Bushman DC85-X 12V 85L Upright Fridge Freezer
The Bushman DC85-X 12V 85L Upright Fridge Freezer is the go-to compact fridge for canopy setups that need maximum storage without taking up unnecessary space. It’s no surprise this is one of Bushman’s top-selling models for 4x4 builds—delivering efficient cooling, smart internal layout, and proven reliability in harsh Australian conditions.
Running on 12V with an average draw of just 1.25 Amp per hour over 24 hours, the DC85-X is built for extended off-grid use without draining your battery system. It features a genuine Secop® Danfoss compressor backed by a 5-year warranty, along with a tropical ‘T’ rating to ensure consistent performance even in extreme heat.
Inside, the Bushman DC85-X 12V 85L upright fridge freezer offers a practical setup with adjustable shelves, a crisper drawer, and a 6L internal freezer. Installation is straightforward with a reversible door, Anderson plug, and included mounting kit—making it an easy fit for ute canopies, caravans, and touring rigs.
If you want a compact fridge that punches above its weight, this is the one.
