    Looks promising more as a campers tent AC maybe. But when riding i see this product delivering more BTU exchange.

    Default Depends....

    Does look interesting and will some day be common place. I still manage well with clothing available and really don't want more gear to get tangled up in...Guess I'm a minimalist...

    Default My Cooling Unit

    Small dual 12v fan, a real screamer. Puts out about the same amount of air as the vacuum cleaners in the store when reversed and magically holding up a beach ball. I point it at my upper chest/chin, can unzip my jacket a bit and raise my modular helmet and catch a nice breeze, I turn it on when in stop & go traffic, otherwise don't need it.

    What if you were to hang a small container of ice in front of it?
    Would it help to cool things down, or would it just make a mess?

    By the time I need it I am already starting to perspire so the air movement is usually enough, at least here in the Mid-Atlantic area. Someplace else like Arizona might be another matter though.

    If it actually comes to market, this would be a great option. No water or ice to refill.

    Wet Cooling Vest and wet soaker Frog Tog neck band are normal riding gear for the rest of the summer here in Tucson. These actually work quite well. Usually last about two hours between saok downs and need to be worn under a mesh jacket. Was 103* degrees here yesterday and temps will reach 115*-120* before the Summer is over.
