- I heard on the radio this morning that July 2023 was recorded as the hottest month on record. Some places reaching over 115F for days on end. I know this is an off grid channel, but I felt this product was worth reviewing. I didn't have much hope, but it worked surprising well!

Wow okay thank you for this sir, I'm ordering it now
Hope you enjoy it!
Several of the roofers use this exact model around here. They keep dozens of the ice bags in the truck12 volt freezer. The ground man tosses the bags up to the roofing crew as needed. Then the roofers change the ice bags for each other as needed. They also wear big umbrella hats. They say it's a game changer. They work longer, faster and make more money. And on some days, they work in heat that would keep them off the job if they didn't have these vest. They say the vest are too short at the waste and to narrow at the top of the shoulders.
Thanks for sharing! The vest is "one size fits most". Great example of real world use.
I just got mine in the mail today and let me say WOW! I am very impressed! I just put a frozen bottle of water in the water pouch and it worked great! I Will be using it for hiking. I hope this thing has some longevity because it is awesome! I have to say though, it is kind of small. If you are over 200 this might not be for you.
It definitely is a "one size fits most". I'm glad it works well for you!
keep thinking of something a bit higher tech where a pump and resvoir is in a backpack and you wear various garment options that connect viat tubes and quick disconnect connectors then an ecu monitors your regions presets and sends coolant where its specified to. I envision a helmet as one module then a vest and perhaps shorts for the lower regions. Perhaps a gallon of super chilled (some of it frozen even?) coolant might last a few hours set a ultra comfortable or else even much longer if it is only helping keep cool enough to survive a "mission" (which lol could be a desert hike or a bike or motorcycle ride etc) I am so disappointed there are not a bunch of such systems available by now! Heat can absolutely make doing loads of activities not even worth doing! Maybe automotive AC is an example of how long it takes for something to catch on. When I was a kid ONLY seriously expensive trim level cars had A/C so even in hot places that average car buyer went without....fast forward several decades and now virtually EVERY car and truck have A/C...as well as power windows etc which also were an expensive luxury for soooo long! Point being I HOPE we are about to see an explosion of personal cooling systems becoming both highly functional and reasonably priced....and not just chilled water either!
Thank you for the comment!
That vest really cooled you down, judging from the thermal camera. I'm assuming it's not something you wear continually but put on for a while, then take off? Will it cool down fast if it's left outside or in a vehicle? Definitely a plus for those working outdoors.
It does cool down quickly. I think it would be perfect for if you're really hot and need to cool down fast. I'm guessing the ice will melt in about an hour. Thanks for the comment.
Wonder how long it will run on that charger and if it will stay cool the whole time. Thanks for sharing 🤙🏾
I really believe it's for a quick cool off. The vest probably only stays cool for about an hour. Thanks for the comment.
I get about 1 hour from each ice pack I keep a bunch ready, (I made several extra with a "seal-a-meal) and my power pack lasts about 6-7 hours
You put a link flr the thermal camera but i dont see one for the bigger usb batter pack
You can use any small portable phone charging battery bank found on Amazon. It just needs a USB-A port. This is the standard USB port.
I love that the manual is in Mandarin. 😅
That’s great! My daughter, who would be wearing this as a gift, speaks and reads Mandarin. 😃
Well damn was looking forward to picking this up for only 80 bucks but the shipping from china is 514 dollars for the slowest option. Tractor supply has a similar item for only 400 bucks and its english with a battery pack
Shipping is $514!? I didn't know that. Thanks for the info.
WOW, This is AMAZING...Peace
Someone should invent solar powered sombreros
Or a solar powered umbrella!
17 oz. water in vest,, and ice bags only to line,, if overfilled you have to use a straw to empty some out
Thanks for the info and the comment.
How many hours does this thing work during the day with full charge?
I use it while I mow in the summer and it lasts around 2 hours no problem. I would say the ice pack lasts 4 hours and the battery 8 hours.
Can we know what size is that jacket that you ordered
I believe it is a "one size fits most" deal. It has straps the tighten the jacket to the body.
@@OffGridBasement thanks for the information.
do you think the white powder is Sodium polyacrylate? can it be reused?
Do you have a direct link? The one provided just shows a lot of cabin filters for cars and since there is no option to select English I have no idea how to search or navigate it to find it.
Here ya go!

Hope that helps.
It’s straight from China
Vest: clearly in Japanese
Yes it is.
Keep drinking the kool aid champ!
it should be a lighter color
That's a good point. Thanks for the comment.
vegas 120 heat would last 10 min and u have to throw it away.... unless u pulling a freezer behind u.
Haha! Thanks for the comment and the info.
This is really cool. The only problem with your construction worker example .....is that most construction workers I know don't work around a freezer 😂. And even if they did, they would probably have to swap the ice pack every 20 mins when it's really hot outside lol. This is really cool, and useful in certain situations (such as mowing your lawn in extreme heat). But for construction workers, they might be better off with a cooling towel and a portable waist fan over something like this lol. Like I said though, there are definitely situations where this would come in handy. Like at a kids baseball game when it's really hot, or at a short festival/fair, or when outside mowing the lawn, etc. But for people working outside 8 hrs a day and not anywhere near a freezer all day, should probably find something different lol.
You're right. Construction worker was probably the worst example! Being outside for an hour at a time would make a lot more sense in this situation. :-) Thanks for the comment!
Lol hepa
A 9 minute video of you stammering around. Make it a 3 minute video next time.
I was just in shock at how well it worked. Thanks for the comment.
