Known models of the cryo-chamber include the [[Mark VII Personal Suspension Unit]], manufactured by [[Jakubaitis Standard Systems]]. It was widely disliked by UNSC personnel because of its inferior moisture balancing; this resulted in dry, itchy skin for a day or more after awakening, known as "cryo-itch". It was later replaced by the [[Mark VIII Cryogenic Suspension Chamber]], although many older craft still use the Mark VII.<ref>'''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]]''', ''page 216''</ref> | Known models of the cryo-chamber include the [[Mark VII Personal Suspension Unit]], manufactured by [[Jakubaitis Standard Systems]].
