I have used ones like that Koolatron and they are kind of handy, There is a diabetic in Mississipi who uses one for transporting insulin (I sent her one of my spares) but I have not been all that thrilled with them.
Yes they are far more efficient and the price reflects that. They use an ingenious compressor system with pistons instead of rotary compressors I just installed one in a friends Sprinter.
