BluSnap2 Aptener Mechatronics has added the highly anticipated & all new product to their BluArmor range of motorcycle gear, the BluSnap2. The Bengaluru based start up had launched the world’s 1st ever wearable cooler for existing full face helmets in the year 2018 & has now upgraded to the 2nd generation with added features & an all new design.
BluSnap2 is made in India & retails at Rs 2299/- including taxes & shipping. BluSnap2 attaches to your existing full face helmet & is lighter & smaller than its predecessor. The new design offers a modular grill with unique color hues available as add ons. The industry standard chin mount is quick & easy to install & offers excellent high speed stability. The product comes with extensions for best fit with your helmet.
BluSnap2 is aimed at offering more rider comfort than ever before. It’s more compact & powerful at the same time. To put it into perspective, BluSnap2 offers 25% better airflow thanks to improved flow dynamics & the new vent design. The dust levels are on the rise in most cities & BluSnap2 is very effective in these conditions. Cool air flowing into the helmet allows the riders to keep the visor down reducing the exposure to dust. On top of that, BluSnap2’s removable filter traps the residual dust particles. The result is a cool & dust free ride. BluSnap2 features an improved water management system, all that the user needs to do is dunk the removable filter in water for 10 seconds. A fan blows air through this replaceable anti bacterial filter, cooling the air as it flows into the helmet. As a result, the temperature inside the helmet is up to 15 degrees cooler than the ambient. Riders can also bid farewell to expensive anti fogging visor add ons using BluSnap2’s quick de fog option. The whole system is powered by a rechargeable battery that offers 10h of run time on a full charge.
BluArmor is partnering with Vega Auto, one of India’s leading helmet manufacturers to offer BluSnap2 through its large retail distribution network. The product is expected to be available at a number of helmet retail outlets soon.
2 wheeler riders today do not enjoy the same level of commuting comfort as their 4 wheeled counterparts. Features like climate control, defogging, connectivity, 360 degree vision that someone driving a 4 wheeler takes for granted today is not available for the 2 wheeler rider. BluArmor aims to address this gap by using its pioneering wearable cooling technology as the center piece of a series of bike accessories that will dramatically alter how commuting on 2 wheels is perceived. Over the past year, BluArmor has successfully launched best in class hardware & software products targeted at rider comfort & established a strong distribution chain in the domestic & international market. True to their motto of “Build in India, Made for the World”, BluSnap has now been successfully sold in over 10 countries spread over 4 continents.
BluArmor recently announced its Series A round of funding with investments from Inventus Capital Partners & Karnataka Information Technology Venture Capital Fund.
