| 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 |
| keep laughing |
| Home Depot sells a heated jacket |
Lol |
|
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. |
| Possible |
