could this work? heated clothing?

Anonymous
I have noticed the new heated gloves and socks. I was wondering if it makes sense from an environmental standpoint to lower your house temperature to about 38 degrees and wear heated clothing. I could see drawbacks for people with little ones at home, maybe pets would have a hard time...

New? Heated gloves and socks and vests and hats have been around forever.

No. I am not going to do this. So who cares what you see, you don't need to think of scenarios for other people. They can think for themselves.

1. You need about 50F in the house if it freezes outside to prevent burst pipes.

2. Batteries contain toxic chemicals that are not environmentally-friendly at all, OP.

3. Batteries don't last, so you'll find yourself replacing your heated items rapidly. My husband's well-reviewed heated gloves lasted one season before they started failing. My heated vest is going on 2 years, but I'm not anticipating a long life out of it.

4. Who wants to live in outerwear in the bloody house!?!?! You're going to take a shower like that? I mean, you're crazy.

You might as well just move into a shed or parking garage.

How old are you? I want to make sure I'm not insulting a child.

You’re not supposed to sleep in the articles of clothing as they can cause burns

I live in my heated jacket at work because the room is FREEZING and it is miserable. My hands and feet still get cold and the battery only lasts 4 hours on high.

When I come home I definitely hide under a heated blanket on the couch though!

Maybe try 60 before 38

What? Hell to that. I want to be as comfortable as possibly. One day I will be dead and in the ground and that sounds awful.
