It’s a simple fact of physics that the greater the surface area over which energy can be transferred, the faster the energy will transfer our of a given object. This is especially true for heat, and the reason why heatsinks look the way they do.

Tinchilla can cool your luke-warm Mountain Dew from a sluggish room-temperature to a crispy cold in just 60 seconds. Sure, you could put your cans in the fridge, but where would you keep your backup supply? [via]

    What does the Mt. Dew Bottle advertisement have to do with a product that cools cans? Also, a link to the actual product would be nice: http://www.coolest-gadgets.com/20070306/tinchilla-%E2%80%93-instantly-cooling-your-beer-cans-in-only-60-seconds/

    Quit with your torture! In the land of the Queen (the UK that is, not Canada, Australia or any other colony :P:P) we don’t have Mountain Dew :(
