This would probably come in handy for hikers in less than optimal shape.

I know I've felt like a little belt of straight oxygen would have greatly appreciated.

I am thinking a mini AC unit would be more handy right now!

THE NEW WAY TO HIKE MT EVEREST!!!!!.....um...or not....a fourteener maybe? ug, gag me...can't justify the cost of this thing for a silly 14er. I cannot think of a real good use for this!

It has a two hour battery life . . . I'm thinking if you're going to be up high enough where the air is thin you usually spend more than two hours on the trip.

Maybe not even a 14er, as it is only good down to 41 degrees F. What a strange invention.
