Review: The DC power cord works fine in my Chevy Traverse. - The DC power cord works fine in my Chevy Traverse. It is made better than the original cord. When I ordered it I did not realize it was coming from Australia. I was pleasantly surprised that it only took two weeks to arrive in Minnesota. Good Job.
Review: Made my 1990 Norcold Tek Come Alive! - What a great find. If you have a classic Norcold Tek powered cooler you need one of these. I found an old Tek Cooler and it had the power cord for 120v but not for 12v. Finding this was an adventure. Made well and fits perfectly to the cooler 12v male socket. Norcold Cooler works like a champ on this 12v plug.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I need a 12v plug for my norcold tek ii, model mrft3600.  already bought a norcold plug, only to find it will not fit the recess.  size of plug in mm?**
A: This plug is 3/4 of an inch by 1/2 inch, approximately 19mm by 13mm.  This plug will fit fridges with the 3 flat prongs, not the fridges with the round prongs.  Also just to double check that you know, most of these fridges have a slider to switch between the 12v and 110v plugs.  Let me know if you need more information and I’ll be happy to assist.

**Q: This looks like the wrong configuration for a norcold mrft 30**
A: It fit my old norcold mrft 3400. It has a small 3 prong plug with rectangular prongs. The prong in the grounding position is turned perpendicular to the 2 next to each other.

**Q: What is the name for this type of 3-prong power plug?**
A: It does not have a name.  It is a design that the freezer manufacturers created and it is only found on Norcold, Engel and a few other brands of freezers.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Made my 1990 Norcold Tek Come Alive!

What a great find. If you have a classic Norcold Tek powered cooler you need one of these. I found an old Tek Cooler and it had the power cord for 120v but not for 12v. Finding this was an adventure.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not a Hella plug
*by K***B on May 29, 2021*

I wanted a Hella plug equipped power cable for my Engel MT45 fridge. I bought this thinking that it was actually a Hella plug with a removable cigar lighter plug adapter (that red thing near the end) added. It IS a Hella plug with an adapter attached, but, unfortunately, the cigar lighter adapter is permanently attached. This unit can only be used in a cigar lighter socket---it cannot be used in a Hella socket. I ended up cutting off the faux-Hella cigar plug end and attaching a spare Hella plug connector that came extra with my Engel fridge/freezer. NOTE: The unit appears to be well-made overall, including the internals of the plug.
