Palm-Sized Hand Heaters

This Frostbite-Preventing Handwarmer Goes Up to 104 Degrees in 60 Seconds

— March 5, 2014 — Tech
On many winter days in the great white north, you'll find that your mittens simply won't cut it. The Handwarmer was designed to supplement your efforts to layer gloves as an electronic accessory that delivers additional comfort. A little bit shorter and stouter than a pen, this device can climb up to a cozy 104°F in just one minute, giving you something to clutch to keep your fingers from freezing.

What you'll also get with this Smart Warmer is a built-in flashlight and a clever smartphone charger. It can juice up your mobile in under 5 hours with a USB hookup. All-around, the Handwarmer is a multitasking must-have item.
