SunStar DC Chest Freezer, Final Touches

The Euro / DIN style DC power plug was spliced to the 10AWG power cable supplied with the freezer. Stuck on some foam blocks to the back and right side of the freezer to space it out from the wall properly. Added a no-tools swing clamp to the rear condenser grill to make future servicing easier.

With the foam blocks removed, was able to squeeze the freezer in through the 32" side door on the garage.

Freezer is made in the USA by:
Solar Freeze, Llc
LaGrange Indiana

It is as "no frills" as you can get, manual defrost, no digital display, no WiFi, just a plain old thermostat dial and a power and fault LED indicator.

Ordered from:

They seemed to have the best price including shipping. They are located in Canada, so you may get hit with a currency conversion fee when ordering, but there was no sales tax added.

I would post a link to the Solar Freeze web site, but they don't have one. This company is old school in every sense.

This project has taken over a year to complete, so videos have been shot at various times over that period.

More to come...
