Thanks for your videos. I have a cold pod and have been exploring some other options and based on your videos am leaning towards the 400. Any rumors about them making a 400 thats insulated? I'm in NJ. Would insulation help it not get as cold? Trying to keep at 45 degrees and as it gets colder here, probably will freeze, so if i can keep it in the 40s with insulation might be more apt to use it in the winter. Let me know if you could.
My pleasure and thanks for the support! I just posted a review of their new 500. Similar to the 400 but insulated. It’s pretty sweet. No talk of the 400 being insulated yet unfortunately but I would also love that! The 400 is still my personal favorite
I really want to get my hands on one! Obviously following you and doing my own research (including listening to huberman podcast on it) , I’m convinced! Not only for my recovery and mental fortitude, but I’d be curious how it will help my husband and the stress he endures as a cop of 23 years.
I got mine recently, largely on the advice of this channel, which I appreciate. I'm a small business owner, so not made of money, but regardless of cost (obviously within reason) I can't recommend the 400 enough. I have received numerous benefits form my daily plunges far beyond what I expected, and for 1,200USD I expected quite a bit. If you're considering one and funds and space aren't an issue I highly recommend it. Cheers.
I noticed in the DIY video you drilled two holes for the chiller but in this video, your tan 400 is using the drain spicket for the return. Which do you suggest is better?
You should make a video on DIY insulation techniques for the 400. A lot of people still love the 400 and would love to use it without a chiller having their water stay colder longer.
@@DavidMausJr I watched the DIY video (it was amazing) and I kept waffling back and forth "should I" or "shouldn't I" take the plunge with the DIY. Then I thought, which one? 300 or 400. And Voila....here's a video. Thank you!
That is a much needed topic in need of a solution. I'm looking into alternatives myself. I'll definitely share if I come up with any solutions. Please do the same. 🙏🏽🤙🏽
I really like the 400. But I was thinking of buying an all in one chiller that also has the option to heat the water. Do you think the 400 is durable enough to handle 103 degree water ? Would the 300 or another option be better ?
Does the chiller run 24 hours? or does it only need to be activated a 1 to 6 hours prior to plunging? If the schedule is to plunge first thing in the morning (0500) - would turning the chiller on at nite (10pm or 2200) allow for sufficient cooling? My cheap vinyl plunge is maintaining 65-70F in ambient air currently - so looking for a 15 degree drop in 6-7 hours seems reasonable. Might be helpful to get a range of hp to cooling range/time to reach guide.
Hey brother love the content as usual! Would you be able to obtain and do a review of the coldture inflatable barrel?? I'm interested in one of those. Thanks!
I just looked those up (there is about 10 cold plunge companies coming out a week) and they are all about the same thing. lol You should check out my review of Ice Up Industries. They were one of the first inflatable barrels and it looks like it is the same manufacturer.
The 400 is legit with the insulation! I've said it before, I love your content. Keep going! It is authentic and you are a family man! #airforce #charlestonafb #medical
Thanks brother, we appreciate you sharing all your feedback. My son and I have been looking into the ice barrel but currently we use our large freestanding tub we’re just over buying tons of bagged ice, definitely appreciate you sharing the chiller hookup.
Do you typically rinse before getting in or do you have on any lotions, deodorants, etc? I dont like to use much, maybe some hydrogen peroxide, but rinsing before helps a ton
@DavidMausJr After my bedtime shower, i usually lotion up, and then first thing in the morning, i would jump straight in. I figured that could be the cause, so i started rinsing first before going in to see if it helped. It's only been a week, so we'll see. Thank you.
Ordered a 300 using your code, but I think I really want the 400. This is going in an apartment and I’m worried about the condensation I see on the 400. Is it excessive? Would a drip mat underneath be enough to contain it? Thanks!
That’s awesome! I love the 400. With the chiller setup like I have it does condensate quite a bit, but a drip may would more than likely contain it. It’s also on a stand so that helps too.
Great question. But theres a few sub-questions to that one: 1. do i have a budget? 2. how much space do i have and can it be semi permanent or do i need to be able to move it easily? 3. Who all is going to be using it and how often?
@@DavidMausJr 1. No budget 2. Space is not an issue. Either semi-permanent or portable 3. Family of 3 but, most likely just one person who will be consistent at least 3-4 times a week.
