Overview
The Smeta T-DSG-100B-US is a 3.5 cubic foot, 3-way propane refrigerator with a small built-in freezer section, running on LPG, 110V, or 12V DC for cabins, campers, and semi-truck use.
The listed capacity is a little muddled between the fridge and freezer figures, but the unit is built around a combined 3.5 cubic foot cabinet with roughly 0.5 cubic feet carved out as a freezer compartment. Like other absorption-style propane fridges, it keeps a small pilot flame burning at the back whenever it's running on gas, which is worth planning around for anything flammable nearby.
- 3.5 cu ft combined capacity with a freezer section
- 3-way power: LPG, 110V, 12V DC
- Reversible door design
- Front control panel for power mode, ignition, and temperature
Who it's for
Suits an off-grid cabin, camper, or truck setup where propane is the primary power source and a small freezer section is acceptable. Less suited to anyone who wants fridge-only space with no freezer at all.
Pros and cons
- Runs on propane, 110V, or 12V for true off-grid use
- Reported low propane consumption around 0.9 lb per day
- Slide-out shelves and a crisper drawer for organizing food
- Gas mode keeps a small pilot flame burning that needs clearance from anything flammable
- No fridge-only version without the freezer section
Performance notes
The absorption system runs on LPG, AC, or DC power with reported gas use of about 0.9 lb per day, and slide-out shelves plus a crisper drawer let owners organize the interior. The control panel handles power mode selection, ignition, and temperature from the front of the unit.
