# Multi-Function Warming Gadgets USB Mouse With Infrared Heater By Bianca | Published 2008-03-10 | Unique Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/usb-mouse-infrared-heater References: [geekalerts](http://www.geekalerts.com/usb-mouse-with-infrared-heater/) & [usbfever](http://www.usbfever.com/index_eproduct_view.php?products_id=633) If you suffer from [frosty fingers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fingermittens), this is a gadget you need for sure! When plugged in, the [mouse heats up](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emsense-triple-therapy-foot-massager) to a toasty 40-45°C (104-113°F) which is beautiful for those times when you've got to rush onto your PC for an ultra speedy blog post or urgent email and don't have time to heat up your digits before. Holding a cup of hot tea while typing is a pain, and a hazard to the health of your PC if you tend to be a bit of a klutz. The **[USB Mouse with Infrared Heater](http://www.usbfever.com/index_eproduct_view.php?products_id=633)** ($22.99) switches off too, so once your fingers have defrosted, you can just disable the warming function. Just a word of warning to anyone who's plagued with those bizarre urges to pee when their hands come in contact with warm water: this might not be the best gadget if you want to ensure uninterrupted productivity. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.3/10 - Popularity: 2% | Activity: 28% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Unique](https://www.trendhunter.com/unique) > [Inventions](https://www.trendhunter.com/inventions) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Multi-function Gadgets:** Opportunity for combining multiple functions in a single device to enhance user convenience. - **Wearable Heating Technology:** Potential for integrating heating elements into wearable devices for personal comfort in cold environments. - **Energy-efficient Heating Solutions:** Demand for innovative heating technologies that prioritize energy conservation and sustainability. ### Who This Affects Most - **Consumer Electronics:** Potential for incorporating heating features into various consumer electronic products for added functionality. - **Home Appliances:** Opportunity for developing heating solutions for household appliances such as keyboards, mice, and other commonly used devices. - **Healthcare:** Potential application of heating technology in healthcare devices to provide warmth and comfort to patients during medical procedures. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Temperature-Adjusting Desk Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stratum-workplace-thermal-comfort.md) - [Warming Graphene-Enhanced Desk Mats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heated-desk-pad.md) - [Warming Power Bank Keychains](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wb-battery-powered-hand-warmer.md) - [Adorable Pebble-Shaped Warmers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cellphone-hand-warmer.md) - [Portable Heated Wrist Massagers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/power-up1.md) - [Power Bank Cup Warmers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cup-warmer.md) - [Rechargeable Magnetic Hand Warmers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magnetic-hand-warmers.md) - [Heated Posture Correction Plushies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/funbaruzu-warmers.md) - [Health-Conscious Mouse Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ergo-ergonomic-mouse-concept.md)
