Bought some last year around this price for this winter, quite a blessing at work these last two frosty mornings stuffing them in my gloves while handling metal tools and machinery. Seems to be on special at coles too
CamelCamelCamel.
There is an expiry date printed on the package in the photo, so I assume it may not be as effective after that date.
My wife swears by the rechargeable ones you get off Amazon or Ebay if anyone is looking at other options - OCOOPA was the brand I think.
I use my phone after reading the news for 10 minutes.
NQR had some last year. Tiny little things, but they work, and were $2 each.
You're talking about the sodium acetate ones yeah?
How do they handle the extreme cold? Going to Finland at the end of the year and would be nice to use something less wasteful but worried the batteries might pack it up from the cold when not being used.
Wife and kid used them in Euro winter last year (Christmas river cruise, so Netherlands, Germany, etc) and had no issues. Obviously not as cold as further north, but it is what they are designed for so I wouldn't think you would have any problems.
Pretty wasteful…
This brand isn't great. They don't heat up that well and only last a short time. If you see the Little Hotties brand on sale, they are so much better. I use them for camping and winter car meets.
Sustainability, what's that?
It's just iron powder
Oh I didn't know anywhere else outside of Daiso that sold this kind of thing 😅 ホッカイロ
Darn back up to $49 a box

Do these expire? I go camping a few times a year so a 24 pack would last me years but curious if they stop working after expiry
