System Info

How does the Krazy Kool Technology™ System compare to ice cubes wrapped in a towel?

Ice bags wrapped in a towel is neither very effective nor practical. It requires ice or a freezer on hand. Temperature consistency and duration are the main determinants of effective cooling.

  • Too Cold: Direct frozen towels or direct ice contact to the skin can result in skin damage, frostbite and cause blood cells to vasoconstrict, blocking heat within and keeping cold out.
  • Not Cold Enough: Heavy towels block the cold from the ice to reach the skin to be effective.
  • Can’t Stay Cold Long: To reverse internal core body overheating, the ice towels have to be cold at a constant temperature long enough to reduce internal body core temperatures to 37°C (98.6°F).
  • Constant Cold: Cannot keep the cooling temperature constant, as ice melts quickly in extreme heat, leaving you with an awkward wet mess.
  • Heavy Maintenance: Constant re-wrapping, new ice and new towels to compensate for limited performance and duration. 

Krazy Kool Technology System universal, versatile and advanced cold technology system is designed to provide fast, effective, long-lasting cooling in extreme heat to anyone, anywhere, anytime without the limitations of ice, batteries, noisy fans, or wet awkward mess.

Is the Krazy Kool Technology™ System is just another wet cooling towel?

Wet cooling towels are all made from PVA fabric or polyacrylate-based fibers. Extreme heat 90F (32C) renders wet towels ineffective. Wet cooling towels can lose their effectiveness: 1) when the air is very hot and dry, they need constant re-wetting; and 2) in high humid environment, the wet towels cannot evaporate.

How effective is the Krazy Kool Technology™ System compared to cooling vests?

Krazy Kool Technology System is designed and engineered to help the body restore normal temperatures and gain unhindered unlimited freedom in extreme heat and humidity in a few minutes.

The ineffectiveness of cold ice vest or wet cooling vests is in the inherent design. Cold ice on bare skin on the main body and melting ice on a person's uniform or clothing is neither effective, efficient nor practical. Sheets of small ice cubes melt rapidly in extreme heat above 90F (32C) and without a freezer nearby has limited effectiveness and portability. Ice vests are not universal fit for all users, all situations, not for everyday use, not versatile nor practical.

When do I use your Cold Therapy?

Even slight increases in core temperature can result in slower reaction times, impair decision-making, and reduce muscle function. Professional athletes rely on a variety of cold therapy strategies to manage body temperature in extreme heat conditions: 

  1. Preventative Cooling when you are slightly overworked, mild overheating or heat want to delay overheating, cool the body slightly. Target Zones: Carotid (neck);
  2. Pre-Activity or Exposure Cooling Routine to lower core body temperatures before activity or entering hot or extreme conditions, can delay overheating and reduce body cooling load. Target Zones: Carotid (neck), Chest, and Axillary (armpits);
  3. Periodic Activity or Exposure Cooling Routine during activity, game or practice breaks. Target Zones: Carotid (neck), Chest and Axillary (armpits);
  4. Post Activity or Exposure Recovery Routine core body zone and muscle

Target Zones: Carotid (neck), Chest, Axillary (armpits) and Inguinal (groin), then overused muscles.
