Mine you...i have zero knowledge. Are these portable fridge plug and play? Can i just plug it into my 12V in the back and it will run constantly (while engine on)??

I don’t have a 4runner...but thinking about this for my Sienna...would fit in the “tub” in the back...and i have 12V and 110 in the cargo.

not sure if it's the same problem in the sienna, but in the 5th gen 4Runner the existing 12V plug has enough voltage drop that it will prematurely shutoff fridges and cause issues so most people run a dedicated 12V plug.

in general though yes it's just plug and play

I had the photo issue too, now that Photobucket is defunct for hosting.

If you post the photos into your User CP (top left tab) "album(s)" here, it makes it super easy because it gives you an [IMG] copy and paste-able link that you can then post into a comment to use the picture.

Make sense?

I’m curious of the 65-75 as well. I love the 75 for the feature of a True dual zone fridge/freezer but I just don’t know how it will fit in a 2017? 75 seems really big when I saw it in person. Not sure how much breathing room this unit needs? Any input or photos of a 65 and or a 75 in 5th gen would be awesome.

Hey @Dometic just bought the CFX75 on the Labor Day sale...do you know if the Slide will fit in the 5th Gen 4Runner by chance?

thanks!

Bought a stock 02 4runner about a year ago when I got to Germany, hoping to start building it this summer. Been looking at installing a fridge and Dometic is what's caught my attention the most. The cfx 35w is what I'm planning on getting, for now at least, may go bigger once state side and the truck gets used more for longer trips.

Are the fridges both 110 and 220? I do plan to ship the truck stateside once I'm done in Germany, so would it be a problem? I plan on running a dedicated 12v to the rear for the fridge anyways.

Thanks

Cfx3 35

Just received the latest model CFX3 35. Will be installing it next week in my 5th gen on a platform I built. I’ll be using the DFG Offroad fridge slide.
I’ve been testing the fridge the last 3 days. I didn’t want to go through the hassle of a dual battery setup, so I have it plugged into a Jackery 500 L-ion generator which I will plug into the 12 volt outlet in the back when driving, and when camping, I bought a Goal Zero Boulder 100 suitcase solar panel to charge the Jackery while camping.
I charged the Jackery to full capacity and ran the Dometic (empty) inside my garage for 48 hours and used 70% of the generator’s capacity.
I expect the fridge to do even better when it contains food and drink and is pre chilled, but that will be offset by opening the fridge several times while camping.
Once I get the slide installed on the platform, I’ll post some pictures of the setup.

Can these be run straight off the battery or is a dual battery setup necessary? Or maybe just a goal zero?

Read the post directly above yours. My Jackery 500 lithium is basically the same as the Goal Zero lithium, but cheaper by $100. Got mine for $425 when they were on sale about a month ago. Works great with my Dometic and no need to wire up a second battery or run dedicated 12 volt to the back. I just didn’t want the hassle of doing either of those things, plus...I can use the Jackery for other things if I want to, and I also charge it with a solar panel as well.

I'm running a Dometic 63qt wired directly to the battery. Ran the wiring through the firewall grommet, under the driver side floor trim and to the back to power the fridge.

I run the CC40 connected directly to the 12V outlet in the back. No worries about voltage drop or draining the battery as it draws only a small amount of power and shuts off when the ignition is off. Its as foolproof as you can get. It opens to the side so you can easily get stuff out without the lid closing on you.

@BlakeA have you run this battery setup much as of yet? I was contemplating the same approach, but using my PLB40 instead. I removed that 12V outlet to get a look, and the wires that run into it have got to be 18 AWG (pretty small). Has me a little worried about pulling ~8 amps continuously during a charge...though it looks like your Jackery 500 will only pull 3.6 amps, so maybe not as big a concern for you.

Thanks!

Actually, I have NOT had a chance to run this system for any length of time, other than testing. I may not get a chance to until July. Before I bought this setup, I watch some YouTube videos where some people had run similar setups though, so I’m reasonably confident it should work fine.
