    Here it is






    The I.C Can™ is the result of the solid partnership of Tempra Technology and Crown Cork & Seal, who are currently discussing commercialization and marketing of this self-chilling can to top beverage companies. Imagine: an icy cold beverage without refrigerated vending machines or bulky ice chests.

    The world’s first self-chilling can is finally here! It works. It’s safe. And it’s development is nearing completion now through the partnership of Tempra Technology and Crown Cork & Seal.

    The advanced design utilizes the latest breakthroughs in thermal, insulating and vacuum heat pump technology. The self-contained I.C. Can™ is the approximate size of a 500 mL beverage can. This includes the beverage container itself, and the integral self-chilling device.

    Proprietary engineering creates a temperature drop proven to reduce the I.C. Can’s™ contents by a minimum of 30° Fahrenheit (16.7° C) in just minutes. When activated, the all natural desiccant contained within a vacuum draws the heat from the beverage through the evaporator into an insulated heat-sink container. It is this patented vacuum-power which lowers the temperature so dramatically and quickly, leaving the beverage inside cool and refreshing.

    And it’s safe! I.C. Can’s™ innovative design is 100% safe and environ- mentally-friendly; easy to operate, store and transport. The self-contained I.C. Can™ uses no carbon dioxide, CFC, HFC, or any other compressed gases and is totally non-toxic, without risk of gas or vapor escape.

    As Tempra Technology and Crown Cork & Seal continue to finalize development of the self-chilling I.C. Can™ for mass production, we’ll also innovate new cutting-edge technologies for other applications in the beverage industry.

    To learn more about the exciting - and very real - I.C. Can™, call 1-877-TEMPRA-1.

    hrm basic plant pots have had this for years - water is taken throuigh the porus terracotta stuff (sometimes by capillary action if it goes up the way, just cos i know that word and want to use it) then evaporates from the surface resulting in the pot getting cooler, which makes the plants roots not get ****ed in some way or other

    this new vacum stuff sounds interesting though, just hope it doesnt put up prices like deadly said - i assume it will be one can you put other normal cans inside or something

    well it's gotta be better than that tizer cold stuff they did a few years ago (i think it was tizer)

    "No drink in the fridge?? Grab a can of Tizer Cold - it's cold, even at room temperature!!"

    it was bloody gross - they just put menthol in it. It wasn't cold, but just had that weird toothpaste taste

    Shooooooo-ryuken!
