Has anyone used them at an amusement park in Florida where it's hot and humid? Do they work?

I've used them while wearing my son in a baby carrier at disney. Works like a charm! Just need to re-wet more often than normal.

It's worked in humid Houston and all the way to dry West Texas. I imagine Florida wouldn't be any different.

They love hot and humid.Under 40 degrees bring them in.Hang in shady filtered location. some morning sun but no strong direct light.

Not recommended, they will sweat and get soft. Ideally they should go on a rack where the air can flow around them while they cool off. Hope that helps!! =)

If u r working hard, out in the sun, you will probably get too much sweat inside these. They are ventilated, but the air only really circulates when moving, like on a motorcycle or scooter.

That is a close description of what I do and my hair type, and they didn't work for me. I live in north Texas where the humidity is not low. I think that has quite a bit to do with it. I think if you live in a very dry area you stand a better chance of it working. When I say they didn't work, I mean not even a tiny bit, rollers in, rollers left in for 30 minutes, rollers out, NOTHING, limp hair.

They were still going strong after 3 days outside, including rain and heat. I put them in bags for some family members and myself to take home, and they are still working after a month!

These are good in dry locations only. I wouldn't think they would function as well if you're in a wet or changeable climate.

I live in Florida and the cars get hot. I haven't had any issues but it is an interesting question and I will have to look through the manual if there are any warnings about temperatures but I think these kind of machines are built to be used under extreme circumstances.

For me, they cooled until they were saturated in sweat, then they just amplified the heat. I wore mine mountain biking in 90+ degree and >70% humidity several times and they were great for the first 15 minutes or so, then I just got too hot and sweaty. If you aren't a sweaty person or they aren't getting wet other ways, you should be good.

I live in a super humid environment. They work best when they're damp and have airflow over them. They're going to be sticky and as uncomfortable as any athletic clothing would be at that humidity, but your skin is still protected. If you're at that level of humidity and in the sun, it's going to suck with or without the sleeves.

Honestly we never really used them near water, however we did use them in wet weather.They work just fine.

They would not work with just water in them. We are in Hawaii and usually only using dry or slightly wet sand. Have had no problems. They have been the best to hold down tent in high winds.

Carole,These did not work for us in outdoor pots, and we followed the instructions carefully. For what I read, they appeared to have worked for others. Perhaps it would depend on how much humidity would be in the atmosphere.. Sorry I could not be more help.. Irene

They will be fine in a wet environment. Mine have weathered countless heavy thunderstorms and strong winds with no problems. Highly recommend them.

I haven't had mine a year, but I'm from the humid SW so I may find the same issues. They should probably be kept in an a/c cool, dry place for starters, to save the self-stick surface. I did find these ear magnets stayed on better than others I purchased.

No heat, Haven't had any issues with water, they seem to handle it all just fine and I ride pretty consistently in the rain. It wires to the battery with an on/off switch. I'm sure you can wire with a controller if you get fancy with it.

You could use these to set up a misting area, but I wouldn't have it be somewhere where people have to go. Even in the peak of summer in Colorado, I would still feel wet after being under the misters for a few seconds.
