Vitrifrigo C47 12 Volt Fridge fitted in the new Hyundai i800 'Motorcaravan of the Year 2011'
Congratulations to Wellhouse Leisure, whose new Hyundai i800 motorhome, has just won Motorcaravan of the Year 2011, at the recent Stratford Motorhome Show. Beating off stiff competition from other leading motorhome manufacturers, including VW and Fiat, the success of the Hyundai was attributed, in no small part, to its innovative, well equipped kitchen, which includes not just the usual sink and hob that you would expect to find on a vehicle of this size, but also an oven and grill. To accommodate the oven, Wellhouse needed to find a lower height fridge than the standard solutions available. Turning to Penguin Refrigeration for help, we suggested two 12 volt fridge options - the Vitrifrigo C47 or BRK35. Looking for maximum volume Wellhouse opted for the larger 47 litre C47, with its easy access pull out drawer and adapted their design to suit.

The Hyundai i800 is fitted with a 90A/H battery providing enough power to run the fridge for 2 to 3 days without charging.
