Still working on the prototype. I had to fabricate some of the parts. So far the foot print is about 15" x 7". Waiting for one last piece to the puzzle.

Will it go well with business attire? I'm dying here in Texas and thinking I should just wear a system to and fro work.

Is it still too early to share some more info on it ?
It is very hot here inTexas and I'm waiting to see what you have before I bite the bullet and buy another system.

Yep...too early. I have developed a name/logo for the system. But I still need to run the tests. If it does not cool as well as I am anticipating then, all is for not. A couple key pieces are still on their way in. But not far away.

Hang in there.

Chad,
You've probably already thought of this but will there be a thermostat? An issue many racers don't think about is that you can cool your exterior too much. I've actually seen racers putting baggies of ice into their driving suits. This can lead to vaso-constriction actually raising core temps. Much of the work on personal cooling systems was done by the military for work in CBR suits in hot climates. They found optimal cooling was in the 55-62 degree range. You'll still sweat, but cool your core without the risk of the constriction.
Cheers

Have you run any amp to BTU calulations? What kind of BTU movment do you expect? Phisizks is a biotch and I notice that you are looking at a battery powered version along with the 12 volt system. It would take a very large battery to move one humans worth of heat for any extended amount of tiime even with the newer thermocouples.
