5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to light and toasty warm, February 15, 2010

This review is from: Deluxe electric ignite metal pocket hand warmer - reuseable, no mess and uses regular lighter fluid (Misc.)

The past hand warmer that I had of this type was impossible to light. I saw this electric one and was intrigued. I thought it would be just a gimmick as it is the only battery lighting one that I have ever seen. I sell cars and I am out in the cold a lot. I figured this was worth a shot. I have been very impressed. As the directions tell you, hold down the starter button for 5 seconds and it is lit. It needs no lighter and it is so easy. I love it. The lighter fluid is inexpensive and you can get more sessions on it than if it ran on batteries alone.

Pros:
No lighter needed
Easy to light
Can be started and stopped multiple times in a day easily
Very warm and toasty
Lasts a long time
Has a funnel to assist in measuring and pouring fuel

Cons:
Holes in case leave hot spots that may burn skin
You can smell the lighter fluid burning
Hasn't remained lit for 24 hours on a fill
Lighter fluid evaporates after 30 hours even when not in use
Filling can be tedious. If you go too fast it will overflow and spill lighter fluid.

This is a great hand warmer that is very economical. It is far better than the Zippo or John-E. However, in my experience, it takes it a little longer to warm up then the Zippo style, but when it does warm up it stays much warmer and for a much longer period of time. I just ordered another one. I would have ordered two the first time, but I wasn't sure of the quality of workmanship and materials, which appear to be pretty good.

I've had many of the old style catalytic handwarmers, only to have them fall apart after a few weeks of hard use.

Having a unit with an electric ignition feature was a really good idea - fewer delicate parts to fall out. I'd suggest a few more changes to make it more rugged:
make the battery door more secure - it comes off too easily.
might as well make the unit into a single piece unit and have it fill from the bottom.

These pocket heaters are going to get dropped alot. Might as well make them bullet proof, if you can.

This is a great unit, but they can make it even better!
