LOL - yeah, didn't occur to me that somebody might not know what that is.
One other tech point:
When I got my (small) hard sided cooler, I did some tests with my min-max thermometer, and found that
by itself (i.e. without ice/etc) a cooler does
not have as big a benefit as most folks (including me) tend to assume. I recorded all that in a (dead-tree) notebook, and will try to find it.
It's better than nothing, but it's best to measure & make sure, before trusting it for anything heat sensitive (i.e. chocolate, meds).
You should still pay close attention to where you're storing it (e.g. out of direct sunlight).
I did
not measure the length of times at the min-max temp, and hope to some day buy one of the gadgets that log that, and do much more stress testing.
I like Numbers.
As a long-time
thermos cooking fan, I still applaud your purchase, and hope you post pics and/or
tales of your Experiments!
There have been some great threads here, and there's an excellent thread over at Gary's forum that includes some intriguing recipes by much-more-expert-than-I member "
fantym1" (she's in both forums):

Yesterday, I picked up some split peas to try her recipe for "
Split Pea Soup" which feels like a good one to stress test your mega-thermos:

If you're new to thermos cooking, I highly recommend starting with easy stuff, like
precooked/minute rice.
Have fun!
