Trucking & LogisticsVehicle Mechanical Issues4HighDriver$ implied

A truck driver's vehicle A/C has been broken for 3 years, and existing portable solutions are impractical due to power and size constraints.

Current solutions are too large, consume too much power, or cannot run while driving, leaving no effective in-cab cooling.

  • Low power consumption optimized for 12V/24V systems
  • Runs off vehicle battery with auto shut-off to prevent drain
  • Easy installation with pre-cut hole template and sealant kit
Target Users: Long-haul truck drivers whose vehicle A/C is broken or inadequate, especially those in hot climates and older trucks.
Revenue Model: $499 one-time purchase plus $29 for optional installation kit
