TRAVOCA Debuts Newest eCooler at Overland Expo SoCal

March 12, 2026

Rigel+ offers upgraded features for vehicle-based adventure

Milwaukee, WI (March 12, 2026) /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ — TRAVOCA, a brand that crafts elegantly rugged gear for overlanders and outdoor enthusiasts, debuts its newest dual-zone electric cooler at Overland Expo SoCal this weekend in Costa Mesa, California. The Rigel+ Dual Zone eCooler builds upon the original Rigel model with upgraded features for endless versatility.

The Rigel+ Dual Zone 12V fridge/freezer offers everything customers love about the Rigel, with newly added features inspired by conversations at previous Overland Expo events. The new model includes a built-in MOLLE panel, perfect for keeping spices, cutlery, or other essentials neatly organized and within reach. An integrated shelf on the opposite side panel folds out to hold your beverage of choice, and removable baskets make packing and unpacking your cooler a breeze. The Rigel+ comes in a new Borage Blue colorway, offering a sleek new look while reliably keeping your goods cold.

“We’re excited to debut our new Rigel+ model, a collaboration between our designers, early adopters, and our growing community of active outdoor influencers,” says Stuart Rudolph, Managing Director, TRAVOCA USA LLC. “Everyone notices the unique DIY-influenced bamboo panels from our original design, and offers suggestions on how to add accessories. From those hints, we added a shelf and a MOLLE panel to the Rigel+, which you can also purchase separately to double-up, or to upgrade the original green Rigel.”

Like the rest of the Rigel eCooler line, the Rigel+ features true dual-zone cooling powered by premium Toshiba technology in the compressor and vacuum-insulated panels that can provide up to 60% longer cooling performance than standard 12V fridge/freezers. The result is dependable temperature control with lower power draw—ideal for remote and vehicle-based use. Rigel eCoolers eliminate the need for ice, so 100% of the space is devoted to keeping food and drinks at the perfect temperature. With a durable steel body, rugged HDPE base, and IPX5 rating, the Rigel+ was built to withstand the rigors of extended outdoor use.
