After watching an Ultrachiller cool shirt work at Speed Week (Bockscar), I though this the perfect addition to my lakester. It is a simple device and all parts save the shirt and submersible pump, can be sourced from Home Depot or some other big box store like it. The only real problem, at least for me, was finding correct poly tubing connectors. I settled on 5/16? and had to order the T and one 90 degree elbow from the UK. Thank goodness for free freight. So, other than waiting for a couple of fittings from overseas, the chiller part is done. Ultra chiller sells just the cool shirt for $100 so the whole mess set me back about $150. That beats $600 by a bunch.
Now, I haven?t tested it yet So it may not work but all components are duplicates of an Ultrachiller. I want this system to mount in car so additional water lines have to be installed. Depending on whether I use insulated lines from chiller to driver or just regular poly tubing remains to be seen. Insulated is best but expensive.
Hope this works because with money saved, I can get a much needed GPS Speedo.
