Maybe the AC was not working that day; when I was there in 2014 it was comfortable there.

I would think some helmet exhaust fans would have helped alot.

They look great. Do the headsets actually communicate between the suits or externally?

That was the plan originally, but we thought that we wouldn't need to do that. Come to find out when wearing the suit we can hear everybody else just fine but nobody can hear us. So in the future we'll be adding mics and speakers and walkie talkies.

The heat was pretty manageable, it was the weight of the suit that got to us. Its about 40lbs total and a lot of it is sitting on 2 points on the shoulders.

There are 2 exhaust fans in the front of the helmet, 2 fans in the back blowing air into the helmet and one in the pack pushing air up to the helmet as well.
