Extreme heat. The trending air-conditioned jacket on a motorcycle—what’s it really like? (´ω｀)

21 July 2023

The neck and wrists feel so cool~ (´ω｀)

So,
are you really going to keep going with the air-conditioned jacket topic?
Summer sales are already starting, you know?

Well, I’m not really chasing the latest trends anyway.

Riding a motorcycle in this extreme heat is kind of “a bit weird.”

I’m basically holding a heating appliance between my legs
and riding with full protective gear on top and bottom.

I really want them to try on an air-conditioned jacket once…

Air flows out from the wrists and neck! So cool~

A gentle breeze flows through—it’s really GOOD.
Especially “slow riding” and “waiting at traffic lights” are comfortable.
These two situations are pretty brutal normally.

If you have air flowing, it’s a bit better? That’s how it feels.

I noticed something else today.

“The breeze reaches inside the helmet too”

I didn’t notice it during my short commute.
Today I was wandering around on my Zephyr 550,

“absolutely ridiculous traffic,”
there’s just no way around it… left and right… not fun.

While waiting at a traffic light,
“yeah, the air-conditioned jacket is really comfortable,” I thought to myself…
but my face felt cool…

The breeze from the collar area flows gently toward the helmet,
“and the upper neck is cool too.”
I was genuinely impressed (*´ω｀*)

Because the jacket is puffed up,
it doesn’t cling to your body.

When a shirt or jacket clings to you, it’s “super hot.”
But with
the airflow lifting it up, you’re wrapped in a breeze♪

You don’t go “huff huff huff” as much.
Does that make sense? What do you think?

After going around six times, just buy the genuine one! ( ；∀；)

In the end, I went with all genuine Burtle products. ふふふ… (‘Д’)

There are issues like “my mobile battery doesn’t fit”
or “I’d need a conversion cable to use it,”
and honestly, there are various drawbacks, plus it’s a hassle to search for alternatives.

As you can see in the image, the battery is very compact.

It’s pretty small… I was a bit surprised.
The design is playful and interesting too~

The weight is light enough that it’s not a burden (´ω｀)

I’ve been going in circles—what was I even doing?
Human perception is fickle, after all,

“once it cools down a bit, interest fades.”

But I did think about something.
If there’s extreme heat and a power outage or water shortage happens,
wouldn’t it be good to have something that can ease it a bit?
*Assuming the battery still has charge

You can manage cold somehow, but heat is honestly tough.
There’s a limit to how much you can take off…

It might be worth having one for both offense and defense, right?
