Air-Conditioning Collars

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The CoolWare Personal Cooling System is Perfect for Summer Runners

— April 16, 2011 — Lifestyle
Although we're still waiting with bated breath for those hot summer days to roll around, be assured that they will, so you will probably want to prepare yourself with the CoolWare Personal Cooling System. This portable air-conditioning device might be good for just about anyone, but I see it coming in handy for outdoor runners. It offers a great way to avoid heat and sun strokes. It may even extend your running time.

The CoolWare Personal Cooling System is basically a collar for your neck that looks like a futuristic phone accessory or music gadget. The inner part is made of anodized aluminum, which when combined with a built-in two-speed fan and a small reservoir that holds 2 oz. of water, cools you down significantly.

The CoolWare Personal Cooling System is priced at $49.99.
