About me

I'm Brent Lloyd, an electrical and systems engineer. 24+ years working on electrical and technical systems: qualified electrician first, then 17+ years in the superyacht industry, most of it in charge of the electrical and technical systems (ETO/CTO).

Why this site

Wellness has been a big interest of mine for a long time, and contrast therapy is the part that stuck. I've had an ice bath almost every day for more than three years, and I follow the research on heat, cold and healthy ageing closely.

Heat is the half I want more of. A home sauna is a real investment, summers where I live are already hot, and with young kids at home, finding 15 to 20 minutes for the sauna, then the ice bath, then back again is harder than it sounds. So I've been doing the homework I'd want before spending that money: what it costs to run, what power supply it needs, where it can go and how much looking after it takes.

This site is that homework, written up properly for anyone weighing up the same decision.

What I bring to it

My guides focus on the practical side of owning a sauna or ice bath: the power supply it needs, what it costs to run, where it can go, and how to look after it. I can't own every product I cover, so every pick says how I judged it. How I choose.

How the site is paid for

Some links earn me a commission, at no extra cost to you. Commission never decides what I recommend. How this site makes money.
