The Hot Seat is the World's First USB-Heated Stadium Chair

— September 5, 2018 — Tech
Anyone heading to outdoor soccer or football games this season knows how cold it can get and with the Hot Seat from Pop Design, there is an easy and high-tech way to stay warm just by sitting. This device is the world's first USB-heated stadium chair and is perfect for everyone, including parents sitting at soccer practice or fans attending the games of their favorite football team.

The Hot Seat features innovative heating technology that penetrates heat deep into the body to relax and warm muscles along with "SoftTushion" foam for the ultimate in seating comfort. The chair, which is covered with special fabric to avoid any hot spots, features three temperature controls and is mounted on a 12-inch cable for easy use. Because The Hot Seat works with any portable USB battery, users can easily keep warm from two to seven hours, depending on the selected battery strength.

At 16 inches wide with a high back, The Hot Seat provides unbelievable thigh and back support at all times - especially during those long practices or games. Additional features include welded steel for the chair’s frame, oversized zippers and a waterproof bottom so the seat can be placed in the snow or in wet areas.
