I'm sure they are. It's like $200 for the system. Take the pads out the helmet, install the hoses and motor, put the pads back in. Not much to it..


This is the link I ordered from....

Its a neat concept.... I doubt LSU has some sort of competitive advantage. I'd be willing to bet every SEC school has these or at least the big dogs.


From what I recall, it's a Louisiana company and LSU is the first to use but other universities including SEC schools have since placed orders.

It's just a fan blowing the same hot air.

The vents on the helmets allow it to pull fresh air. I tried it on a vented and unvented hardhat and the vented one felt considerably cooler.

Mine came from Richmond, VA.

Tigerair, a Baton Rouge based company is who LSU used. I believe it was patented by them.

I’m sure everyone will have them in short order- unless we have some patent on them
