AliExpress is stuff straight from China, they're not exactly known for shipping quality stuff (and shipping takes forever!) but I have gotten a fair number of decent things. Generally, it seems like you get what you pay for, and that's not an unreasonable price for a peltier cooler, so it might be worth a shot. One other trick: Things sold on AliExpress are often also sold on Amazon (at a higher price), so I looked around and found an identical-looking product here with a much better description and plenty of reviews.
That specific fridge looks like a Peltier cooler--basically, instead of a traditional fridge, it passes electricity over a special piece of metal, which makes one side cool and the other side hot. They're often limited by the ambient temperature, so if it's warmer outside then it won't be able to get the internal temperature as low. Several of the Amazon reviews for this specific one complain that the temperature inside doesn't get low enough, it can be more like 55F in spots instead of 45F.
My usual technique is to just pack a standard cooler bag with plenty of ice packs (I even get the ice packs free with the pulmozyme shipments) and rely on hotel fridges and such to re-freeze them. I take it your itinerary wouldn't make this a good option for you?
Be sure to let us know how it works if you decide to go for it!
I take 4 medications 4 times a day to try to halt my vision loss. None of them require any refrigeration. However, I have been having a very difficult time "dosing" my meds. I take 38 pills a day for various reasons (I have Behcet's disease, as well as depression and migraines) and so opening up a bunch of different pill bottles daily is a hassle. It's generally easier to put them in a med organizer. I've gotten better at doing this, but I don't always get it right. The last time I screwed up I overdosed myself and ended up having a pretty serious seizure. After that I asked my doc about getting me a home health nurse to come dose my meds weekly so there are no issues. She told me no, and my pharmacy doesn't do dosing. So now I'm back to square one. Meds while blind are super frustrating. I kind of took being able to do these kinds of things for granted when I was fully sighted!
Would something like THIS be an option when travelling?
