    Question Zippo Hand Warmer

    First time I've seen this style of hard-warmer, that just doesn't seem right! Fire in your pocket? Madness!


    Anyone out there got one? Care to enlighten us further on it's workings?

    They're brilliant and get quite hot (you have to keep it in its pouch). Filled-up, will keep hot for a good twelve hours (even longer!!!). Works by 'catalytic convection', so no actual flame. You'll find one in my 'Fletch's Bug Out Bag' thread.

    Don't you worry mate. Indeed, one day you'll be content with all your possessions. Might not be now, but soon.

    I bought one for my wife last year. It's a bit of a pain to fill using the supplied plastic bottle but it works a charm. I may be slightly overfilling it but it stays hot for hours, well over the advertised 12 hours. You need to keep it in the supplied felt pouch as it can get very hot. Get one for each pocket I say!
