Celestron Elements rechargeable hand warmer

Anyone have any experience with them ?

If anyone is interested in one I just purchased a EnergyFlux Ellipse 5200 after returning a couple of other units. This one is nice, very good heat and run times.

Heats on both sides and a reasonable price. Decent recharge time frame and good controls. Two heat levels. Also acts as a battery pack if you need it (phone charging).

Stupid question-

 

is it something you put into your gloves?  Maybe I should just google it.

A little too big to fit into your gloves, it's a hand warmer. Did use it in Pittsburg this week end. Bad thing is the colder out it is the shorter the run (heat) time. That's with keeping it in your pocket between use. Not as happy with it now, prior test was in the house and I only considered heat output and run time.

Sort of like your own pocket thermonuclear device?  

How much run time did you get in cold temps?

Only turned it on the first time I needed it. Other trip I turned it on when we left the cabin.

Low heat which is good, about 3.5 hours.

That seems like a long time!

I believe less than their brochure states. Our average trip out is longer than that.
