Product Vision
Thermoelectric Cooling (TEC) Cooling side ices the injury No leakage
Peltier/TEC
Critical Risk
Key Finding: The TEC can get to an adequate cold temperature
Temperature
Layer of ice
Critical Risk
Key Finding: Requires heat sink and forced convection
Heat Dissipation
Critical Risk
Power
Key Finding: Current system runs at 14V and 3A
Market Definition
