items This is what I use to survive 100-degree weather under the sun while I'm outside for hours with no electricity.

Frogg Toggs® Chilly Pad® PRO Microfiber Cooling Towel
I'm so happy I decided to go with this misting fan. It holds so much water. I was using it for about 4 hours, and it didn't run out of water or battery. I recommend putting a little ice cube where the water goes or putting cold water in it. I was loo...
O2 COOL® Sport Misting Fan
I use this to cool down a lot too. This one is a more portable cooling solution. I take this with me everywhere and the battery lasts really long.
JISULIFE 3 IN 1 USB Rechargeable Mini Fan
I take this with me when I know I'm going to be stuck outside in the heat. It has 4 settings and a light. I used this when my AC broke down to keep my dog cool, and I had it on for about 8 hours.

Cooling Towels
This is a mini towel that I put on my chair while I have the bigger one around my neck.
FROGG TOGGS Chilly Mini Cooling Neck Towel
I take 4 ice cubes and water in this cup whenever I leave the house and the ice lasts forever. I think that having the straw cover helps a lot with keeping the water cold.
FreeSip® Water Bottle
This is my designated Gatorade water bottle. It fits 4 ice cubes and a 12-oz bottle of Gatorade perfectly. The ice also lasts forever.
YETI 18 oz Color Cap Insulated Water Bottle
I take a mini insulated cup with me filled with ice just in case. If I know I'll have access to ice I'll take it empty
Owala Kids Flip Insulated Stainless Steel Bottle
This is where I store my snacks and drinks. It holdsa lot. It fits around 6 bottles of water in the bottom compartment. It also has a compartment at the top where I keep fruit. I add ice packs where the water bottles are to keep them cold.
Titan Deep Freeze® | 12 can Zipperless Cooler
This is the tent I use when I do markets. It's a good price and has lasted me 4 years
Academy Sports + Outdoors Easy Shade 10 ft x 10 ft Slant Leg Canopy
This is the detachable wall I put on the tent to block the sun. It has velcro straps, and it's really easy to set up and take down.
