12 volt mattress pad warmers
A couple years ago there was a thread on this forum about 12 volt mattress pad warmers, and as it turned out, nobody was making them anymore in any sizes except very small. Those of us with full-size or larger mattresses were out of luck.
I've just discovered that ElectroWarmth has them available again at http://electrowarmth.com/shop/
We use a 120 volt one at home and love it. The room temperature can drop down in the 50s and we stay toasty under the covers. But that mattress pad warmer will not work on a MSW inverter, so we either have to stick to shore power when camping where we need that heat, or we have to run the generator all night (nope, not gonna happen).
I sprang for the full-size queen pad with dual controls, and while it was spendy at $202 with shipping, I think it'll be worth it. It draws a max of 3 amps, and will save us on propane on those cold nights when we don't need to run the furnace to stay warm in bed.
I dunno why they reintroduced them, or for that matter why they discontinued them earlier, but TODAY they are available again. Get yours while the gettin' is good.
