Gamechanger for cooler weather days - Ignik Heated Pad Covers

Great for campers who carry a lot of power (lithium or 12v battery) or have access to shore power, or on patios where there is A/C power and can convert it to 12v DC power. Once you figure out how to power this, it completely changes the amount of time that can be spent comfortably outdoors as temperatures slip below 70F in the shoulder season or as the sun sets and the cold of night sets in. While gathering around a campfire definitely warms campers up, getting heat to "warp around" was always a problem. 'Going back inside' whether that was simply packing it in and returning to the inside of an RV, tent, sleeping bag, or just going home was the solution to this 90% of the time. A slight improvement came with insulated camping chairs and loveseats, and that may be a great solution for many of us. For even more extended enjoyment of outdoor spaces when it gets colder, adding these pads to the back of chairs does wonders. At only 23 Watts, a 230 Watt battery pack would power this for 10 hours on max, however by using lower settings the heat could last even longer. Due to the power saver feature however the pad only heats for 90 minutes and then has to be turned back on to start another 90 minute session. While this works for sitting around the campfire outside, its other use which is to put it inside of a sleeping bag to add 23 watts of heat while sleeping is only good for when first getting into the bag or if waking up cold and wanting to heat back up, or for heating up when first waking up in the morning. Other Ignik pads that are specifically for sleep have 10 hour timers, however this one does not have that settable timer feature. Overall a great, lightweight, packable, portable way to stay warm while relaxing in a camp chair, or for heating up a sleeping bag at the edges of sleep.
