The inside compartment 5 1/2 ft. high x 5 ft. wide x 7 ft. long.. He put a rail with rollers in the interior ceiling to hang quarters or halves from. It has a temperature control too.
He would haul it in the back of his truck and either used a small generator or an inverter to plug it in. It takes minutes to cool off when plugged in. This unit will hold up to 4 animals, depending on their size. Great if you are going into hunting camp for a week or two in the warmer part of the fall. Good to keep your perishables and beverages cool in camp too.

It also works great as a place to hang your meat to cure in a controlled temperature.

this give me a idea to build a collapsible cooler( snap lock into place , with a good sealed on the edges i just need a cooling unit , i have the generator
