So we bought the TAW car refrigerator. I downloaded the app and connected to my 2.4 GHz WiFi as indicated in the manual (the device will only connect to a 2.4 GHz WiFi). All good so far. Next, I tried to connect using the auto connect feature, after approx 3-4 minutes, the app reported “thing_activator_add_device_timeout”. So I tried the manual connection. Followed the instructions in the app. Got as far as where the app tells you to connect to the device’s (car fridge) hot spot and provides a name(SmartLife-XXXX). That name never shows up in the list of WiFi/hotspots. It also never “sees” the device using Bluetooth.
It should be noted that this is the second Bodega car fridge I have that will not connect to the app. Same results on both devices.
Nice idea, poorly executed.
Even worse manual. Never explains the “E” codes. For example, to change the temperature display from F to C, you a combination of button press to display “E5” and then using the + & - buttons to switch from one to the other. At no time does the manual explain what the other “E” codes mean.
Now the car fridges themselves work great. The temps are off slightly but not so much as to be a problem.
