The Polaris 12V DC Ice Maker brings fresh ice to your camp, no matter how far off the grid you are. Running on pure 12V DC power with no inverter required, it connects directly to your dual battery system, power station, or cigarette lighter socket and starts producing ice within minutes. Choose between small or large ice size, and the machine handles the rest, automatically stopping when the ice basket is full and restarting once you've cleared it out.

With a production rate of 6kg of ice per day, a 1.2L water tank, and a compact footprint that fits neatly in any camp setup, this is the kind of gear that quietly becomes essential on every trip. Cold drinks, eskies topped up, and cocktails on ice, wherever the track takes you.

Up to 6kg per 24 hours under normal operating conditions. Actual output may vary depending on ambient temperature and water temperature.

Can I choose the size of my ice?
Yes. The control panel has a dedicated Small and Large ice size setting so you can choose whatever suits your drinks best.

What happens when the ice basket is full?
The machine automatically stops producing ice when the basket is full. Once you remove ice from the basket, it will restart automatically.

The first cycle typically takes around 15 to 20 minutes depending on ambient temperature and water temperature. Pre-chilling your water can help speed things up.

Can I use it in hot weather?
Yes, but performance may vary in extreme heat. Ensure adequate airflow around the unit for best results.

What refrigerant does it use?
R600a, an efficient and environmentally friendly refrigerant commonly used in modern refrigeration appliances.

How loud is it?
Noise levels tested at approximately 53 dB, which is roughly equivalent to a quiet conversation. Perfectly manageable at camp.
