    We have sold quite a few Zippo handwarmers at the store. People are quite fond of them.

    They've been around for years here, I never really considered buying one, but never really got to know them or how useful they are, so I may just shell out the cash for one at some point.

    You can use disposable warmers like "Hot Hands" etc if they are for survival kit, rather than something you are going to use regularly.

    Don't those have a shelf life? I know having one of these Zoppo heaters with you would require having lighter fluid packed as well, but that's not always a bad thing.

    I have the original version of this called the Jon-E Handwarmer in the G.I. and regular sized versions. They work very well, whenever I have it with me I hardly get cold.
    Best Wishes,

    I've got Peacocks, they are excellent. My dad and I used them when I was still a lad. They really are amazing things. Good for inside pockets too, not just hands. Keep the body really warm.

    Dug out my Hot Hands Mike - no expiry date on the pack.
