Staying cool.  Can't afford another heat stoke. 


With climate change that's only going to get worse.  Water is good, A/C is better.  Personally I like cool basements (as I type this from my hellish attic lair with the AMD Threadripper reading 62-C°) as they require less energy to keep cool.

 

If no A/C unit is available, a swamp cooler isn't a bad option.  Just have to keep an eye on it to make sure the water doesn't sit for too long.  Window fans are also great, even multiple for a cross breeze.  I ran mine in the rain without issues too.

After suffering my first ever heat stroke in 2013, I've spent the last few years climatizing myself to a year round temperature between 80 to 85 degrees.  The only issue is, my Sunlight allergy spikes when I'm outside in temps of 92+ degrees.  I counter that by wearing Duluth Cooling Gear like Armachillo, AKHG and BEST MADE apparel.

:cool👍

I'm more comfortable around 78-83, but that's still too hot for most people.

 

I'm getting ready to go to the venue to check things out/possibly set up lighting (I'm hoping Stu will let me use his lightshow instead because my stuff is heavy.)

No at a Festival as part of a history/educational group. Was talking about hema and buhurt. I only know German longsword and English saber.

Coolness and Yikes!

So apparently, right now, I'm learning something new about a person.

:biggrin:
