Intro: The weather in Texas is insanely hot 5 months out of the year. My ice hat is a low-tech way to fend off heat exhaustion or heat stroke while working or playing outside. This may seem a little silly, but it helped me survive a summer with no AC in my truck, July & August yard maintenance, and many fishing trips with my son, who is not bothered by the heat.
Cost is zero to fifteen dollars, depending on whether you already have a hat.
Important Safety Note: Use only plain ice or ice+water. Do NOT use salt to reduce the temperature, or frostbite is likely to result. Don' t even THINK about using dry ice (solid CO2) unless you want to need skin grafts on top of your head.
