Im going home Donny Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Okay..it is approaching 4am and in my insomia ridden state I am offering up to you, my fellow jambandigans my million dollar idea, if it doesnt exist. If it does..I need it.One of my biggest irks in falling asleep is being boiling..mostly my noggin on my pillow. I flip the dam thing over and over till there is no cool corners left...what I think would be fucking awesome is a pillow made of some kinda freezable gel shit that would stay cool well long enough to fall asleep. Does this wonder cool pillow exist? If not would someone please invent it?..just throwin a million dollar idea out there..I'd buy it! I'm too tired to make it. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwa. Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 hows about a pillow that has some sort of ventilation so that it keeps you cool and provides you with oxygen enriched air and somehow keeps you from snoring. Yep, I want one of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timouse Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Link Weird Tokyo-based startup Kuchofuku [JP] and major trading company Itochu have developed a mattress of a very special kind: Just in time for the summer, the proud owners can switch on a built-in “air conditioning system†in order to cool off their bodies. The fan is located at the foot of the mattress. When it’s switched on, air is being pulled in from behind the sleeper’s head and transported to the feet, drawing off that nasty body heat. It’s quite cheap, too. According to the makers, operating the mattress for eight hours results in about 13 cents in monthly electricity costs, which is way less than using an air conditioner that cools an entire room. The best part is that the mattress can be used in winter as well, as buyers get a heater with the mattress. Running eight hours a day, the system will generate only about 13 yen in — much cheaper than using an air conditioner to cool an entire bedroom. The mattress goes on sale in May in Japan in May and costs $300. The Japan Trend Shop (a reliable English online store for stuff from Japan) is actually selling Kuchofuku beds already, like here. So if you live outside Japan and want to stop sweating, you now know who you can contact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanada Kev Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Go oldschool ... get a water bed. I've got a massive one and it is heated. Means you get into a warm bed in the winter. In the summer you keep it cool and you're never boiling. Ride the wave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That pillow thingy looks pretty good too but memory foam makes me feel all angry and claustrophobic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
