Coolbox replacement

In this hot summer I had the problem that the refrigerators (50 cents apiece) kept the goods to be chilled (mostly frozen food) not kept frozen for a sufficient amount of time, the so-called tearing off of the cold chain.

So I took a banana box, lined with existing Styrofoam plates (thickness 30 mm) (floor, walls ...) and 2 Styrofoam plates built a lid (inner part inside the box) tailor-made in the box, end cap slightly larger, so he the whole Chose completely covered), these 2 parts tied together with 2 wires and an old perforated plate (reinforcement), so that I also had an opening handle, and this box kept frozen in the car even at 38 ° C Frozen over an hour!
