So far with the 400+ systems that have been installed and running in cars since last year this has not been a problem. We did a lot of preliminary testing that went into the development of our systems and that was when amp draw was 28 amps with our Version 1. The system now operates around 18-20 Amps which is significantly less. Headlights use 30-40 amps, just to put in perspective.

cooling a race car driver in a 140-150 degree car with a 150 watt thermal load take a lot of engineering and power then most realize. Our system is a 24 volt based system with a power converter to step up the voltage from 12 volts to 24 volts in order to get the type of performance race teams need to work in 24 hour races. Designing our cooling system to last in a race car environment took 1000s of hours of engineering and development, trial and error. There is nothing out there that can cool and last like Chillout.
As as an external battery option, we have one. It’s a 24 volt solution since the system is 24 volts and this is the most efficient way to make last the longest. It’s under $300 and comes with a fast charger. Lasts about 3 hours at max amp draw.

the only people concerned. About using a battery pack so far have been spec Miata where they are adding weight anyway and don’t want to lose the 1/8th of a horsepower since weight isn’t an issue anyhow. You may as well have the redundancy, just like having extra fuel pumps etc if you need to meet weight minimums.

this system saves over 20 lbs vs a ice based system. Less weight, no sloshing water/ice effecting cornering, braking and acceleration. No black flags for leaky coolers.
