Darley Defense Days – Power Breezer

Wednesday, June 4th, 2014

The Power Breezer is a multi-purpose mobile environmental cooling device. It is capable of cooling up to 3000 sq. ft., reducing temperatures by up to 27F. It utilizes a unique water atomization technique that feeds from a 100 gallon integrated tank, which supplies 50 hours of continuous use, and the fan stores inside the tank for easy storage.

The Power Breezer had recently been qualified for Military standard 810G for salt fog. This qualification, along with with the recent addition of tie downs, now sees the Power Breezer being used on Navy ships.

Notably, the Power Breezer is currently being used in Basic Training at Fort Sill, Fort Leonard Wood, and Fort Benning as a proactive approach to heat mitigation. It also sees use with the Carolina Panthers and other sports teams, multiple zoos and entertainment venues, and other clients.

Rolly Mini Toothbrush

Thursday, January 30th, 2014

I first got to look at this product during SOMA 2013 and I really like the idea. Rolly Mini Toothbrush is billed as ‘The World’s Smallest Toothbrush’. Available in a 6-pack, non-reflective blister, Rolly is similar in size to a small mint, hands-free, and requires no water, making it ideal for Soldiers in the field. Rolly utilizes fluoride and a sugar-free mint flavored containing Xylitol, a non-fermentable sugar alcohol flavoring clinically proven to fight cavities. You get filthy in the field and the guys who carry toothbrushes will tell you that they end up as ridden with bacteria. It can almost be worse than having no brush at all. That’s why I think is definitely worth considering at the unit level. Having clean teeth isn’t just a health issue, it’s also a serious morale boost.

Fight And Flight Tactical – T.A.S.K.

Tuesday, January 28th, 2014

The T.A.S.K. (Tactical Ass Scrubbing Kit) is quite possibly the only non-disposable tactical body cleanser currently on the market. Constructed from 8mm antimicrobial spacer mesh, the T.A.S.K. fits standard-sized soap bars, although it also works well with just slivers of soap and even liquid soap, and facilitates a thick lather to wash away dirt and grime, while inhibiting bacterial growth. Includes 6″ webbing loop for hanging out to dry, use at a field sanitation station, or simply for retention.

Available in Black and Tan.
