Customer Reviews of Ace Instant Cold Compress (Pack of 12)
Customer Review: Work as well as can be expected...
Summary: 5 Stars
These work as well as can be expected for this type of product. The chemical reaction really just depends on proper mixture and making sure they are not old and therefor containing degraded, less potent chemicals to react. Anyway, I bought one of these at the pharmacy I work at to experiment with it to see how cold it would get and for how long. I tried other brands as well, but this one seemed to be among the best as far as how cold it got and how long it stayed cold. Each was tested at room temperature of 23.5C (~74F). At its coldest which was achieved after about 1 minute, it had a surface temperature of 9C (~48F). No, that is not nearly as cold as a pre-frozen ice pack, but you cannot expect that from a relatively safe chemical reaction like this. Anyway, it stayed "cold" to the touch for approximately 30 minutes after which it had a surface temperature of 20C (~68F) which in my opinion, relative to the ambient temperature of 23.5C, no longer provides any relief no matter what reason you are using it. Keep in mind, if used outside in the heat, this is not going to get as cold or stay cold as long...also, it is going to absorb body heat when you actually use it so plan on it lasting less than my test. I only tested these for keeping with me in my tactical vest while playing Airsoft so that when we stop in a safe location while playing or when we take a break, I can pop one out and cool off a little faster in the hot Texas heat. I plan to test the Dynarex packs that Amazon sells next since they are pretty cheap. Hope this helped.
