Hi, I am looking for some people that spend time working in a refrigerated store to trial a solution I believe I have discovered for the cold hand problem.

I have been selling wetsuits with my breath powered hand heating solution across the northern states of Europe and America for the last 6 years. However I think I have just solved the problem of the vapor in the breath which means this solution would now apply to the dry work environment. As I am simply redistributing heat rather than trying to generate additional heat my system provides a solution where as current battery or chemical technology does not.

I will gladly email details of the system to any one curious. It is a very discrete mouth piece resting on the coat collar under the chin and a 8mm diameter tube link the runs under the coat to the gloves. Very simple and totally comfortable to wear.

Annoyingly I have now run out of winter just as I have got to a system I am happy to share with others. I am therefore looking for some great open minded people to experiment with my system in the refrigerated warehouse environment so that I can refine it before committing to a design to launch next winter. My promise to the participants is quite simple, I will make sure they never are troubled by cold hands ever again.

In these early stages I am not in a position to go in at the corporate employer level, I am hoping to refine things with some guys at ground level first. My system can be worn under any uniform and mandatory clothing dictated.

If you think you could help make a difference please call me or message me on this forum.
Thank you for your kind attention.

According to studies published in the English Journal of Medicine, the impact of daylight savings is revealed by a 24% increase in heart attacks on the Monday following the spring shift forward. When clocks move back in autumn, heart attacks drop by about 21%, suggesting that loss of sleep is an important driver.
