Therm-ic PowerGloves ic 2600 battery heated mittens
Introducing a battery heated mitten with adjustable heat!
Mittens are warmer than gloves becuase you loose less heat when your fingers are together. With this mitten, you can regulate your heat with the integrated batteries and battery control panel on the back of the wrist. The innovative THERM-IC impulse processor warms your hands reliably and stimulates the blood circulation in your fingers and thumb. Temperature in the mittens can stay constant for up to 10 hours.
But how do you justify spending almost $400.00 for a pair of heated mittens?
We broke down the components for you....
- FOUR rechargeable processor-controlled, heat adjustable Lithium-ion batteries (two in each mitten.) - $120.00
- One global charger- $80.00
- Two heating elements and wire harnesses- $80.00
- One pair of quality outdoor mittens- $120.00
- Total cost = $400.00
About the batteries and charger....
You'll receive 2 light weight lithium-ion dual batteries, each weighing only 3 ounces. Charging is easy because the included charger will charge your batteries overnight and without worry of overcharging the batteries. If charged correctly, the batteries can be charged over 1,000 times. Each battery has 3 heat settings to control the amount of heat. The lower the number, the lower the heat but the batteries last longer. Keep in mind, you don't need the heat turned on all the time, just when it's needed. The global charger can be used in North America, Europe, and the UK.
The heat is warm, not hot! The Therm-ic heating is intended to keep your hands warm and not heat them. The correct temperature level and heating duration depends on various factors, such as the charge of the power cells and the external temperature. Use the below table as a rough guide.
