RATED TO 43°C AMBIENT

Holds temperature in ambients up to 43°C, so it keeps working through an Australian summer.

35L CHEST, 380MM TALL

Low-profile chest fits under a bunk in a truck or caravan, or in the back of a ute with a hard tonneau cover.

0.5 AH PER HOUR

Secop Danfoss variable speed compressor keeps the average draw low enough for a modest battery bank.

7 YEAR COMPRESSOR WARRANTY

Backed by 7 years on the compressor and 3 years on the fridge, direct from Bushman.

UPGRADEABLE TO 52L, 240V IN THE BOX

Add the Bushman extension kit any time to convert to 42L, 45L or 52L. 240V transformer included.

The Original Bushman 35L is the low-profile chest fridge freezer that has been in Bushman's range for over 25 years. At just 380mm high it fits under a bunk in a truck or caravan, or in the back of a ute with a hard tonneau cover, where a taller fridge simply will not go.

It runs a genuine Secop Danfoss variable-speed compressor drawing between 2A and 4.5A, with an oversized cooling unit for the 35 litre capacity that keeps power draw down even in hot conditions. Power consumption averages around 0.5 amp hours per hour at 4°C fridge set in a 25°C ambient. Set temperature range is -18°C to +10°C.

Cabinet is marine-grade electroplated metal with 4 tie-down brackets included, an HD Anderson lead and a cigarette plug adapter. There is a 240V to 12V mains transformer supplied so the fridge can run off mains power as well as 12V or 24V DC.

The 35L version is fixed capacity. If you want an extendable version that scales up to 42L, 45L or 52L by swapping the lid and adding an extension collar, look at the Bushman SC35-52 instead — same body, same compressor, same footprint, but a taller lid.

Q: Can I use the Original Bushman 35L as a freezer?
A: Yes. The Original Bushman 35L can be used as either a fridge or a freezer.

Q: What size battery and solar do I need?
A: It depends on your setup — solar input, state of charge, other loads on the same battery, ambient temperature and how often the fridge is opened. Bushman's starting point is around a 100Ah AGM or 60Ah lithium battery with 200W of solar, but that assumes a fridge-only circuit in average conditions.

Q: How much power does it use?
A: Approximately 0.5 Ah every hour, measured with the fridge set at 4°C and 25°C ambient.

Q: What are the battery protection settings?
A: Cut-in 10.9V, cut-out 9.6V. Set low so the fridge does not turn off unnecessarily.

Q: How many 375ml cans fit inside?
A: 44 x 375ml cans.

Q: Is there a transit cover included?
A: Yes. The transit cover is included with every Original Bushman 35L.

Q: How do I strap it down?
A: Four heavy duty tie-down brackets, two on each side, let you strap the fridge down anywhere.

Q: If I buy the 35L now, can I add an extension kit later?
A: Yes. The extension kit can be added at any time to convert your 35L to a larger configuration.

Q: Can I run it from 240V power?
A: Yes. Use the supplied 240V to 12V transformer, included with every fridge.
