In 15 minutes, I was able to cool the unit from a reading of 87°f to 36°f using the supplied cable and charger, in a room that was 74°f. I see a lot of complaints that are related to improper use. If you are having problems, read and understand this whole review. This unit does work, and it's limitations are in the instructions, but it may take an engineer to understand the limitations and explain them properly.I am an electrical engineer. And I happen to have very specific knowledge about how this unit operates, and why some people have issues with it. This is a 10 watt rated peltier junction refrigeration device. As long as the fan works, this unit will be functional as the solid state nature of the cooling device should have it last a lifetime. But for it to work for you, you will need to understand how to power this unit. This unit has a short USB C cable, and requires a power supply that can handle 5v at 2 amps to supply the rated power of 10 watts. If you don't use the power supply that came with it, you may have trouble finding USB ports that put out enough power. The standard USB2 port can only put out 1/4th the power this unit is rated to use. If you plug it into a standard USB port, the unit may only provide a tiny amount of cooling, and it may not be enough if it is in a warm location.This unit draws 1.5A of power when it is cooling, and if your power supply can't put that much power out, the cooler may not have enough power to do the job.This is important to understand... This unit can provide a maximum of 50° of cooling. That means if you want it to never get above 47° it must never be stored above 97° with insulin inside... If you put it in the trunk of the car on a 110° day in the Texas sun, the inside of the trunk may get as hot as 150°. at that temperature the coolest your medicine will be is 100°. On a hot dashboard where I have measured temperatures of 170°, you can expect internal temperatures no cooler than 120°. The 50° cooling this unit provides is a real limit, so plan accordingly.This is a reliable device, but power cords are frequently mistreated, so buy extras, and don't buy the cheapest cord you can get. To provide the 2 amps of power, you need a proper thick usb A to C cable that is capable of carrying power, so look for cables labeled "quick charging" to insure they are designed to carry the rated power. If you want a long cable, it must be thicker, so get one rated for 100 watts or more (for best results). The longer the cable, the less cooling you will get, so even though this is a 10 watt device, the reduced voltage drop from a 100 watt cable will provide help you get the maximum cooling.And if you use a power bank, be aware you will be drawing 8 watts when it is cooling, and in a warm location that drain will be continuous. Most power banks are rated at a higher wattage than they actually support, so it is best to assume the power bank will only put out 25% of the claimed power, but it could be as much as 75% from a high quality brand, but most you see on amazon are going to be closer to the 25% range. This unit draws 1.5Amps, that is 1500 miliamps. So to run this unit for 24 hours in a warm location, it wants 1500 miliamp hours of power per hour, so 36,000 mah per day. a 30,000 mah power bank *should* run this for exactly 20 hours, but in my experience you can expect 5 hours from cheap power banks, and perhaps 15 hours for a good power bank rated 30,000mah. The reasons the ratings don't provide real-world results is the batteries are 3.7v rather than 5v, so power is reduced by stepping the voltage up to 5v, and it is further reduced because 95% of the batteries from china do not actually hold the amount of power they claim, so the rating of the power bank will be off by however big the lie was when they sourced their batteries.And finally, this unit turns off cooling at 36° and turns it back on at 46°, so the temperature will cycle across that range. I use two insulin and one liraglutide products. The strorage instructions are long term storage in the 34-45°f range, and storage BELOW 80°f for up to 30 days after first use. I have changed brands several times, these temperature ranges are common to all of the insulin/diabetes injectables I have used. so if you are carrying a 2 week supply, for 2 weeks, then 79°f is a target temperture to stay under (you guys that think you must have insulin be refrigerated all the times are either wrong, or you are using a cheap and unstable form of insulin. The point is I read a lot of reviews of people that claim cooling requirements that may not be actually true. Read the whole label on your injectables, not just the part that says keep refrigerated. Mine say below 80 for up to a month. Most of yours will too. The important thing here is this means that the maximum powered storage temperture for a 2 week supply is 79°f, which with the 50°f cooling capacity means your medications can be kept safe up to around 120°f if fully powered and out of direct sunlight. Direct sunlight will add heat.The biogel will work at higher temperatures, but the hotter the shorter it lasts. If you are packing without power, I would generally trust the ratings of the biogel, as that is a reliable source of cooling. If you travel by plane, be aware that the biogel must be frozen to get past security. If it is melted, you will not be allowed to have it in carry on luggage, and they will make you throw it away. So using the biogel for air travel requires you to have it fully frozen in security, or you will need to pack it in checked luggage. But if your luggage is lost, all bets are off as to the condition of your medications, as they might spend a week in a metal box in the sun at an airport, so a reason TO and a reason NOT TO store in checked luggage. Decisions decisions. Buy two coolers and store half of your supply in checked luggage and half in carry on.So to recap:- provide power from a "fast charge" capable power supply- Provide at least 10 watts of power on a good cable- Do not store it at temperatures exceeding 50°f of the desired medicine temperature when powered- Cools quickly when empty, probably needs an hour or so if full (unless you prechill as recommended)- If you are having problems call the number on the door hanger- The warmer it is, the longer this will take to cool down (reality is harsh)- Test your power supply and know your limits- Cars can get really hot, 75°f higher than the temperature outside is easily possible, so this cooler can't do it's job in a hot car for long- The temperature of the display is that of the cooling device, you will see it cycle up and down from 36° to 46°, but the ACTUAL temperature of your meds will be the higher of the temperatures you see it cycling between.I did several tests using the provided charger, and the unit works GREAT. It performs up to the claimed capabilities. It cannot do the impossible... nothing can. I paid $200 for this, I think the value justifies the price. There are plenty of biogel based coolers for 1/8th the price, I still think the value justifies the cost of this unit. I'm an engineer, I could make one of these for under $50, with about $1000 worth of labor. Buying one already made is a good value.

We were going on an extended trip to various national parks, and I knew we would be staying at places with electrical power but without a refrigerator, which is why I bought one of these. Wasn't sure what to expect, but this unit was a lifesaver! I used the frozen biogel pack while I was traveling by plane. We had several long car trips as we traveled, so I plugged into the car USB port and the temperature stayed good. When we stopped off for sightseeing on the way, I plugged it into my Anker portable battery and the temperature stayed within a safe range as well. At the lodges without refrigerators, I kept it plugged into the wall charger (after 4 days they tell you to turn it off for a short time to let the unit rest, then you can plug it back in). Overall, this worked as advertised and it made traveling much easier! I don't know how I could have kept my meds cool without it. I know this is a bit expensive, but believe me, it's well worth it for what it does. The only thing that I think could be improved is to add an alarm in case the power goes out. We stayed at one cabin where I had it plugged into a wall charger and the power went out during the night. Fortunately, my husband woke up and realized it and called the management office to have them reset the power, otherwise I wouldn't have known until morning. I highly recommend it!

Our fridge started to act erratically with troubling temperature fluctuations. While we waited to find out what was wrong, we needed to find something to store my husband’s diabetes medications and we needed it fast and it had to be reliable. I looked at scads of different options from mini-fridges, coolers, gels, you name it -I read about it. I was almost on the point of getting one of those dorm fridges (which I absolutely didn’t want, but what we were going to do for his meds?) when I saw a woman in a video holding what looked like a thermos. It seemed interesting so I watched. WELL – THIS WAS THE ANSWER TO MY PRAYERS.This thing seems to be more for people who travel and need something to keep their meds at the right temperatures. One way to use it is with Biogel that you freeze and then insert into the thermos. But the part that interested me is that it plugs into a power source and maintains temperatures of 36°-46°F. It can be affected by ambient temps – so this is something to be aware of. It does have its space limitations inside, but for us it is a godsend.Basically the outer part is a thermos. The screw on cap, which has a place to insert a USB wire and then plug into an outlet is the power source. The cap has a long open ended tube which is where the cooling is and it is into this tube that the meds are stored. I was able to fit 4 Levemir (that’s all we had at the time) inside the tube. Or I could have put in 2 Trulicity. Be aware that it will not fit more than 2 Trulicity (one up and one down) because of the ridiculously large base of their pen. I actually called Lilly medical and asked them to rethink their design - it’s too big.So, although the fridge is semi-working again, (now the temps are too cold and no amount of adjusting seems to make it warmer, but according to the repair people, there’s nothing wrong with the fridge. What?) we’re essentially using it full time. It’s a teeny weeny, itsy bitsy mini refrigerator and so far it’s working beautifully. It doesn’t require much room, is extremely quiet, shows the temp right at the top for easy monitoring and although I have it on a table in my living room, it is not in any way an eyesore. If you weren’t looking for it, you’d probably not notice it.If I have any complaints it’s that it’s kind of expensive and it isn’t big enough inside. But I actually got to speak to the VP of the company and asked him about making something bigger that isn’t necessarily portable. I’m sure we’re not the only ones to have a fridge conk out with no place to store insulin or other meds needing refrigeration. He said that it takes research and time to get it right and who could fault them for wanting to do it right - not fast. Hopefully they'll work on something. Because I have to say that I feel very confident about the quality of this product.So, I’ll tell you how much I love this little thing – I named it. They call it Voyager which made me think of space which made me think of Star Trek which made me think of an especially iconic character. So we’re calling it CAPTAIN KIRK because really, this too is one of a kind.

This works amazing - I no longer have to obsessed with what temp my meds are while travelling. I highly recommend purchasing the charging station that goes with it and your trip will be worry free. I’ve used it for three weeks steady and it did not disappoint. Very thankful for whomever invented it!

Used it for the first time this weekend and it worked flawlessly. It's solid, compact and very practical. While running the fan is very quiet and you have to really listen to hear it running. I got the power pack for it and it ran it for quite a long time. While travelling I did notice that the time with the battery can be impacted by the surrounding temperature. Some cons are that there is no way to change the temp reading to Celcius and a bluetooth connection to both allow for monitoring and notifications when there's a looming shutdown due to lack of battery. Would I recommend this product? Yes I would and already have.

Siguiendo el canal de type one talks, en YouTube encontré este producto. Desafortunadamente no existen muchas reseñas deeste producto en Internet que expliquen a detalle como sirve y que esperar de el (lo cual me tenia un poco exeptico) después de varios días de buscar información en varios lugares del Internet me decidí comprarlo. El producto es increíble y funciona exepcionalmente.lo compre para un viaje de 1 semana al Perú, llego más rápido de lo esperado, y gracias a eso pude hacer mis propias pruebas con el y sacar mis propias conclusiones antes de mi viaje.1- la tapa usb (el modelo de tubo) no se apaga como lo dice en el manual. Esta trabaja todo el tiempo pero deja de enfriar cuando llega a los 36f y lentamente cambia a los 46f. Cuando llega a esta temperatura te das cuenta que esta enfriando porque hace un poco más de ruido y el 0 a mano izquierda del display empieza a dar vueltas.2- El thermo hace ruido ( la tapa usb). No es un ruido excesivo pero en mi opinión si es un ruido lo suficientemente alto para no dejarme dormir por las noches. Mi solución fue encontrada por una Blogger que recomendaba dejar el thermo en el baño y cerrar la puerta al dormir.3- comprar baterías extra es muy útil, yo compre 2 de 20 mah y en promedio cada una me da entre 12 a 15 horas

During a nearly two-day testing period, I monitored the temperature range using a logging device set to record every 10 seconds. Here's a breakdown of the results:-Initial and Final Measurements:The first hour and the last 10 minutes of the data were excluded due to the device being moved in and out of the Voyager.-Temperature Range Observed:Minimum Temperature: 6.1 degrees CelsiusMaximum Temperature: 7.7 degrees Celsius-Overall Performance:While the temperature inside the device never dropped as low as 2 degrees Celsius, it also never exceeded 7.7 degrees.This indicates that the device effectively maintained the temperature within the desired 2 to 8 degrees Celsius range throughout the duration of the test.-Conclusion: Despite the temperature not reaching the lower bound of 2 degrees, the device successfully kept the temperature stable between 6.1 and 7.7 degrees Celsius, ensuring it remained well within the specified range.I do have concerns from another UK review, that the Fahrenheit lids average 4.5°, where my Celsius one was closer to 6.9°. this is supported by reviews on the US Amazon website that have charts similar to mine, but show 3 to 5°c degrees Celsius, averaging 4.5°c (when you convert from Fahrenheit). Maybe the UK don't have the same quality control. I've reached out to the manufacturer to see if I can exchange for a Fahrenheit lid.

I like the level of insulation but you need to carefully read the directions. Use either the insulated top with the interior freezer component or the plug-in refrigeration top - not both which don't even fit together in this model. Otherwise this is a very good device.

Wow! This product really works. The product comes in a nice sturdy cardboard box that doubles as a storage container. It includes a freezable gel pack as an alternative to AC and portable battery options. It also includes a carrying case. I haven't used either one of these, though, I should note that the carrying case is very nice. It is made of neoprene and has long, adjustable straps. I really appreciated the bonus, bright yellow door hanger to remind you of your meds.When I received my cooler, I tested it extensively before my 90 day overseas trip. Although it comes with a wall adaptor, I tested it with four 10000mAh portable batteries. Each battery would last an average of 6 - 6.5 hours. Good thing I tested it with batteries because the outlet on my 12 hour flight did not work and with a full flight, there were no other seats I could switch to.I placed a thin refrigerator thermometer in the cooler and recorded the temperature every hour. It took about 12 minutes to reach the desired temperature and remained consistent during my two day experiment. I was really impressed!The cooler fits perfectly into the side pocket of my backpack along with an attached battery. It is TSA approved, but not a single person questioned it. At one location, I stayed at an Airbnb where the refrigerator had not been turned on yet. A few hours after turning it on, I noticed it wasn't up to temp yet. I was worried about my meds so I decided to leave them in the portable cooler in the meantime. I had no idea how long I could run it continuously given how small the motor is, so I emailed the manufacturer the next morning. They responded right away and told me I could run it non-stop for a maximum of 4 days and then it had to be shut off for at least 15 minutes before restarting. I was really impressed with the company's prompt response.I highly recommend a USBC right angle adapter to avoid the charging cable sticking out of the side and possibly getting damaged while traveling.I cannot recommend this product enough! I have taken it on four overseas trips so far. It really works!

Used it during my last extended trip. Ice pack held up great during the initial flight, staying super cold. TSA screening was a breeze once they opened the container and see it was a medical pen & ice pack. Once in hotel kept the USB plugged in for 4 days, worked like a mini fridge with no interruption. Easy to carry in the backpack, lightweit.I would recommend this product.

Extremly good. Keeps cold without A/C attached. Had 12 hours of flight time and cold still. Used A/C while driving and hardly lost cold. 8 hours plugged in. TSA had no issues. But make it available when going thru TSA. The night before I put the container in freezer to get it cold before adding pens and travel. It’s cold when you put the lid on. Wonderful product and more than worth the money.

Works as promised. During my recent airline travel to Lithuania, it was inadvertently checked in baggage, but kept my insulin cold for two days, more than 48 hours No problems with TSA security check in.

Absolutely loved it!! After reading the reviews and needing something to keep our Ozempic and Mounjaro cold, we decided to purchase this for our vacation. The size was okay - smaller than a regular cooler. It fit right in our travel backpack. We have TSA pre-check but even if we didn’t , I think that we would have gone through the security checkpoint fine. The ice pack stayed frozen for the entire duration of our flights (9 hours), and we didn’t need to use the USB charging option. Overall, it was a great purchase and we’re extremely satisfied!

I bought this product to carry my insulin pens on a trip to Europe. The pros: the outside canister is great. It is metal so can't break, large enough to hold the biogel plus 3 Lyumjev and 2 Lantus solostar pens. The biogel really does last a long time (long enough for a flight from San Francisco to Milan with a 2 hour layover). Cons: the cap with the fan and charging cord doesn't really do much. The fan has started up consistently, but without the frozen biogel, it doesn't really cool the container down. Also, the insulin pens get really cold if they are placed right next to the frozen biogel. I wasn't sure if they might freeze, so I wrapped the biogel in one layer of bubble wrap. This reduced the number of pens the container holds from six to five. But since five pens are more than enough for my trip, that wasn't a problem for me. Summary: Overall, I love this product since I have spent years carrying my pens onto planes with frozen water bottles, etc. I've read reviews that said the container is too big, but I found the size to be just right. It fits easily into my small backpack. I guess the peace of mind it brings is it's greatest benefit. It just needs a better fan.

I bought this cooler to keep my injectable osteoporosis medicine cool during a three-week trip to Europe. While the pen does not need to be refrigerated, it must be kept cooler than 80 degrees. Knowing that I would not have access to a refrigerator and would be traveling by airplane, train & car, I needed to be assured that it would stay cool enough in whatever space it was in. It plugs into a USB port or car lighter and keeps the medicine at a cool temperature. The first several days we were there the temperature was in the 90s and air conditioning was not always guaranteed so I was happy to know that I would not lose my medicine due to high temperatures. I highly recommend this product for traveling with temperature sensitive medicines!

I was nervous about keeping my medications cool during a 3-day road trip, but this cooler exceeded my expectations. With just one stop to refreeze the gel pack, my meds stayed at the perfect temperature the entire time. It works well plugged into the car too. Highly recommend!

This cooler is still working after 3 monthsI traveling in Europe. Never failed, always charged, and kept diabetic medicine at perfect temperature. I used a booster charger while on trains and airplanes. It has been a life saver!

Flight got cancelled and had already set up the thermos to use the refrigerator cap which was plugged into a power bank. After 24 hrs, the medication was still at the perfect temperature. It drained about the full charge of the power bank but had another power bank ready just in case.

En oca iones he dejado insulina por más de 24 hrs y sigue fría, de hecho creo que funciona mejor que la nevera o refrigerador para conservar el medicamento.Y con la capacidad de solo conectarlo para enfriarlo permite llevar el medicamento a salvó y en buenas condiciones aún con mucho calor.Ojo cuando la he dejado sin conectar es un área sin mucho calor en casa o oficina y mantiene la temperatura abajo de 3grados.

This product is wonderful. During our recent long road trip, we managed to keep insulin cool for 5 days without a freezer. I opted for this variant because it can combine the cooking effect of gel-pack AND the cooling plate. I bought a 27000 mAh power bank to have the USB power and worked very well for us.

So far this has been a great product.

Buying Guide

Whatever your medical needs may be, protecting your medications and keeping them at the right temperature is essential for your health and safety. This guide will highlight the most important factors in choosing the right diabetes medical cooler. First, make sure that the diabetes medical cooler has a temperature range of 36ºF-46ºF. The cooler should also offer proper insulation and durability. It should be able to keep the medications cold for extended periods without losing any cooled air. In addition, look for coolers with advanced technology that protect your medications from hazardous temperature fluctuations. Another critical factor is portability. If you’re frequently on the go, consider a diabetes medical cooler that is lightweight and easy to transport. It’s also important to consider the storage capacity of the medication cooler. Ideally, you want one with enough room to store all of your medications and extra space for additional items if necessary. Don’t forget to look into the type of power the cooler requires. Conveniently, many coolers are powered by USB. Make sure the power source included with the model you choose is compatible with your device. To get the best value, look for a diabetes medical cooler that includes additional accessories, such as a biogel ice pack and storage pockets. Taking these factors into consideration will help you find a diabetes medical cooler that suits all of your needs.

Amazon Reviews

"In 15 minutes, I was able to cool the unit from a reading of 87°f to 36°f using the supplied cable and charger, in a room that was 74°f. I see a lot of complaints that are related to improper use. If you are having problems, read and understand this whole review. This unit does work, and it's limitations are in the instructions, but it may take an engineer to understand the limitations and explain them properly.I am an electrical engineer. And I happen to have very specific knowledge about how this unit operates, and why some people have issues with it. This is a 10 watt rated peltier junction refrigeration device. As long as the fan works, this unit will be functional as the solid state nature of the cooling device should have it last a lifetime. But for it to work for you, you will need to understand how to power this unit. This unit has a short USB C cable, and requires a power supply that can handle 5v at 2 amps to supply the rated power of 10 watts. If you don't use the power supply that came with it, you may have trouble finding USB ports that put out enough power. The standard USB2 port can only put out 1/4th the power this unit is rated to use. If you plug it into a standard USB port, the unit may only provide a tiny amount of cooling, and it may not be enough if it is in a warm location.This unit draws 1.5A of power when it is cooling, and if your power supply can't put that much power out, the cooler may not have enough power to do the job.This is important to understand... This unit can provide a maximum of 50° of cooling. That means if you want it to never get above 47° it must never be stored above 97° with insulin inside... If you put it in the trunk of the car on a 110° day in the Texas sun, the inside of the trunk may get as hot as 150°. at that temperature the coolest your medicine will be is 100°. On a hot dashboard where I have measured temperatures of 170°, you can expect internal temperatures no cooler than 120°. The 50° cooling this unit provides is a real limit, so plan accordingly.This is a reliable device, but power cords are frequently mistreated, so buy extras, and don't buy the cheapest cord you can get. To provide the 2 amps of power, you need a proper thick usb A to C cable that is capable of carrying power, so look for cables labeled "quick charging" to insure they are designed to carry the rated power. If you want a long cable, it must be thicker, so get one rated for 100 watts or more (for best results). The longer the cable, the less cooling you will get, so even though this is a 10 watt device, the reduced voltage drop from a 100 watt cable will provide help you get the maximum cooling.And if you use a power bank, be aware you will be drawing 8 watts when it is cooling, and in a warm location that drain will be continuous. Most power banks are rated at a higher wattage than they actually support, so it is best to assume the power bank will only put out 25% of the claimed power, but it could be as much as 75% from a high quality brand, but most you see on amazon are going to be closer to the 25% range. This unit draws 1.5Amps, that is 1500 miliamps. So to run this unit for 24 hours in a warm location, it wants 1500 miliamp hours of power per hour, so 36,000 mah per day. a 30,000 mah power bank *should* run this for exactly 20 hours, but in my experience you can expect 5 hours from cheap power banks, and perhaps 15 hours for a good power bank rated 30,000mah. The reasons the ratings don't provide real-world results is the batteries are 3.7v rather than 5v, so power is reduced by stepping the voltage up to 5v, and it is further reduced because 95% of the batteries from china do not actually hold the amount of power they claim, so the rating of the power bank will be off by however big the lie was when they sourced their batteries.And finally, this unit turns off cooling at 36° and turns it back on at 46°, so the temperature will cycle across that range. I use two insulin and one liraglutide products. The strorage instructions are long term storage in the 34-45°f range, and storage BELOW 80°f for up to 30 days after first use. I have changed brands several times, these temperature ranges are common to all of the insulin/diabetes injectables I have used. so if you are carrying a 2 week supply, for 2 weeks, then 79°f is a target temperture to stay under (you guys that think you must have insulin be refrigerated all the times are either wrong, or you are using a cheap and unstable form of insulin. The point is I read a lot of reviews of people that claim cooling requirements that may not be actually true. Read the whole label on your injectables, not just the part that says keep refrigerated. Mine say below 80 for up to a month. Most of yours will too. The important thing here is this means that the maximum powered storage temperture for a 2 week supply is 79°f, which with the 50°f cooling capacity means your medications can be kept safe up to around 120°f if fully powered and out of direct sunlight. Direct sunlight will add heat.The biogel will work at higher temperatures, but the hotter the shorter it lasts. If you are packing without power, I would generally trust the ratings of the biogel, as that is a reliable source of cooling. If you travel by plane, be aware that the biogel must be frozen to get past security. If it is melted, you will not be allowed to have it in carry on luggage, and they will make you throw it away. So using the biogel for air travel requires you to have it fully frozen in security, or you will need to pack it in checked luggage. But if your luggage is lost, all bets are off as to the condition of your medications, as they might spend a week in a metal box in the sun at an airport, so a reason TO and a reason NOT TO store in checked luggage. Decisions decisions. Buy two coolers and store half of your supply in checked luggage and half in carry on.So to recap:- provide power from a "fast charge" capable power supply- Provide at least 10 watts of power on a good cable- Do not store it at temperatures exceeding 50°f of the desired medicine temperature when powered- Cools quickly when empty, probably needs an hour or so if full (unless you prechill as recommended)- If you are having problems call the number on the door hanger- The warmer it is, the longer this will take to cool down (reality is harsh)- Test your power supply and know your limits- Cars can get really hot, 75°f higher than the temperature outside is easily possible, so this cooler can't do it's job in a hot car for long- The temperature of the display is that of the cooling device, you will see it cycle up and down from 36° to 46°, but the ACTUAL temperature of your meds will be the higher of the temperatures you see it cycling between.I did several tests using the provided charger, and the unit works GREAT. It performs up to the claimed capabilities. It cannot do the impossible... nothing can. I paid $200 for this, I think the value justifies the price. There are plenty of biogel based coolers for 1/8th the price, I still think the value justifies the cost of this unit. I'm an engineer, I could make one of these for under $50, with about $1000 worth of labor. Buying one already made is a good value."

"We were going on an extended trip to various national parks, and I knew we would be staying at places with electrical power but without a refrigerator, which is why I bought one of these. Wasn't sure what to expect, but this unit was a lifesaver! I used the frozen biogel pack while I was traveling by plane. We had several long car trips as we traveled, so I plugged into the car USB port and the temperature stayed good. When we stopped off for sightseeing on the way, I plugged it into my Anker portable battery and the temperature stayed within a safe range as well. At the lodges without refrigerators, I kept it plugged into the wall charger (after 4 days they tell you to turn it off for a short time to let the unit rest, then you can plug it back in). Overall, this worked as advertised and it made traveling much easier! I don't know how I could have kept my meds cool without it. I know this is a bit expensive, but believe me, it's well worth it for what it does. The only thing that I think could be improved is to add an alarm in case the power goes out. We stayed at one cabin where I had it plugged into a wall charger and the power went out during the night. Fortunately, my husband woke up and realized it and called the management office to have them reset the power, otherwise I wouldn't have known until morning. I highly recommend it!"
