Hotpod Electric Heat Pack
MPN: 26715792 reviews
This was a gift, to start with I thought the heating time was quite lengthy, but the heating time got even longer within weeks of purchase. It's quite a wait if you're in pain, not very flexible either for around the neck. Also it doesn't hold the heat for anywhere near the stated time, best to stick with the microwave one's that heat in 90 seconds.
Follow-up · This was a gift, so I did not choose it initially. Originally it heated within 5-10 minutes and the light went out, but within weeks it was taking 15-20 minutes to heat. I tried to exchange it for another as I thought it may be faulty, but the chemist just said that as the light went out eventually, that it was working correctly and said I needed to make sure it was flat, which I was doing anyway.
Purchased in at Chemist warehouse for $32.99.
Awesome electric heat pack – Hubby bought me a Hotpod electric heatpack for my chronic pain It is awesome. It heats quickly on 240v power, is soft as due to the cover provided and can be used on any part of the body. It holds its heat very well for a long time too. I used to only use it at home but now take it on trips in the caravan. We often camp offgrid but we have solar power. Had some very cold nights our last trip and we have no heating in the caravan so I charged up my Hotpod using the inverter and was comfortable sitting outside around the campfire with it snuggled into my back, or tucked under my coat to keep me warm. On the really cold nights I charged it up again (10 minutes) and put it in the foot of the bed which stayed warm all night long. And the best part is no need for hot water so no wasting water or having to heat water and risk burns. Love it, it's now one of the first things I pack into the caravan even if we're not expecting cold temperatures.
