THE FRONT BOOT GETTING COLDER Aussie Traveller has produced a fridge, the XCD, that managing director Michael Freney says ‘bridges the gap’ between two-way and three- way RV refrigerators. “There’s long been a divide in the market between compressor and three- way fridges, with each type sacrificing and compromising in some way,” he said. “Usually three-way fridges fair really well but are sometimes let down on just how cool they get the milk and beer. We wanted to create a solution that offered customers the best of both worlds.” The XCD comes in 90L and 180L capacities, each running on either 12V, 240V or gas, and capable of achieving temperatures between 2 and 3ºC, and the freezers -15 to -18ºC. With a latch to prevent opening while travelling, the ability to select the hinge on either the left side or the right, Aussie Traveller says its XCD fridge is designed to suit a range of weather conditions and replace most existing three-way fridges in RVs.

Constructed from “high- quality steel, the Milenco Hitch Lock functions as an excellent anti-theft device. It has been performance-tested and can withstand damage from drills and cutters”. A patent is pending on the Milenco Hitch Lock’s unique chain locking function, which separates it from other hitch locks in the market – “this clever feature ensures that the RV cannot be stolen using the breakaway chains”. The Milenco Hitch Lock is easy to install to the hitch of an RV, taking only a few seconds to fit and secure. Simply pass the breakaway chain through the lock and then secure.
