August Treats – Online Shopping
by admin on Aug.01, 2011, under Favorites
August can seem a very long month, and not just because of its 31 days! It is also two to three months into warm weather season – which for most has been hotter than normal this year and on some days, it’s very uncomfortable to move about for almost anything.

Not something you needed, but something you just wanted and probably deserved. Each item less than $10 – now that’s a treat!

Here are a few new ideas…
Beat the Heat!
by admin on Jul.19, 2011, under Favorites
Sweltering heat might be the phrase best applied to Summer 2011. It’s mid-July now and many areas have already spent a month or more in normal July-August temperatures. I’m not looking forward to the next month+ of heat so it’s time to seek relief.
Here are a few of the latest outdoor cooling products including fans, collars, and hats – and a link to a photo of my neighbor enjoying the misting fan I bought for him! I’m not sure how either of us got along without it!
The Hoseless Evaporative Cooling Fan makes a patio or deck as comfortable as an air-conditioned room without being tethered to a garden hose. Encountered in luxury resorts and outdoor cafes, the fan reduces the air temperature by as much as 30\u00BA F by gently misting the surrounding area.
Six patented nozzles create micro-fine droplets that feel dry to the touch and evaporate almost instantly, providing refreshing cooling without the soaking spray common with lesser misting fans. An eight-gallon reservoir holds enough water for up to eight hours of continuous misting; the density of mist adjusts with a simple turn of a dial. The 30″ fan’s high-velocity three-speed motor is waterproof and can oscillate 50\u00BA, cooling up to a 1000′ sq. area. Because flying insects typically avoid wind and moisture, the fan also helps reduce these outdoor nuisances.
Here’s a smaller version of the one above:
The Evaporative Misting Fan emits evaporative mist to cool ambient air temperature by as much as 30º F. Three patented nozzles create microdroplets of mist that feel dry to the touch and evaporate instantly, creating a fan-driven, cooling mist that won’t dampen surfaces.
The 16″-diameter fan oscillates up to 90º and its blades adjust from 930 to 1,220 RPMs to cool up to 200′ sq. on a deck or patio.
Here’s a handy little item:
This Personal Cooling Collar produces a cooling breeze across the neck. The collar holds 4 oz. of water and its internal fan generates evaporative cooling across the back of the neck and base of the head. The interior of the collar is lined with aluminum that conducts a cooling sensation onto the back and sides of the neck.
The collar weighs less than 1 lb. and its two spring-loaded hinges allow it to rest gently yet securely against the neck, ensuring comfort and stability. It has two adjustable fan speeds that produce a soothing whirring sound and it is powered by the included AA battery that provides up to four hours of cooling.
And imagine the relief this could bring on a hot day standing out on a ball field…this cap could keep a lot of people from passing out or feeling sick in the summer heat. I’ve spent many an afternoon playing shortstop – never out of the sun, and could have used one of these caps. Wouldn’t hurt for those who sit in the stands either!
The patented fibers in this Evaporative Cooling Cap use evaporation to draw heat away in warm weather, keeping your head up to 30º cooler than outside air temperature. The hat is charged by running it under cool water, then wringing out the excess.
The cap has hydrophilic and hydrophobic fibers in a three-layer fabric that conducts body heat upwards, while retaining the cool water and releasing it slowly through evaporation. Even while the middle layer holds onto water, your head remains cool and dry thanks to an inner lining that water can’t permeate. Worn dry, it also provides effective insulation during cooler weather, trapping heat at a level far greater than non-insulated hats.
Be safe and stay cool…
