Disposable air-activated hand warmers. Open the sachet, shake it and the iron-powder contents start to warm in the air. Slip into gloves or pockets.

The listing says up to 10 hours of continuous warmth. They cost under a pound a pair and are a good cheap add-on at the checkout. They are not a heater for a room.

How to use it

You open the sachet, shake it so the iron powder starts to warm in the air, and put it in a glove or pocket.

  1. Tear open the outer wrapper and take out the warmer.
  2. Shake it to start the warming reaction in the air.
  3. Put it in a glove, mitten or pocket, not directly on bare skin for long.
  4. Wait a few minutes for it to reach full warmth.
  5. Move it around if it feels too hot, or add a layer of fabric between it and your skin.
  6. When it has gone cold, throw it away; it is single use.
Tips
  • The listing says up to 10 hours of warmth, so check how long you need it for.
  • Keep unopened ones in their wrapper, as they start working when air reaches them.
  • They warm hands and pockets; they are not a room heater.
Safety and limits
  • Do not place directly on bare skin for long, as prolonged heat can cause burns.
  • Do not use on anyone who cannot feel heat, such as numb skin, small children or someone asleep or unwell.
  • Do not cut open a used warmer, and keep the contents away from children and pets.
Please note
  • Do not apply directly to skin for long periods, can cause burns
  • Do not use while sleeping or on children or people who cannot feel heat
  • Not reusable; dispose of with household waste
