Hey guys....we have a great person who has been a major help to the site and forum members here asking for our help.....I expect a little better than this......remember there is a time and place for screwing around.

I think sitting on it during gaming is interesting....how would it hold up to the weight of a person, and would it make a difference in keeping people from being sweaty?

The TV idea is a good one in my opinion....what about consoles, like an XBox360 or PS3?
Maybe silly, but what about as a seat cooler for your car on a hot day? I know people here in Vegas would definitely appreciate something like that?

If I understand correctly it helps dissipate heat, so dissipating heat from a human wouldn't be very different then from a laptop or game console. I think this theory needs to be tested though, and I will volunteer my sweaty butt to the cause.

Game Consoles to get pretty hot, I am sure it would work pretty well on those, and like stinger said monitors.

I think it'd be interesting to be perfectly honest. I know its meant for tech devices....but would it work on the seat of a car or golf cart?

And I'd be very interested to see its affect on my constantly overheating X-Box

I definitely like the idea of using it in the car on hot days. My Jeep has a leather interior, and wearing shorts on hot days, the seat burns my legs and my ass. Nice idea! =)

Sodium Sulfate Decahydrate Na2SO4.10H2O

Think about the chemical properties of what the iXoft is made of. It's good for retaining temperatures hot and cold.

I will check all of your ideas Capper, just as soon as I have it in my greedy little hands

Still looks like it could be a pot holder to me.

If you've ever ridden a motorcycle on a hot day you know how the vinyl seat can give your backside a nasty case of "Monkey Butt". A product like this could really help prevent that by keeping the monkey off your butt.

Ha, nothing is worse than stopping at a light. All the heat from the motor + temperature is killer.
