You can actually get surprisingly small compressors now the last few year. There are a few compressor driven ice coolers available now that are likely worth the effort and price if you need a boost in cooling capacity or battery life over the cheaper peltier equivalents. And they are also used by some people for large bulky cosplay and costume outfits that are otherwise just a super insulated hotbox. Obviously they still have a minimum size limit, but I think many people would be surprised at how small you can get them now.
