In theory this is a really good idea- it’s a freezable gel pack that goes on top of any standard fan. Let that fan blow ice cold air instead of just air. Sounds good. In execution, the Cool Breeze Fan Pack has one major issue- the ice pack blocks the fan! I’m (clearly) not an engineer but I think that the ice pack needs to be on the backside of fan. Not sure if that would help the air flow. The reviews seem to agree- maybe it just needs to be on a larger fan so more air can circulate? I don’t know.

Frobo Pet Bowl Keeps Water Chilled for 8 Hours
Summer is coming and your pets need to stay cool. Since they are too short and lack the opposable thumbs needed to work the air conditioner, they need to drink cold water to cool off. With the Frobo Pet Bowl, that water will stay cold for 8 hours without electricity, batteries or having to add in ice cubes every 30 minutes.
The Frobo has a freezable center- just place it in your freezer 2 hours beforehand and it turns a blueish white when frozen. Now fill with water, the rubber base keeps it in place while your pet laps up 24 ounces of nice cold water all day long. Just $29 at Amazon or ThinkGeek (the Amazon description says it comes with 2 inserts, TG doesn’t specify although it’s probably the same- in any case extra inserts are available separately here).
