GENIUS COOLER HACK | $22 Bucks
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 лип 2019
- This video follows Jack along as he tests out a theory in a simple version we have seen all over the internet. Its a fairly genius cooler hack for the person who first figured it out. Not everyone wants to or can buy the 300,400,500 dollar high end coolers and also doesn"t need that much cooler production. This video shows an igloo cooler modification Jack did in order to see if he could boost some hours out of a $14 igloo cooler to be able to use it out on the boat or at the beach sufficiently.
Follow along as Jack tests out this theory!!
Materials used:
Igloo cooler

Melting ice and ice water is always 32°F, so no need to take temps until after all ice has melted. Until then the real test is how much ice is left. Otherwise, great test. Thanks!
i learned adding rock salt to the ice will make it last longer..(like an iceberg)... my grand dad was a fisherman and he always salted his ice on the boat to make it last longer and you had to use a hammer to break it up
Maybe the next test is to measure how much water volume over time. Higher volume of water the less it retains ice.
I have the same cooler, I took off the lid and placed it on a flat surface to help the foam travel inside the lid. Second, there's a cap/plug near where you drilled the hole, i used the existing plug hole to stuff the foam.
Yes but that’s missing the point of what the lid is supposed to be used for! Remove the lid, take the plug out, fill the inside of the lid full of water, plug it back up, freeze the lid overnight, and enjoy the extra time your cooler stays colder longer!
The cooler in the middle is insulated by the other two coolers beside it. The air circulating around the outside coolers will melt ice faster.
I couldn't see how you did the silicone gasket. That would be helpful to show.
You put the blue modified one in the middle where it would have two sides protected by the other two coolers. So I would say you should do this a third time with at least a 6 inches of separation. Also dead airspace inside a cooler should have not effect. The dead air in the cooler will be the same temperature as the ice water combo. So the heat flow through the walls should only depend on the R value and the area of the inside of each cooler. They all looked pretty similar in size.
All right on . Try to expand the mind & not the cooler .👀 You're probably 🤔 wondering what's that's about ! Let's go to the beginning . Weight & size matters , right ? Durability just knocked on your door . Right ? Google what's light & strong & keeps things cold .( Homemade ) . Amazing 🤔😁. Excuse My French ,...FUCK YETI !!!
You have to much time on your hands
@@gregstaton128 I have lots of time because I am retired but it is still not enough. So I don't have spare time.
I just folded foil about 4 times and put it directly over the top of ice. Ice lasted much longer.
I am pausing this video at 7:24... my prediction is the blue cooler in the middle will retain the ice longer because it is insulated on two sides by the other two coolers. I will now resume watching the video : )
Edit... I quit watching at 7:45 already know the results...SMH
He put some work, time and money on that modified cooler. It makes sense to give his project that extra added edge. Heck, if I was him, I would have completely surrounded it and stacked one on top. He might have got one additional day of ice with that set up.
@@JERRYR708 lol
Good point!
One large hole was a mistake. You need multiple small holes barely larger than the foam can's spray straw. The foam was shooting right back out of that single entry hole because all the small volume of foam did was compress existing air within the lid. You need not only air escape holes but also holes to allow you to reach every region within the lid. Sorry to say but that alone invalidates any further comparisons and testing using that cooler.
Apparently not, as it was very effective.
Hello ...nice video mate
I have an igloo marine ultra
Am afraid I need to use my drills too...
Let me ask you, why you choose to make the holes inside instead outside....
avoiding microbio.....points?
Keep cooling !!!
To make it look nicer, but you are right, it would be more sanitary with any holes on the outside. Thanks for mentioning it, I'm about to do mine, and will put holes on the outside. :)
You could also use a white silicone on the outside where the holes were to cover up the dried foam. Another video on UA-cam shows the guy letting the foam dry and then peeling it off so it's not sticky.
Wouldnt the foam and silicone be bad for your health even after it cures ?
I waited for the foam to dry before cleaning up. A lot easier to clean. Also use more than one hole to spray the insulation.
I recently pulled two cheap coolers apart both had gaps in the base insulation one was in two pieces with a gap and the other had a two inch square gap for a non existent drain a quick check with a strong light would reveal any gaps,I got a 30% increase in ice retention by fixing the gap and foam filling the lid regards Mike
You're an extremely practical web video; couldn't make it without ya!
Mark Jenkins that’s why we put the videos out!
Pure Awesome
ARTIC WAS A BIG RIP OFF. Glad you saved us $100 bucks. ty
Super helpful. Thank you!
Mmm Lager. From my home state, hope you drank the cold one after the video :)
putting your modified cooler between 2 coolers and another plastic box helps with isolation...
I believe it’s a fail of a test since the unmodded cooler is different then the modded one. They should be the same style for best results. I have seen other videos where they used two identical coolers and foaming the lid made it work worse. The modded cooler in the video also has the bulk of the bottom off the hot ground a little due to its design, which would help, unlike the other coolers.
metal wolf cool
That is the exact same cooler you should really pay attention
that's a great modification
We’re trying to refine It also and shoot another video. But this worked tremendous for 25 bucks basically
I take it the wife won't let you have your guns in the house
That's where you need them!!
He switched that blue cooler cause the foam screwed it up. The microfone issue was alie to make the switch. LoL, before he got started. I love these vids where people use a product they're not experienced with
There was 0 coolers switched, no need to, not trying to prove anything just purely testing what we saw elsewhere online
The blue top should be a place to fill cover with water leave cover in freezer so it becomes a block of ice
I wonder instead of the spray foam if saltwater inside the walls would keep things cooler? Seeing that saltwater has a lower cooling point. Anyone tried this as an alternative? Thanks for the info.
How about with anti Freeze ?
Do the red one too!
Russell E Simonetta maybe we will! Not a bad idea
That lid on the red cooler is modified. You can see the drilled hole in it and bumps on the top where the foam is bulging because of the indents on the underside.
We literally modified It in the video?
@@DIYHunter I rewatched the video to make sure I didn't misinterpret anything. My original comment remains valid. You said the red cooler would remain unmodified but in the video it can be very clearly seen to be modified. The drilled hole and the warping on the lid matches the blue cooler in every way.
Physics tells you that insulating the bottom of the cooler will be more efficient than the top. Do both top and bottom for greatest bang for buck.
Oct 1 is bow opener here in Southeast IN
So why does red coolers top have the same drilled hole that the blue one does.
Uh oh. Someones got some explaining to do! Lol.
Good eye. :)
He drilled them both at the same time, because eventually he would insulate the other one after the content. Lol hopefully Im not being technical lol.
Wish you had told us the temperature reading of each cooler instead of saying "pretty good"! What does that mean? :/
If there is still ice in the water, the water temperature will always be 32 degrees F at sea level.
@@davidwade8194 And not below 32°?
@@driversteve9345 No. That is actually how thermometers are tested. Regular unsalted water that has ice in it will always be 32 degrees F at sea level. Below that temperature, it will freeze. I remember that from high school chemistry, but, I also used to work for Taylor Precision Products, a thermometer manufacturer.
For anyone out there, I've tried this hack and it does NOT work at all. Buy a decent Ozark cooler. 95% Yeti performance at half the price.
How is that worth the investment?? To have a few more ice cubes?? So you wasted more money, and time for very little results.... when you should just get a yeti, or one comparable to a yeti. Insulating the top, and adding a seal is not near as important as having a cooler with quality insulation inside all of the walls! Because that’s where insulation is most important. There, I just saved all of these UA-cam cooler hack channels a bunch of time, money and effort! Not only that, but doesn’t anybody look to see if somebody else has made the same video before they waste their time? Because there are quite a few videos out there exactly like this and all of them have held the same results, but the ones that compare there “improvements” to a yeti, no matter what improvements they make to cheaper coolers, it doesn’t come close to a yeti, Because cheaper coolers are cheap for a reason! And yes I know a yeti is more expensive, but you’re going to have these coolers for a good amount of time so the money you waste on ice (and possibly ruined food) for these cheaper coolers, you could’ve bought a yeti!
Silent Storm these coolers were $15 we own yetis and we use these for fish storage and beach usage to not gunk up and ruin our yetis. They’ll hold ice in the sun well over a full day on a boat or beach for $15 bucks can’t beat it
Nice try Yeti salesman. There are plenty of videos of $100 Walmart coolers doing better than a Yeti cooler.
People only buy Yeti now because they want others to know they spent $300+ on a silly cooler. Just like kids
buying $3-400 Yeezys shoes to showoff on Instagram. The rest of the cooler market now sells the same "high
performance"coolers for a fraction of the price as it should be for a piece of molded plastic.
Jay Butterfield lmao that yeti salesman was funny as hell. I read my post again when you replied and as bill burr said “I was kinda be a dick back there” wow I must have been pissed about something that day. Yikes. Lmao. You live and you learn I guess. But funny as hell to see it again. Thanks for the laugh and the lesson lol. I’m still not a fan of the upgrades, and a yeti was just an example, but the way I said it was definitely wrong. Lmao.
@@SilentStorm_5 You got to sell those Yetis somehow ;) But for real though I was about to just bite the bullet and get a medium size Yeti and then I started researching which is why I even came across this video here. I was just doing what most other people do and buy what I see everybody buying and talking about. I've always just used whatever $30 cooler that was available and never had issues. Then I wanted to get my girlfriend a fancy color one for the beach and after days of watching reviews online I realized it just wasn't worth paying 3x the amount for what MIGHT be possibly a day more of unmelted ice. Went to Wallyworld and got a "Lifetime" brand blue colored 55 qt cooler and it really just seems like the same as a Yeti but 1/3 the price. All the same features and watching UA-cam reviews it did equal to the Yeti. Thumbs up to you for not getting defensive when I joked.
Silent storm showed alott of integrity. Alott of people wouldn’t have reflected on something they may have said and admitted their faults, Especially not online. That was pretty cool. All of this info is helpful.
Ive seen other videos way much better than this, his work was a mess & sloppy, not showing the rests of the clip & suddenly its done?
Silicone casket, where’s the how to?
