Yide makes a kind of cooler called a compressor cooler, which cools things using a compressor. While standard coolers just rely on ice packs or insulation to stay cool, compressor coolers can actually chill things out, much the way a refrigerator does. This makes them very convenient for keeping snacks and drinks cool when you’re camping, going for a drive, or enjoying a day with friends outside.
The initial major difference between a compressor cooler and a traditional cooler is the way they function. In typical coolers, cooling is achieved through ice packs or insulation. Which is to say that they can only remain cold for so long before the ice melts, or the insulation begins to warm up. Compressor coolers, however, rely on a unique type of compressor to cool things off. That means they can hold a cold temperature much longer and are ideal for those long trips or outdoor adventures.
One of the hardest things about the a compressor cooler is that it can keep things cold for a really long time. Since they employ a compressor to keep things cold, they can remain cold for days at a stretch without being recharged with ice or having their insulation replaced. This is why they’re ideal for something like a camping trip or even a road trip when you don’t have access to a traditional radio.
Another huge benefit of compressor coolers is that they will keep things cold no matter the ambient conditions are. Traditional coolers work by using things like ice packs or insulation to keep the contents cold, which can make it difficult for them to keep things cool in extremely hot or extremely cold conditions. Compressor coolers, however, will remain cold regardless of the outside temperature. Which makes them an excellent choice for outdoor activities such as hiking in the mountains or hanging out at the beach.
It’s super easy to keep items cold in any environment with a compressor cooler. You just need to plug it into a power source, such as a car outlet or a portable battery, and switch it on. The compressor will kick on to cool off the interior of the cooler, ensuring your food and drinks stay nice and cold. Some compressor coolers even have temperature controls, allowing you to control the temperature of the cooler to the ideal for whatever you’re storing inside.
For cooler compressors, it's the same basic principle as in drier compressors, but the equipment is designed specifically to cool things down. The compressor does this by compressing a gas of a special kind that makes it very cold. The cold gas is then pumped through the interior cooler, sopping up the heat from your food and drinks and leaving them chilled. The compressor then returns this gas to the system, where it is compressed in the same way and the cycle starts again.
