Yeah Mick, seems to be the norm ... I've tested my 47L ARB numerous time with a separate thermometer and tried various positions in the cabinet and pretty much reads 4degC lower than the actual cabinet temperature ... so I just set it 4degC lower than what I want ... -1 gets me 3degC.
Our old Engel doesn't even have a digital gauge, so I just run it on 1 (out of 5) all the time. Must buy a proper gauge for it.
Or convert to thermostat controlled....best thing I did to my 32L. Set temp and forget no need to adjust the dial between hottest part of the day and the cool night.Quote:

Ticked all the right boxes.

Others tapped into the control circuit but that was too complicated for me although I think other have to do it when some thing has fail...mine was still functioning so I just use the +pos coming in...set temp and it hovers 1-2 degrees either side, best thing is it doesn't destroy the salad stuff.
Welcome to have a look....I will take some pics when I get home.
Thanks.
I just have mine fixed on 1 with a piece of tape and it is always cold. I had a thermometer on it for a while, but it broke.
