The Power Breezer mobile cooling device is an energy efficient cooling system that can drop the temperature over 27 degrees in a 3000 sq/ft area (uncovered or partially covered). It uses no harmful chemicals and, unlike swamp coolers, it won’t spray water all over personnel and equipment but rather uses a process incorporating water atomization.
The Power Breezer mobile cooling device is available for unit and agency orders through www.adsinc.com.

The FPG Survivor System is a patent pending heat reflective backpack shelter. The system is all about living out of your ruck. It goes back to basic field craft, giving the user a lot of options for employment. The FPG Survivor System is designed to be used with the Marauder Pack System but can be employed alone in a variety of ways.
It can be used alone to wrap yourself up for a halt or in conjunction with the poles to prepare a variety of configurations.
Camouflage netting enhances the performance of the asymmetric shape for concealment.
You can batten down the hatches for inclement weather or open it up for use over a firing or observation point, or for use in hot environments.
The Survivor Sysyem also integrates the sleeping pad from the Marauder Pack which snaps right into place.
Litefighter is a Service Disabled, Veteran owned family business that specializes in individual shelter systems. Their new FULL-SPECTRUM 1 shelter replaces the issue mosquito bar and a full shelter half system.
The footprint is perfect for setting up on a GI cot and incorporates a single pole system with 6 arms that make setup a snap.
The 3+ season shelter is extremely compact and weighs only 4 lbs, 8 oz.
Litefighter offers flies in several color schemes which incorporate a full 14 sq ft of vestibule compared to the 7 sq ft normally found in commercial backpacking shelters. This means plenty of room for your mission essential equipment.
This product was designed “by Soldiers for Soldiers” and includes many features not normally seen elsewhere. For example, the mesh is Permethrin treated and the tent bottom is reinforced anywhere it touches a cot’s metal frame. Additionally, the FULL-SPECTRUM 1 comes with a repair kit including a sleeve for broken poles.

Soldier Systems had a chance to talk to Caleb Johnson of Creative Tent International at Darley Defense Day last Thursday. We weren’t able to put hands on much of their product line, but we did get to look through their catalog and talk about their shelters a little bit. The Creative Tent International shelters, such as the “Shasta Shelter® product lines” are designed to be lightweight, rapidly deployable and easy to put in place (they can be used for full-time use as well as contingency operations, of course, but the expeditionary side of things is what initially caught our eye). Their shelters range in size from small personnel billeting to a monster you can park an Osprey in with some room to spare. The latter is the FTS 200; it can be accessorized with HVAC, lighting, flooring, insulating liners and other necessities.
Features of their big boy include:

McNett brand Outgo has added a COOLMAX Sleep Sack and sleeping bag liner to its product line. The ultra-compact mummy-style COOLMAX Sleep Sack offers the versatility of use as a sleeping bag liner or in place of a sleeping bag while traveling or in warmer climates.
“The Outgo COOLMAX Sleep Sack not only adds warmth when you’re cold, but regulates body temperature to cool you down when you overheat,” said David Wiggs, vice-president of marketing at McNett.
Available in green or blue, the sleep sack is now available for purchase.

Weighing in at 16ounces, the newly released Kifaru Woobie Express is based on the already proven Woobie technology. As you can see it is worn poncho style and is a little smaller than other products that are designed for a wide range of uses.
It features a high collar and can be thrown over your armor and other gear during halts or anytime you need to hunker down.
We love hammocks but let’s face it, they are kind of cramped. But not anymore, at least now that Tentsile is on the scene. The advantages are obvious; stay up, off of the ground and avoid pests, water, dangerous animals and other threats.
They offer shelters to accommodate groups ranging in size from 2 – 8 persons. Tentsile will work with you to build to your requirements but generally, the larger versions of these super hammocks follow a three-pointed design with individual sleeping areas radiating out from a communal porch.
Tentsile shelters aren’t for every environment but if the conditions are right, they sure do look like a lot of fun.
