How a KoolBreeze Solar Hat Works
A KoolBreeze Solar Hat is like no other hat in the world. It is a tightly woven natural weave hat which does much more than just shade your head and face. When you step into the sunshine wearing a KoolBreeze hat, several things begin to happen, all of them good for you.
First, sunlight hits the photo-voltaic cells mounted on the brim of the hat. Electricity is produced and carried by hidden circuitry to a small protected motor mounted in the hat's crown. A lightweight PVC air guide encloses a specially designed whisper quiet seven blade fan which begins to spin when the motor is energized by the sunlight. The fan then fills the hat with cooling air, venting it both throughout the hat's weave and out the back through an exit port
Your head alone can perspire as much as all the rest of your body, as that is the first place your heart pumps the blood. In fact, your head is responsible for some 20% of the body's heat output, which is why covering your head in the winter works so well. In the hot months, the reverse is true. Natural perspiration produced by your scalp, with a little breeze of air, can be evaporated to produce cooling for your head and the rest of the body. When you wear a KoolBreeze hat, your head's perspiration is continually evaporated and your head stays cooled. The cooled blood flow then circulates down through the rest of your body producing marvelous comfort even in the hottest weather.
