We freshened up the lids with the CNC machine this week, bit of a visual reboot

Slide your finger on the pump and it changes the duty cycle rate of the water pump. Instead of on full blast (originally 100%), now you can slow it down and let the fan pull all the BTUs of energy out of the radiator coils, before replenish the radiator with new cold water.

Reduces power consumption and makes the 'fuel/ice' last longer

You have a temperature sensor to measure your output air temp and display a graph after your flight, for time vs output air temp/duty cycle rate. Just plug your power cord into the controller, and the controller into IceBox, daisy chained.

IceBox with Bluetooth Controller running in the Union Square subway station/New York City.

Fresh Routes, a local retail shop, was given a strict no-A/C or hot exhaust rule by the MTA for their summer operations. They are using the IceBox + Battery and Bluetooth Controller to cool the employees and customers down.

Go take a look and cool down if you're in the Manhattan area.

P.S. The intake grill was so black from the dirty subway air, they have to vacuum the intake vents every week! Also, the 2x extra coolers in the picture are another 30x gel packs that they rotate throughout the day to keep the A/C going 9am-10pm.
