4ALLFAMILY Voyager Insulin Cooler Case - Dark Blue (XL)

We were going on an extended trip to various national parks, and I knew we would be staying at places with electrical power but without a refrigerator, which is why I bought one of these. Wasn't sure what to expect, but this unit was a lifesaver! I used the frozen biogel pack while I was traveling by plane. We had several long car trips as we traveled, so I plugged into the car USB port and the temperature stayed good. When we stopped off for sightseeing on the way, I plugged it into my Anker portable battery and the temperature stayed within a safe range as well. At the lodges without refrigerators, I kept it plugged into the wall charger (after 4 days they tell you to turn it off for a short time to let the unit rest, then you can plug it back in). Overall, this worked as advertised and it made traveling much easier! I don't know how I could have kept my meds cool without it. I know this is a bit expensive, but believe me, it's well worth it for what it does. The only thing that I think could be improved is to add an alarm in case the power goes out. We stayed at one cabin where I had it plugged into a wall charger and the power went out during the night. Fortunately, my husband woke up and realized it and called the management office to have them reset the power, otherwise I wouldn't have known until morning. I highly recommend it!

Totally skeptical that this would hold up and keep my medicine cold for six weeks of travel, but lo and behold it has. It was a little bulky as we were traveling light, and I did wish it held more medicine, but it tells you exactly how much it can hold. Best is the gel pack because it keeps cold for a long time and you don’t need to worry about power, but the electrical feature is also great. You can also put more insulin bottles in the top portion when you use the gel pack. Keeping humira and insulin cold would have been a huge hurdle for me in Southeast Asia summer heat, but it held up great. It is an investment, but you’ll be able to use it on any future trip or during a power outage with a battery pack. Peace of mind during travel with this!

I was a little skeptic about this before purchasing but I'm sold on it now. I was worried that it would only work a limited time but after I got through the first two days of constant use, I felt much more comfortable that it would work as advertised. We just took it on a 4 week trip out of the country, and it was perfect. There were times when the rooms we stayed in did not have a refrigerator, and this unit kept the drugs at the correct temperature for days at a time, plugged into an outlet. One time this unit ran for 5 days in a row without missing a beat. With the battery pack they sell for it, it was more than ample for our flights and travel time that lasted over 24 hours. We were able to plug it into the airplane seat while flying to help save the battery, but I was not worried about it holding up. I'm able to get 6 glass vials of the medication in this unit. Helpful tip: carry a thermometer with you that you can use to check the room refrigerator temp. We found multiple refrigerators in hotel rooms that would only cool to 50 degrees, not cool enough for the medication we carried. I would highly recommend this cooler.

This device is great and does what it is suppose to do; keeps the medication cold. HOWEVER, it doesn't reliably stay on with various battery packs from popular brands. Like a real fridge, the device cycles on and "off" for cooling. As it cycles on and "off", the power draw changes from 5V - 1.00A to 5V - 0.09A. If you read most battery packs, they specify they need 0.03A - 0.09A to stay on, otherwise auto shut-off happens. Because this is right at the limit, a lot of battery packs shut-off with this cooler when the cooler is in "off" cycle. My easy fix was that by using a voltage meter in-line, it added like 0.02A to the overall draw and now the cooler stays on because the draw overall is 0.11A. The meter I got was like $10 on Amazon.

I thought charger was missing but found it inside the tube. Changed my review stars as is a great product. Thank you

The product certainly works well to keep medication refrigerated enough, but not too much. So it works. What I don't like is the neoprene case that comes with it or the charger to plug in the wall. I've replaced both. The neoprene case is too small be be particularly effective and it doesn't hold a larger battery well. The case that comes with the Nomad Big is far better for this product and it's the one I use for it. It's a better fit and has a larger pocket for the battery. While we were traveling recently, we had to stay on battery for about 15 hours. The larger battery than the one available from 4ALLFamily fit into the Nomad Big pocket just fine, but won't fit into the one that comes with this unit. If I didn't have the Nomad case, I would have bought a water bottle carrying bag/case with pocket for the unit. I'm using the case from this unit for the Nomad Big. (I use the Nomad Big on day hikes.) The charger plug should have a retractable prong set that folds into the cube to make it easier and safer to pack when you're on battery. So, this is a good review, and with some changes by 4ALLFamily it could be a great review.

I take medication that requires refrigeration. I travel a lot, often on a plane for 9 hours, plus additional land travel. This cooler holds my medication at temperature very reliably. Buy two power packs if you are on the road more than 5 hours. As far as portability, the cooler is not overly heavy, but it is somewhat awkward to carry. First, the cooler can slip out of the “pocket” type carrying case. It needs something to keep the cooler in that pocket from falling out. Second, the strap needs a redesign, so that the cooler doesn’t “tip” as it is being worn on the shoulder or across the body. However, the cooler is reliable and does a reliable job. I can fit several vials of medication plus syringes in it. I have a friend I recommended this cooler to, and she fits several injectable pens in hers.

Perfect for airport travel with medication needing to be refrigerated! TSA still has to check, but all the airports were great! The product works well with the freezer pack. The plug in version was a bit more difficult as it requires a large battery pack , which we luckily had.

....ich weiß nicht ob es so gewollt ist, denn der blaue metalldeckel, ist nicht mit dem echten deckel "verbunden" und dreht daher beim zuschrauben durch. Wie auf den Bildern geht er auch sehr leicht ab. ch könnte ihn jetzt entweder ganz weg lassen (wobei hier optik leiden und evtl die funktion, da ich nicht weiß wie es mit abwärme aussieht oder aber mit superkleber als notlösung am schwarzen deckel befestigen, wobei auch hier nicht klar ist ob es die Funktion dann so gegeben ist. Ansonste sieht alles sehr Hochwertig aus und scheint zu funktionieren. Ein test auf Herz und Nieren folgt erst. Mfg!
