Well we're now three days and a cold snap into it and zero condensation...

Whether its coincial or not.

I'm seriously considering one of those for the boot so would be uber interested if it works - keep us all posted.

Is that since you cleaned/changed the pollen filter ?

Have you noticed a difference in the output of the blower since you did it ?

The penguin is now sitting happily on the back seat, when it starts raining again which usually causes condensation we will see if it makes much difference.

Certainly have. also noticed that i'm warm before i get home now aswell.


Surprised what a few leaves do isnt it really.


I had a bit of steamy window tonight but i did a short journey so figured that probably caused that.

Look foward to your results Ben.

Yes.

I think that for the price of the pollen filter and how easy it is to do - it will get replaced when I do my oil&filter changes.

My pingi finally arrived today after 8 blimmin days [:@]. Only thing is that i am now off for xmas hols so it will be a while before i can propperly test it and see if it does anything.

As long as it prevents frozen widescreens inside i'm happy.

Had my Pingi in the car for a week now, and have not had any more condensation problems, it also has not been frozen in the morning, but it hasn't been as cold here in the midlands as it has down south. Would recommend it to anyone with condensation in the car.

no condensation for me either, but I still think its too early to tell if it really has made a difference, but having a penguin in the back seat is worth it! :happy:

Had to 'recharge' the pingi today in the microwave.. you should have seen the steam, so it must be doing something! I would say there is less steaming up as well, so a good buy.

I've had good results with mine. Had my car mats soaked with a pile of snow that my feet carried in and i was rather surprised the next day as I had absolutely no condensation :D.
I get some light condensation due to breathing on very cold days but it soon clears. Tenner well spent and would definately recommend.

Its been freezing every night for nearly 2 weeks now and the day time temp doesnt rise much above zero. Still works a treat with no frozen windscreen inside.
Would be interesting to see how well it works in a house although you'd prob need the biggest 1 ^^ .
