solar
+Works like a powered fridge on wheels
+Can add a second battery for longer runtime
+Can charge a phone from the cooler

Cons

-Battery dropped fast in my test and died at about 48 hours on a single included battery
-Multi-day runtime claims are based on using two batteries (second battery not included)
