coolorheat review & proto type ideas

$119 is high for an experiment
but if it saved me 2 mph on the truck that would pay back in one summer
has any one see this in a store - I would like to see how fast it cools

Wait... never mind

- so much for a Peltier solution - I hate that - reality stinks sometimes

Back to the task at hand

you could use screen or copper braid - quieter than foil
the problem is metal could abrade your seat foam, leather and tubing

The seat foam should insulate the tubes well, so you should just be cooling your butt. Maybe your first try could be just the slits & tubes.
especially if you are using ice water (Brrr)
it might not even need glue (at least short term), then you would be free to rework or redesign without permanently destroying anything, for now.
