National Luna fridges and freezers are synonymous with high-end, high quality portable refrigeration. The new Legacy 55 litre single zone fridge or freezer packs a punch and can maintain an incredible -18oC even in ambient temperatures as high as +43oC.
National Luna’s 55 Litre fridge/freezer provides all the benefits of metal construction, large cooling surface, intelligent compressor control and low power low draw with a full 60mm of insulation.
The 60mm thick wall insulation and complete coverage wall and floor cooling plates ensure the lowest possible battery consumption, making this one of the models ideally suited as a permanent portable freezer or extreme duty fridge.
12/24v DC and 240v AC are all built in and the unit will automatically select to run on mains power whenever it is available - but revert to battery power if the mains go off.
All National Luna Legacy Fridges purchased directly from 4x4 Down Under come with a 3 year fridge warranty.
A NEW COMPRESSOR MEANS BETTER EFFICIENCY
Experience an unparalleled performance increase all thanks to the new National Luna Off-Road compressor. The fridge now runs on less energy thanks to the compressor doing all the heavy lifting.
Having been the experts in 12V portable fridges for over 30 years, National Luna’s ingenious design team developed their own compressor. The all-new Legacy models are fitted with this new Off-Road Compressor and have an AC/DC electronic power supply fitted as standard equipment.
The Legacy models will operate from 9.6V to 31.5V DC, as well as AC voltage ranging from 100V to 240V. Automatic switching is standard. After rigorous development and testing, this OEM Off-Road Compressor, designed specifically to handle the rumble and tumble of off-roading, reduces energy consumption and improves overall performance. This compressor comes with an 8-year warranty.
BETTER CONTROLS EQUAL MORE FREEDOM
Smarter construction is one element of National Luna’s superior performance. Smarter compressor control is the other. The National Luna Off-Road Compressor will automatically operate in the high-speed TURBO mode until the temperature set point is reached. Thereafter it will operate in the energy-efficient idle mode, ensuring optimal power consumption. Because different battery types can be discharged to various levels, you have the power to select the depth of discharge of the battery, ie. how low you intend to allow the battery to flatten. All National Luna fridges and freezers incorporate Low/Medium/High battery cut-out protection circuitry.
And finally, when it comes to operating your National Luna fridge or freezer, you are in charge like no other manufacturer. Equipped with an easy-to-read digital thermostat, the programmable intelligent controller allows you to set the exact temperature while simultaneously showing you the current compartment temperature. TURBO mode can also be manually selected.
BETTER DENSITY EQUALS MORE INSULATION
The new National Luna Legacy Fridges and Freezers feature higher density insulation around the compartments to increase the overall insulation value. With the coupled power from their latest and greatest new Off-Road Compressor, working hard to cool the fridge and freezer compartments down more rapidly, the higher density insulation ensures the compartments retain a longer cool period. Yet another way to ensure less energy consumption.
BETTER CONSTRUCTION MEANS MORE CONSISTENCY
Made with a Stainless Steel exterior and aluminium interior, National Luna fridges, and freezers are metal inside and out. The durability benefits are obvious, but it also provides better cooling. Metal cabinets and metal inner liners coupled with a unique manufacturing process allow the latest generation foam to be injected under high pressure resulting in denser, more effective insulation. The result? Maximum interior space with a more compact overall footprint. And while plastic fridges use a separate “refrigeration plate”, National Luna’s inner aluminium metal construction in conjunction with copper cooling piping means less cold spots (we all know that terrible single spot that freezes everything and shouldn’t?). This keeps temperatures stable across the whole of the interior, cuts running time, reduces how long it takes to the fridge to pull the temperature down once new contents are added, and keeps food fresher for longer.
NOW WITH A DIN STYLE 12V POWER CONNECTION, NOT A CIGARETTE LIGHTER PLUG - PLEASE READ!
The National Luna fridges do not come with a standard cigarette-style 12v plug.
Here is why:
The outlets installed in the back of your vehicle are at the end of a wiring loom and are most likely reduced to 18 gauge by the time they reach your outlet. The standard cigarette lighter male plug has a flexible single point contact on one or two sides. All current is now reduced to that single contact point. Imagine drinking a fountain soda through a cocktail straw. How much harder does your fridge have to run to compensate for this? Very inefficient. Not to mention the outlet being keyed on and off by the ignition.
National Luna's power cord is 10 gauge, multi-strand copper. It has a Hella style DIN male plug on it that is wrapped in 360 degrees of copper for contact to the Hella style DIN socket. Full and complete contact at the connection. National Luna also provides the socket for installation in your vehicle, suggesting a dedicated line of similar gauge from your power source. Now you have a sufficient source of power for your fridge to run on, allowing it to run as it should. This reduces overall power consumption and extends your battery life.

This fridge so far is awesome. Every bit as good as what I have heard.
Hi Nicholas! Thanks for the great review! National Luna is a fantastic brand. If you ever need anything else please let us know.
Originally designed to meet World Health Organisation specifications for transporting medicines in harsh African conditions, National Luna fridges are now the preferred choice for safari operators, caterers, mining companies, and 4WDers who need commercial-grade quality and serious performance with low battery consumption in demanding conditions.
TOUGHER, SMARTER, BETTER
Metal construction makes National Luna fridges tougher, and clever design plus intelligent controllers makes them smarter, but what makes them better? The answer is superior performance in the form of a proven ability to refrigerate, or freeze, safely in very hot weather, and to do it with the lowest possible power consumption, reliability, and durability second to none.
National Luna makes a simple guarantee: our fridges maintain genuine freezing capability...even with outside temperatures of 43oC. With National Luna you know the fridge can handle extremes and maintain stable temperatures... and that’s important because your food will last longer and your drinks will stay colder.
Power usage is important too. In the real world battery drain is about how much power a fridge uses over days, not just how many amps it draws in a lab, and tests in real-life conditions prove National Luna fridges stay cool with the lowest possible power consumption.
Where others struggle, National Luna fridges keep on doing the job in the most extreme conditions!
Smarter design makes National Luna fridges better, and three key design features help deliver the best refrigeration performance: Larger cooling plates – the cooling plates on National Luna fridges also form the fridge's inner walls delivering cooling from top to bottom and ensuring consistent temperatures and fast 'pull-down' times.
These key features combine with all the other National Luna design elements and quality components to ensure the compressor can run for the shortest possible time which means low battery consumption and performance reserves for tough demands.
Combining commercial quality and real performance with low battery consumption, National Luna fridge/freezers are right choice for anyone that's serious about buying a portable fridge/freezer. There are many reasons why: Metal construction – all National Luna fridge/freezers are built with external stainless steel walls and aluminium internal walls. The durability benefits over plastic fridges are obvious... but metal walls with integral cooling plates also give National Luna superior cooling, extra internal space, and high efficiency. A galvanised steel chassis forms the 'backbone' of every National Luna fridge and includes keyhole slots for use in conjunction with mushroom-head bolts and optional fixed baseplate for secure mounting without ropes or straps.

The winch is good but had to upgrade the wiring that came with it. The winch hit a peak of 125 amps pulling my 5 mtr side console onto the trailer.
It seemed to do it easy, but the standard wiring was way too hot afterward for my liking.
I use my boat a lot so I wanted to make sure the winch could pull all the power it wants with no issues.
Batteries supplying the winch are 2 x 200-amp hour lithium’s (LifePo4) wired in parallel that give a combined continuous peak amp output of up to 205 amps for 5 mins.
Upgraded all the wiring to 0 AWG ultra-high current marine power cable capable of handling 200amps and changed over to 175 amp rated Anderson plugs.
Housed the solenoid and rocker switch in a waterproof switch box with cable glands for cabling and mounted it to the trailer.
It wasn’t cheap at around $600 for the upgraded cabling, terminal lugs, heat shrink and waterproof housing, but it was well and truly worth it.
Went away fishing and put the boat on and off the trailer everyday for 8 days. At one particularly steep ramp with wind and current playing havoc the winch didn’t miss a beat.
