Electric heatingWarm your handsdevice

Commonly known as "electric warmer" and "hand warmer", it is mainly divided into two categories.

Hard-shell hand warmers:Solid energy storage substances such as glass wool are heated by heating wires, and heat is absorbed and insulated inside the appliance to slowly release the heat.

Flexible hand warmer:It is divided into:Heating wire type heating and electrode typeHeatingBoth. Among them, the electrode heating method is usedThe internal heating elements are not protected by double insulation, and there is a risk of electric shock in the event of a failure of basic insulation or leakage of liquid. The national standard expressly prohibits the use of this electrode heating method, but there are still some small manufacturers and small businesses that produce and sell such products, and should pay attention to identification.

Shop for:Choose an electric hand warmer produced by a regular manufacturer, with a certificate of conformity, complete nameplate identification, and a test report. It is not advisable to buy an electric hand warmer that looks cute and looks like a toy, as such products will attract children to play, and children lack the common sense of electricity and may cause dangerous accidents when playing.

Do not buy or useElectrode type flexibleHand warmersIt can be judged by hand pinching, and if it is an electrode type, it can be distinguished that the heating element inside is a base with two rods. If it is a heating wire type hand warmer, the heating element in the bag should be a mesh structure or a U-shaped tubular structure.

usePlace the hand warmer on a heat-resistant object while chargingIt is strictly forbidden to charge it on the bed. The charging time should not be too long, when charging, people should not leave for a long time, and do not warm up while charging, because the collision during use is easy to cause a short circuit inside the hot water bottle. Once leakage or excessive expansion is found, immediately cut off the power supply and stop using it.

yearsThe warranty period provided by hand warmer product manufacturers is generally 1 to 3 yearsPlease check the status of the product regularly according to the requirements of the manual. Warm baby

Warm baby is easy to use and is deeply liked by consumers, especially female friends. In fact, the temperature of the warm baby is very high, so beware of low temperature burns.

Its heating principle is to convert the electrical energy in the lithium battery into heat energy through the flexible heating film.

As a new thing, there is no corresponding standard to standardize, and it is inevitable that some manufacturers will take advantage of the heat of the scarf to fill the number, not only the quality is not up to par, but also there are potential safety hazards. As a direct contact product, it is necessary to pay attention to the prevention of burns during daily use.
