Heat is binary so lower setting pulse the heat on and off. Surprised by just how well these work. Did not expect charge to last as long as it does, or for the pebbles to get as hot as they do.
I very, very seldom give 5-star reviews.
These hand warmers, however, deserve one. They are the right size, they hold their charge for hours, they are easy to use, they warm my hands effectively and they have survived being dropped onto the hard pavement at least twice in the fortnight I have had them.
These little handwarmers pack a big punch. I only need heat setting number one as theyre a bit too hot for me on three and they heat up in seconds.
I found the hand warmers easy to set up and use. I like the fact that you can either use them as separate units, or clip them together to hold as one piece – the clipping mechanism works well.
They are solid pieces, without being too heavy. It was a comfortable experience holding them. The compactness means that they would fit into a pocket or a bag.
The heating element works quickly, and can get really hot at the highest setting, so care should be taken with this (there are of course lower temperature settings).
Recharging the devices are straightforward with the included cable, and as they’re USB-C compatible, you could use any suitable adapter to charge them.
Overall, a good value set.
I was surprised at how small these handwarmers are. I have included a 50p in the pictures to provide some idea of scale. I have a couple of other sets of handwarmers – I do suffer from very cold hands in the winter months, even wearing gloves, and having more than one set means I always have a backup without having to wait for a charge.
The handwarmers came with a nearly full charge, but as with most electrical items, they always suggest charging to full capacity before first use, which is what I did. The charging cable is USB (no plug included), but has a dual connector so you can charge both at the same time, which is a nice touch.
The handwarmers slide/click together and seem to stay put, once joined. Because of their compact size, they are fairly lightweight and easy to carry in a pocket to pockets. There is no carry pouch for them, which would have been nice, so they might get a bit scratched if you put them in a bag with other bits and bobs jiggling round.
They have just one button to switch them on (long press) and then the same button is used to cycle through the 3 heat settings. Each unit has 3 small lights – when cycling through the heat settings, 1 light = low heat, 2 = medium and 3 = high. When you switch them on they heat up rapidly and seem to maintain an even heat. I would recommend you only use the high setting with gloves, as I found them a bit uncomfortable to hold just in my hands. To be honest though, even for a long stretch holding them (without gloves) on the low setting I found them a little too hot, so just a word of caution.
They keep a good charge and when left on the middle setting, they lasted about 8-9 hours, which is more than enough for a few dog walks. To check the charge you just double-click the button and the three lights will become a battery indicator.
I think they are a bit pricey though at 35.99, which drops my rating a bit, but if you have the money, you won’t be disappointed with your purchase.
