Thetford T1274E 274L Upright Compressor Fridge

$3,659.00

The Thetford T1274E is one of the largest 12V-only DC compressor refrigerators available for the Australian caravan market, offering 202 litres of fresh food storage and a 72-litre dedicated freezer in a 614 mm-wide cabinet that requires absolutely no external roof or wall ventilation. Designed specifically for Australian conditions, it features uprated fans engineered to handle sustained high ambient temperatures.

A day/night operating mode reduces fan noise during sleeping hours without compromising food safety. Average energy use of 51.7 Ah per 24 hours is well within the range of a 200–250 Ah lithium battery bank with adequate solar. At 57 kg, it is lighter than comparable absorption units, and the reversible door hinge suits either left or right opening. Part number: 692959.
