Personal mister is a great way to help keep cool-at almost zero cost
Just using mine & figured it might help in this heat wave.
http://www.amazon.com/Misty-Mate-Deluxe-Personal-Cooler/product-reviews/B00093ONKG/ref=dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1

It has a bad review but mine has operated flawlessly. I got mine at Home Depot before they went full evil. They were a lot cheaper then too. But after 5 years it still works fine & adding some ice cubes to the mix is the shiznitz!.

Another good cheap source for the same thing is a garden sprayer-one that has not been used for pesticides of course. But the hose & easy to cary size of this unit works very well at work or whatever.

3. I've had a couple over ten years
...and both still work fine. Occasionally the orifice would clog. probably cuz I never washed the bottle. Working in the Texas heat in the summer without a/c was a bear. I worked in machine shops for 25 yrs before retiring in 1999. I need to get them out cuz I haven't used them at all in a couple of years. One woulda been handy this morning when I was trimming trees.
