Hi, I wasn't totally sure where to post this but I am currently working on a prototype electronic cooling system for my fursuit. As far as I can tell I am the first to come up with this particular design and would rather not get into how it works but I have calculated that the very minimum run time would be 3-4 hours per set of rechargeable lithium ion batteries and max run time needs to be tested. I was really wondering who would might be interested and how much people would be willing to spend on it. With batteries (it uses 2 at a time) I have put about $200 into the prototype and at most will be putting another $50 into it. So ya... What do you all think? Ideas, questions, price you think i should sell them for if it works?

Electronic huh? I was suppose to be working on a cooling system myself but got a bit...distracted with life and work. Well... mostly its just work. I've been needed it for my suit, since it gets pretty warm wearing it, even when just standing around doing nothing. I haven't been doing much suiting lately, so I kind of been lacking the motivation. :\

Did you review both the US and Canadian patent database? http://www.uspto.gov/  http://brevets-patents.ic.gc.ca/opic-cipo/cpd/eng/introduction.html. Patent Infringement is a serious crime and caries heavy financial implications.

So far, I have not been able to find any thing similar any where I have looked but I haven't yet looked at the Canadian patents, but I am pretty sure i am the first to come up with thia design because the device I am using is still fairly new and unheard of to the normal home based inventors, and Iwas lucky enough to stubble across it while surfing the web and thinking (a dangerous mix).
