USB Cordless Warm Slippers

by Edwin in Office Gadgets, PC Gadgets, USB Gadgets

One of the main reservations that I have with USB warmer products is the fact that they have to remain tethered to the computer, and many a times we get up from the desk without thinking about removing the connection, hence taking down that peripheral and perhaps even breaking the USB connector in the process due to the force generated. Not so with this pair of USB Cordless Warm Slippers from Thanko, as the $42 price you pay for them are well worth it – it hooks up via USB to warm up, and once they’re fully charged, just disconnect them and walk around the home/office without getting your little piggies all frozen and shivering. The internal lithium battery is good for a fair amount of time before they require a trip back to the USB port. It comes with a light indicator to let you know when is the next trip due for a power refill, and there is an option to change the temperature between low and high levels. Inside the slippers, you will find an ultra thin aluminum heater being used. If you’re nowhere near a USB port, you can always hook it up via a power outlet.

[...] Instead, the slippers are plugged into a USB port to charge the built-in lithium battery (an LED indicator alerts you to the amount of remaining battery power). When the cord is removed, a switch on the slipper allows the user to adjust between low and high heat. There is even a temperature dial to make fine adjustments. All-in-all, a full charge should net you around 2 hours of toasty feet. Available for $42. [Thanko via Coolest Gadgets] [...]

[...] Published by Maria Mihale, on Feb 18 2009, in the categories: Gadgets I can’t wait for the summer to come! It’s not that I don’t enjoy winter very much, because I actually do, but when the temperatures fall towards 0 degrees Celsius, I instantly start trembling with cold. And I kind of hate this, because there is nothing I can do about it. Not to mention the fact that I don’t like muffling myself up. So I have no other choice but to just… freeze. This is why slippers are something like a must-have as far as I’m concerned, irrespective of the season. And the USB Cordless Warm Slippers from Thanko seem to be just what the doctor ordered for those whose feet are always cold, even if the heating is turned on. This is quite impressive, isn’t it? These slippers solve one of the most important problems implied by the products that warm through USB connection: the fact that they keep you tethered to your computer. Whenever you want to get up from your work desk for a couple of minutes, you have to be careful and remove the connection, if you don’t want to cause all sorts of unpleasant accidents. These USB heated slippers bring an impressive novelty in the spotlight: they can be connected via USB to your computer, and once the warming is done, you can remove the wires. Another great thing is that you can adjust the temperature according to your preferences. In addition, there’s a LED switch that lets you know how much battery you got left. Therefore, when the battery power is 51% or more, the LED is blue light, when the battery power is 50% or less, it’s red light, and when it’s 5% or less, the LED light is off. The slippers are equipped with a 1400 mAh Lithium-ion battery that provides up to 2 hours of operating time. You can purchase the USB Cordless Warm Slippers from RareMonoShop.com for $42.00.
