When temperatures skyrocket, everyday life in non-air-conditioned rooms becomes torture. So that you don’t sweat too much, we’ll introduce you to ten cooling gadgets.
1. Cooling gel pad
The heat wave is particularly felt by those people who live in an attic apartment. The rooms heat up so much during the day that they are also far too warm at night. To help you get to sleep, you can use a cooling gel pillow. Place the mat in the refrigerator for half an hour, then place it on the pillow or in the pillowcase.
2. Garden shower
On hot summer days, a garden is worth its weight in gold. If you want to enjoy the beautiful weather in your local green area, but at the same time long for a refreshing cool down, we recommend a garden shower. The movable and height-adjustable water dispenser can be set up in just a few minutes and can provide you with cool water outdoors – both in the garden and on the terrace.
3. Ice block drink cooler
When temperatures rise to dizzying heights, ice cubes melt away within seconds. This makes it particularly difficult to enjoy a cool drink in the sun – unless you have a drinks cooler. The prefabricated form is filled with water and frozen in the ice compartment. The finished ice block can then be placed over all the bottles that are in a drinks crate and cool the contents.
4. Cooling multifunctional cloth
Sometimes you can’t avoid being outdoors all day despite the high temperatures. Here the risk is particularly high that the heat will literally go to your head. To avoid sunstroke, you should carry a cooling multifunctional cloth with you. The effect is activated by wetness or wringing out and pouring out and lasts up to four hours. No matter whether you use it as a towel, scarf or headwear.
5. Mini USB fan
When temperatures climb to dizzying heights, it no longer makes sense to open the window: hot air would only flow in. If you have to sit at a desk all day, the oppressive heat will take its toll on you – which is why a cool breeze blowing around your nose can do wonders. This is made possible with a mini fan that you simply connect to your PC via a USB interface.
6. Gel face mask
Many people tend to experience tension and headaches at high temperatures. Be it due to the oppressive heat or restless sleep caused by the warm air in the room. In both cases, a cooling gel face mask can help. Put the mask in the fridge or freezer for half an hour and then put it on your face – after just a few minutes you will notice the pleasant cold relaxation.
7. Pet Cooling Mat
Dogs and cats also suffer from the scorching heat when temperatures are high and flee into the shade. If you want to do something good for your pet and help him regulate his body temperature, purchasing a cooling mat (combined from cooling gel and foam) is extremely useful. The self-cooling pillow works without electricity – and is only activated upon physical contact.
8. Portable mini fridge
If you spend a lot of time in the car or at the office, you’re probably feeling the full brunt of the heat wave. To keep a cool head, you should drink a lot – but that’s not easy if, for example, you don’t have a refrigerator on site. Here we recommend a mobile mini-fridge with four liters of storage space, which you can conveniently and easily connect to the socket or socket in the vehicle.
9. Outdoor atomizer
Have you ever stood for a while in the supermarket in front of the vegetable shelf that is kept cool with the help of a fine atomizer? You can also bring the same effect into your home or garden: The steam nozzles can be attached under the awning or on the parasol outdoors – the fine cloud of microscopically small water drops is said to be able to cool down the immediate surroundings by up to 11 degrees.
10. Ice Cream Machine
Everyone loves ice cream: last year alone we consumed an average of 8.3 liters of ice cream per person. And 2020 will certainly be no different. Nevertheless, we are very annoyed about the rising prices per scoop of ice cream, so why not produce our own ice cream? For one thing, you can use whatever ingredients you like best. On the other hand, you can stock up to survive the hot days.
