Sometimes I just keep mine outside in the garage but it gets too warm in the summer.
If you’ve got a decent cool spot at home that’s just as good.

They’re such fickle things - I’ve had perfectly decent rag die on me with two hours of fishing on a muggy night, when I forgot to take a cool bag.

I think the fridge effect is because they get damp and bite each other and then die off quicker?
Unless you’re using seawater I think keeping them dry and as separate as possible is probably more crucial for longer spells?
