In detail: EZA BLIZZ-E F40, 40L built-in Bluetooth compressor fridge
The EZA BLIZZ-E F40 is a 40-litre gross built-in compressor fridge, designed for permanent installation in a van or converted camper, with 31.2 litres of fridge space and 4.2 litres of genuine freezer compartment (able to drop as low as -20°C). It stands out for its remote-mounted LG compressor, connected to the fridge body by a 1.5-metre cable, a design that lets the noisy, heat-generating technical unit be installed away from the cabinet, freeing up storage space in an often tight build.
Control runs through a digital panel with an external LCD display, complemented by Bluetooth connectivity via the dedicated Blizz-E app, letting you monitor and adjust the temperature remotely from a smartphone without opening the cabinet. Running on 12V or 24V DC, with a rated power of 60W, it uses R-600a refrigerant, more environmentally friendly (GWP under 3) than older refrigerants.
At 15 kg and 38 x 53.6 x 54.6 cm, it stays lighter and more compact than the market's higher-end references (Dometic NRX, Thetford T1090), at a noticeably more accessible price. Its 40 dB(A) noise level sits around the segment average, without matching the quietness of premium multi-mode models.
For vanlifers and self-builders after a first built-in fridge on a controlled budget, with the benefit of connected control and a remote compressor that makes the build easier, the EZA BLIZZ-E F40 is a credible alternative to more established brands in the sector.

Comparison
In the built-in 12V van fridge segment, around 40 litres, the EZA BLIZZ-E F40 is naturally compared with the Vitrifrigo C39i, another compact market reference, in searches such as "EZA BLIZZ-E vs Vitrifrigo C39i". Here's how the two compare, based on both manufacturers' public specifications.
| Criterion | EZA BLIZZ-E F40 | Vitrifrigo C39i |
|---|---|---|
| Capacity | 40 L (31.2 L + 4.2 L) | 39 L (incl. 3.6 L freezer) |
| Connectivity | Bluetooth (Blizz-E app) | No |
| Compressor | LG, remote-mounted (1.5 m cable) | Built-in or remote depending on variant |
| Weight | 15 kg | Not disclosed |
| Price observed | ≈€369 | Varies by retailer |
In short, the EZA BLIZZ-E F40 stands out for Bluetooth connectivity and an accessible entry-level price, while the Vitrifrigo C39i relies on the established reputation of a long-standing Italian manufacturer in the sector. Both target built-in, fixed-installation use in a compact van.
Our tester's verdict: Gilles Caron
I had it fitted into a van mid-build, particularly interested in the remote-mounted compressor: being able to place the technical unit 1.5 metres away from the fridge body genuinely helped optimise an otherwise tight storage space. The Blizz-E Bluetooth app works well for checking the temperature remotely without having to open the cabinet, a real everyday convenience. The LG compressor lives up to its reputation for reliability, with a decent temperature drop for a unit this size. The 40 dB noise level is noticeable without being intrusive, a step above the market's more premium references on this specific point. At 40 litres gross, the size stays geared towards solo or two-person use rather than a group, with a genuine separate freezer compartment that actually freezes rather than just chilling. For a more modest budget than the Dometic or Thetford references, with the added benefit of connectivity, it remains a sensible choice for a first build.
Frequently asked questions: EZA BLIZZ-E F40, 40L built-in Bluetooth compressor fridge
The compressor, connected via a 1.5-metre cable, can be installed away from the fridge body, which optimises storage space in an often tight build and reduces noise and heat right next to the cabinet.
No, the digital control panel with external LCD display allows direct settings without a smartphone. The Bluetooth app adds extra convenience for monitoring and adjusting the temperature remotely, but isn't required.
Yes, its separate 4.2-litre freezer compartment drops as low as -20°C, allowing genuine freezing, alongside the 31.2-litre fridge compartment adjustable from 0°C to +8°C.
The EZA BLIZZ-E F40 sits at a notably more accessible price, with a slightly higher noise level (40 dB) and fewer operating modes than premium references, in exchange for a more controlled entry budget and Bluetooth connectivity.
