Food & Water Storage

When the power goes out, perishable food spoils quickly. Stock up on:
※Non-perishables: Canned goods, granola bars, and dried fruit.
※Water: At least 1 gallon per person per day for 3+ days.
※Cooler Backup: A high-capacity portable fridge like Setpower’s RF20 keeps food and medicine cold for up to 50 hours without power—perfect for extended outages.

Staying Cool Without Electricity

Extreme heat after a storm can be dangerous. Stay comfortable with:
※Battery-Powered Fans: The SmartEle portable fan provides cooling airflow even during outages, thanks to its rechargeable battery.
※Cooling Towels: Soak in water for instant relief.
※Ventilation: Open windows at night if safe, and close them during the day.

Post-Storm Safety

⚠️ Avoid floodwater (it may be contaminated or electrically charged).
⚠️ Check for gas leaks before using generators or stoves.
⚠️ Use flashlights instead of candles to prevent fires.

Great support

Great Product

I have bought 6 of the Set power friges. This one fit perfect in the back of our cherokee sport. We live @ 40mi to the closest large grocery store. These work great to get cold items home. I like them so much I just bought another today. That makes 7 total.
We have problems with delivery where we are. Non of which was because of Set Power. But, when you contact them they get back by next day with any information the can find. Great company, great product.

Nice cooler

Broken latch

Had a broken latch ordered and it came in fast and fit perfect

great for medication

It gets a 4 star due to the strap not clipping in. We use this refrigerator for storing a temperature control medication that needs to be between 2 to 8 degrees Celsius. We bought a thermometer to keep track of the temperature inside and it works great to keep the medication between that temperature needed. We also added some things to keep the medication away from the floor and walls and keep it kind of in the center. The only odd thing about the refrigerator is that the strap does not clip to the part that the instructions tell us to clip it to. It is impossible to clip it because the hole to clip it in is super thin and it only fits the strap not the clip. Other than that, it works great. We have travel with it to pick up the medication and stays consistent. We just make sure we do not turn the car off while transporting the medication, so it does not turn the machine off. Also, make sure that when you have it in the car the refrigerator has a lower power setting. We learned that while we were driving, it was shutting off due to the amount of power it was taking from the car. Once we lowered the bars in the refrigerator it stopped doing it.

No basket

I saw the ads showing the basket included. Setpower said it was a promotion and aren’t even available to but separately. I think they should have included it on all DT45

We apologize for the confusion regarding the basket. We understand your disappointment, and we want to clarify that the basket is currently being upgraded. It will be available for purchase soon, and we appreciate your patience as we work to make it available for all our customers. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we hope to have the basket in stock for you in the near future!

New ice chest

While trying to order this unit, I was a bit confusing for me? I know it was electric but for me the confusing part was understanding that I needed to add a battery power pack.
As for the PT45 it worked flawless over my 10 day elk hunting trip. I did recharge the battery three times over the 10 days, the temperatures were high 50's to 30's. One thing this unit needs is a way to organize all the power chords. It has several cords One for the battery, two for the PT45, one 12v and one 120v. In the end we cut and wrapped my elk and used the PT45 to flash freeze my meat. We love the unit and probably need to buy a second battery .

Setpower PT45

Nice portable fridge. Used recently to cover period while I was waiting for replacement main fridge. Kept a few food items and meds cool. System sips power (AC and DC-Power Station) and is pretty quiet in operation. I did find that the temp readouts are not very accurate when compared to calibrated standards but not off so much as to be a major problem. All-in-all great value for the price.
