PowerPac Bar Fridges with Lock — PPBF555 vs PPF105
Updated June 2026 · 9 min read · Singapore's trusted home appliance brand
Not every fridge need is a full kitchen upgrade. Sometimes you just need a small, lockable, dedicated fridge for a bedroom, home office, study room, workshop, or entertainment corner — somewhere a large 2-door fridge would be overkill. PowerPac makes exactly two models built for this purpose: the compact 50L PPBF555 and the larger 105L PPF105. This guide compares both in detail so you can choose the right size and use case.

🔒 Who needs a lockable bar fridge?
A lock on a fridge sounds like a small feature until you actually need it. Here's where it genuinely matters in Singapore homes and workplaces:
PowerPac Bar Fridge 50L with Lock — PPBF555
Model: PPBF555 · 50L capacity
PowerPac PPBF555 — Compact, Secure, Stylish
The smallest and most affordable fridge in PowerPac's range, the PPBF555 is built for exactly one job: secure, compact cold storage somewhere a full-size fridge doesn't belong. At just 44cm wide and 48cm tall, it tucks under a desk, beside a bed, or into a corner of a home office without dominating the space. The temperature range runs from a mild 12.2°C down to a chilled 0.1°C across 7 settings, plus a small ice box that maintains -3°C or below — enough for ice cubes, though not recommended for ice cream storage.
- 🔒 Lock available on Black variant — secure access
- 📏 Ultra-compact 44×47×48cm — fits almost anywhere
- 🌡️ 7-level temperature control — fine-tune from 12.2°C to 0.1°C
- 🦠 Anti-bacterial interior, low-noise operation
- 🦵 Adjustable legs for height and levelling
- 🎨 Available in Silver or Black
- ⚠️ Not recommended for ice cream storage — small ice box only
PowerPac Bar Fridge 105L with Lock — PPF105
Model: PPF105 · 105L capacity
PowerPac PPF105 — Versatile Mid-Size with Genuine Freezer
Stepping up from the PPBF555, the PPF105 doubles the capacity and adds something the smaller model lacks: a genuine 10L freezer compartment capable of holding ice cubes and a few tubs of ice cream — not just an ice box. This makes it suitable for a wider range of uses, from a proper secondary fridge in a study or living room to a small commercial fridge in a workshop or retail counter. With 95L of fridge space, there's enough room for a real stock of drinks, snacks, and chilled items alongside the freezer.
- 🧊 Genuine 10L freezer — holds ice cubes and a few tubs of ice cream
- 🔒 Lock for secure, private access
- 📦 95L fridge compartment — real everyday storage capacity
- 🦠 Anti-bacterial interior with super micro-hole foaming insulation
- ⚡ Energy-efficient compressor — Class A EU energy rating
- 🎨 Available in Silver or Black
- 🛡️ 10-year compressor warranty, 2-year parts warranty
🎯 How to choose between the two
Choose the PPBF555 (50L) if...
You need the smallest possible footprint, you're mainly storing drinks and snacks (not ice cream), budget is the priority, or the fridge is going into a genuinely tight space like under a desk or beside a bed.
Choose the PPF105 (105L) if...
You want real freezer capability for ice cubes or ice cream, you need more everyday fridge capacity (95L vs effectively none in the PPBF555 beyond the small ice box), or the fridge will serve double duty as both a drinks fridge and a light secondary kitchen fridge.
Both models if...
You're using your Climate Voucher and want to outfit two different rooms — for example, a PPBF555 in the bedroom and a PPF105 in the home office or study room.

❓ Frequently asked questions
Can I store ice cream in the PPBF555?
It's not recommended. The PPBF555 has only a small ice box (28×16×11cm) designed for ice cubes, not a true freezer compartment, so it can't reliably maintain the consistent low temperature ice cream needs. If you want to store ice cream, the PPF105 with its dedicated 10L freezer compartment is the better choice.
Does the lock come on both Silver and Black colours?
The lock feature is specifically associated with the Black variant in PowerPac's listings for both models. If the lock is essential for your use case, select the Black colour option at checkout to ensure it's included.
How much electricity do these bar fridges use?
Both models are energy-efficient: the PPBF555 runs at 70W and the PPF105 at 60W — both significantly lower than a full-size refrigerator. Running continuously, this translates into a relatively low addition to your monthly electricity bill, especially compared to running a larger fridge for the same secondary storage purpose.
Can I use my NEA Climate Voucher on these bar fridges?
Yes — both the PPBF555 and PPF105 are Climate Voucher eligible. Select the "Pay with Climate Voucher" option on the product page, and any remaining balance after the voucher deduction can be paid via PayNow. Note that Climate Voucher purchases are non-refundable, so confirm your colour and model choice before checkout.
Is there an auto-defrost function?
No — neither model has auto-defrost. This is standard for compact bar fridges in this category and helps keep energy consumption low. Occasional manual defrosting of the ice box or freezer compartment will be needed over time.
What if the fridge door doesn't close evenly?
If the door is misaligned, open the cover on the top hinge, loosen the screws slightly, and adjust the door position before retightening. Both models also have adjustable legs — turn clockwise to raise, anti-clockwise to lower — which can help correct minor levelling issues that affect door alignment.
What does the 10-year compressor warranty cover?
The compressor — the core cooling component — is covered against defects in materials and workmanship for 10 years from purchase. Other parts and components carry a separate 2-year warranty. Warranty claims are handled by PowerPac's local Singapore service team.
