Winter Tip : HotHands Hand & Feet Warmers

[@SurvivalLilly]

Really awesome, I need to get my hand on one of these feet warmers. I got cold feet all the time. Happy New Year! Lilly

[@gregoryshorts700]

Survival Lilly i see why , your in much colder climate then us southern boy . Now are you the real survival lilly ? If so i am a subcriber to your restricted channel. Cant wait til your next video.

[@Cowchode]

@Survival Lilly It's much colder where you are! The toe warmers are nice. Stay Warm & Happy New Year Don

These are really useful, dont miss Amazon discount>> amzn.to/2ubP9Zi

[@SkinnyMedic]

These would also make a great addition to your vehicle first aid kit!

[@ordinaryeverydayguy2593]

If you only use them for a couple hours, put them in a zip lock bag and they can be used again and will fire right back up when you take them out of the zip lock bag.

[@SensiblePrepper]

Thanks for the info. I'll have to test it.

[@furkids4ever]

I was just wondering about that - or if you didn't shake up alot, would it regenerate with more shaking later.

[@turtleman5111]

I just bought some for hunting. Lets say I put them in a bag, how many uses will I get? No sense in throwing them away, if they still work! It says theres water in them; maybe water eventually evaporates?

[@Tsch6373]

@@turtleman5111 just put them in a zip - lock sandwich bag. Squeeze out the air. No need to be concerned with what's in it. It'll rejuvenate next time you need it. Simply remove it from the bag and put it in your pocket. Too much exposure to the air will cause it to die early. It will get warm in your pocket. 😉

[@Tsch6373]

@@furkids4ever you don't really need to shake it. Just put it in your pocket.

[@mnguy98]

These are extremely helpful up here in Minnesota. We've gotten colder than Antarctica at times (seriously), and these hand and foot warmers really are a life saver. They're also a really good addition to a first-aid kit if you end up dealing with frostbite or hypothermia. And for $5, you really can't go wrong with something like this.

[@abhishekdev258]

[@Tsch6373]

You can extend the life of these if you're not going to be using them for the full 8 to 10 hours by putting the pair of warmers in a zip-lock sandwich bag, squeeze out the air, zip it closed. I have gotten a week out of one pair since I go out for an hour in the morning to walk with my cat. Come in, put them in the bag for this evening's walk of about the same duration. So far, have gotten 6 days! I keep them in my jacket pockets, too much exposure to the air will cause them to die out earlier. Stay warm out there folks! I keep a healthy supply of these in my car's trunk.

[@Nilsosmar]

Great idea!

[@mullman71]

Here in Wisconsin that is the best $5 you'll ever spend. Cheap and easy to store in the glove box of any vehicle and a real life saver if you find yourself needing to walk to find help in -30 temps.

[@xxsomaligamerxx2148]

I got It 1 pound from Tesco's?😂😂

[@scotthill6807]

Here's another use. You can put a hand warmer under your Iso-butane/propane backpacker fuel canisters when camping in cold weather. That will warm it up so it functions properly. Thanks Sootch .

[@SensiblePrepper]

Thanks for the tip Scott!

[@BDAILY365]

These saved me many times during those long, wet, windy, and cold shifts standing outside all day. I put 2 in each pocket, and they last for about 6 hours. I rub them in my hands when I need them to get hotter. I have them everywhere in my car now.

[@shack456]

I was a mailman for 36 years and I used these every winter.I would stuff one in the palm of my hands exactly the same way shown in video.They are good to have around in my car or backpack,where ever they are handy.

[@SensiblePrepper]

Good to hear your experience. Thanks Shack!

[@NoblesTx]

Used these the other day , I work on the railroad and it gets cold kicking rocks in the wind all day , they work great. Thanks for the videos man!

[@oldtimerlee8820]

Yes, toss some in go & get-home bags. Then, stash some more in the utility room. Over the last week, power failures have been common along the eastern seaboard, with snow from Florida to Canada. Especially useful for those who do not have fireplaces, kerosene/propane space heaters in winter grid down situations. Thanks for sharing.

[@SensiblePrepper]

Thanks for the info! Stay warm Lee.

[@Humbirdhippo5475]

Thank you for actually opening them and showing us how they look and work!

[@AirForceAce3571]

Yup these things are fantastic! I use them when deer hunting and it makes life much better when sitting in a tree stand on a cold day! I keep hand warmers inside my gloves and foot warmers on my toes and they make a big difference in comfort. Nothing ruins a hunt faster than cold feet! Highly recommended from me too!

[@SensiblePrepper]

Thanks for the comment. Good to hear real experiences.

[@kikayme8134]

I used these on my trip to Iceland last week. It was nice and toasty during my tour of the geysir.

[@mr.shawneemominee6228]

I use the toe warmers in winter for work. I find them uncomfortable on the bottom of my foot so I place them on top of the toes and they work great. Just my thoughts

[@SensiblePrepper]

Good point. I didn't have any issues yesterday but will have to try them on top of my toes. Thanks

[@trynsurviven2440]

I found that the toe warmers work better for me placed on top of my toes. Walking with them under my toes the powder will bunch up feels like a rock in your shoe.

[@racciacrack7579]

I assume they are probably for when your sleeping

[@odessaclayton8134]

@@racciacrack7579 no they arent meant to be used while sleepinh

[@NM-sg7fb]

@@racciacrack7579 nope, the packaging says it’s not for sleeping. Most likely because they can get really hot, and sleeping plus the hand warmer can be a fire hazard, and you can burn yourself while you’re asleep.

[@Davidow1]

The hand warmers work great inside your boots as well if you put on a thin sock, place the warmer on top of your toes and then put on another sock to fixate it. :) Found some on sale at $0,5 a pair - bought 40 of them! Will never leave home without them.

[@proteus371]

When I watched this, I had a Hothands warmer in my pocket for 24hrs, I crunched up the lumps, gave it a shake, and WOW, it started warming again ! Not as warm but still worked !

[@UnderGr0undErnie]

Thank you, finally someone says how its activated, 'air activated' well done, good job.

[@eetee2]

These and other similar ones are great during the winter. Usually my fingers are freezing while hiking etc, and with these it's easy to keep them warm.

[@ejames6431]

Believe it or not I had hand warmers in my car for years and never knew how to use them. I now know a person should practice and know how to use all their equipment.

[@blazinreelz]

Thank you for this video, when I film football games my hands get cold and stiff while trying to operate my camera, and I need them to be relaxed. I've never used this product before today thank you! 🔥🔥

[@yadjekim]

I use these all the time. I buy a bunch of them at the beginning of winter. I recently injured my wrist, so I used one lightly wrapped in an ACE bandage around my wrist, to help it heal. Thanks, Don! Stay safe!

[@SensiblePrepper]

Thanks Yadjekim! Good idea using them as a heat source for an injury.

[@yadjekim]

Have you heard if we're ever going do another prepper get-together, like the one we had up in Traveler's Rest? I really enjoyed it! Good people.

[@deanhoskins4844]

Awesome video...I've been using these for bout 4 years now..I've got em in my truck my go bag...at work...In my garage...my range bag..As a matter of fact I just got in from work and I haven't taken the toe warmers off I put on at 4 pm and they're still heating..2 years ago I had the full blown flu with the body aches and chills so I used the toe warmers and body warmers while layed on the couch and it helped. it's supposed to be 0 to 2 above here tonight so I'll be using them tomorrow no doubt😨

[@SensiblePrepper]

Thanks Dean, I hadn't thought about using them for the chills. That's a great idea!

[@sammyhooligan803]

Yes, these are perfect for cold temps. Even that they are disposable /one time use they can make a huge difference than with out them.

[@AgiDaKinG]

I just thought of another great winter survival tool, Milwaukee has their heated hoodies/jackets that run off the same 12volt battery system their tools use. You take your 12volt battery, connect it to your power source adapter and then plug it into the jacket and tuck the battery away in the pocket. While this isn't anything new, the cool part is that Milwaukee redesigned their power source adapter to where you can recharge your battery from the adapter itself, so you can take your favorite solar recharging tool to recharge your battery for constant heat. Plus the batteries are compact enough that you could keep several fully charged in a bugout bag

[@SmileItsRome]

Car broke down this morning on the way to work (28 degrees outside). Had a set of these in my B.O.B, took a lil bit to heat up, but worked great. Will be buying more!

[@SensiblePrepper]

Great to hear you had them handy! Stay warm brother!

[@maninacan.6285]

I use these for ice fishing. And they really make your cold day more comfortable, along with a shot of brandy . LOL

[@lilminishlomit]

Thank you for the tips. We are in Canada and it can get brutally frigid LOL but I have never tried one of these. I should get some. I also got some tip off that this coming winter is going to be bad and even deadly. May God have mercy on us. God bless you and America!

[@2manyhobbies76]

Good tip Sootch. Sitting in a tree stand all day in northern Michigan I've found the whole insoles model to be great for my feet. Also the body warmers with adhesive work great to keep your core warm. One other tip is the IcyHot back and neck pads (same type) feel awesome on the back of your neck when you are cold.

[@SensiblePrepper]

Thanks for the tips! Maybe I need to do an expanded video : )

[@rejoicemultimediaimages]

It is helpful to see the difference between hand warmer and body warmer by showing the bags along with what's inside thru your video. Thanks.

[@slimeface7854]

The hand warmers are a great asset at such an affordable price. The duration is very good and makes good for an item to our homeless seen frequently at trucks stops across America

[@tommyc5750]

I have been using my Zippo hand warmers. Just awesome. My friend told me his grandpa had belt that would place one over each kidney and warm your whole body. Found one for sale on eBay.

[@SensiblePrepper]

The Zippos work great. It's a little more preparation but good to go. Thanks Tommy

[@tomm2812]

Sootch, I use both the toe and hand warmers...great. When shooting I wear fingerless gloves stick a mega warmer on the back of hand (where the arteries run close to surface) then over mitts (with hole for trigger finger) with a hand warmer dropped in Palm area. Toe warmers and if just dam bitter cold here in the Great Lakes State I will put a full foot warmer in my mucklucks or winter boots. Feet stay warm about 7 hours. Hands longer. Down side is cost $6 to $10 bucks for a day. I also write date on individual package and use them up that year. Any that are in my hunt pack or jacket get used first the following fall. Best

[@SensiblePrepper]

Thanks for he experiences Tom!

[@tomm2812]

SensiblePrepper --Sootch, thanks for the reply. What I do with my mucklucks is place 2 of the unopened foot warmers between each side of each boot and the liners. So I have four heaters ready without having to look for em, they sit there even when hiking about...if i lose my pack I have a day and night to figure it out . I also store 2 extra hand warmers in each of my winter mitts. Minus 20°F minus wind chill last night, balmy 7F this am. Best

[@mclyker]

Use them at the bottom of my sleeping bag during elk hunting season. Nice and toasty.

[@SensiblePrepper]

That's a great idea! Thanks Matt!

[@laserone5627]

out here in az its nice and warm baby!!!!!! bought these last year for a camping trip they worked so well real life savers

[@patriotprepper3878]

I picked up some of the grabber brand Mega warmers and went to use one and it barely got warm after 30 minutes and I shook it put it in a pocket put in my glove blew on it everything I could think of now I have almost 40 of them left. The hot hands I have used before and love them they work great. I keep them in my BOB, in my car and my get home bag.

[@kyles9625]

One time back in elementary school, I ripped one of these open and it looked like a bag of coffee grinds exploded on my desk.

[@KaylynnStrain]

I have also used the full length insoles in the past, they also work great

[@SensiblePrepper]

I haven't seen those but will have to test some. Thanks Kaylynn

[@suecollins3246]

I had a reusable one. You dropped it in a hot kettle until it was liquid. When it started to cool down you found the little round metal thingy in it and popped it. It was immediately crystallise and get really warm. For quite a while. Then later on you drop it back into the kettle. It was a wonderful little dingus.

[@AZBADBOYz]

They also have large ones that you can stick to your body. I used these and the toe ones this week while doing inspections all day in Louisiana. If they can keep an Arizona boy warm in southern cold, they will work for anyone!

[@SensiblePrepper]

I'll have to check out the large ones. Thanks AZ

[@tnpsheepdog3289]

Didn't know about the body warmers, thanks!

[@kagesurvival2929]

I keep them in my gear and B.O.B. but they are also in all of my medical kits to aid in helping treat shock all year around. I also use them to keep my camera and other electronic gear going in cold winter weather. Thanks again Sooch. graet info.

[@michaelparkin8216]

Lol walmart! End of season i got 10 bulk packs for $2 a bag....i work outside all year so they are real nice when its -10f out... the boady warmers are nice in a queen size bed, 2 hand warmers in a sleeping bag in the foot box

[@annathegrace3116]

God bless America! Thank you so much for your review!!

[@chuckoaks6756]

My coat has zipped pockets in the kidney section. If you can keep a mass of your core warm, the rest will stay warm due to blood flow. Nice idea for working out side or sitting on the deer stand all day. My wife stashes them everywhere. We had the -30 here and several days bellow zero the entire day. If you want a safe zone just stay here for the winter. Even the dumbest crook won't go out in this.

[@mickenoss]

Gonna look these up. Fed up of hugging my engine at every red light on my way to work, then reviving my fingers with hot coffee when I get there. 😂

[@FOGHORNNC]

Used these for years.. Wife and daughter said the "toe warmers" were fine when you were sitting but actually hurt their feet when they were walking... Will try them on the top of their to see if that helps...

[@sean6077]

i keep a pack of the hand warmers, toe warmers, and body warmers in my truck during the cold months. and i keep several of each (in center console, in glove box, and in my go bag that stays in my truck). thankfully i've never had to use them. but if i ever get stranded when it's really cold, i have them if needed.

[@jerryjohnsonii4181]

I use hand warmers, but i didn't know how they work. So thanks for the knowledge Sootch00 and long live the republic Bro.

using in winter storm survival kit for part of my heat. Are a must with power outages in freezing weather

[@myrthmaker]

I’m a huge fan of these things. They work great when standing watch for 5+ hours where you are usually pretty stationary for the duration of the watch. I like using the hand warmers on the backside of my hands inside the gloves and the inside of my ankles. I have found placing them there helps the blood circulate the warmth. I have never used the super warmers but will have to give them a try.

[@backdraft916]

To help warm your body, buy a bicycle jersey that have the pockets in back. Slip the warmer into the back pocket. It is then sitting over your kidneys and will move the heat through the body via the bloodstream.

[@jeanetteswalberg6166]

The body size one would be great to toss in the bottom of your sleeping bag if you are winter camping. I didn't know they had that size.

[@beactivelife]

These are great, I just bought a big box of them myself. They really do last a long time.

I had some of these unopened for a couple years, went to use them and they didn't get warm. Contacted the company they were more than happy to replace them at no charge and asked I send the old ones back so they could find out why they failed.

[@SensiblePrepper]

That's good to know. Thanks

[@outbackeddie]

I had the same problem but I didn't call the company. I just figured they go bad after a few years. Anyway, my new policy is to toss the old ones and buy new ones every year.

[@ecrcom5210]

They should have an expiration date listed on the individual packages; at least mine did...

[@RottenCuber]

Useful for speedcubing

[@tylerwelty2059]

If you put the hand warmer on the back of your hand inside the glove, you can get it closer to your knuckles, thus keeping your fingers warmer

My question is , since we don’t get the toe warmers and the body warmers ….can I use a tape and stick the hand warmers to my foot just like how you showed to slide it in the boots before I summit or will it hurt or give me blisters ? …can I also slide the hand warmers in my wind breaking thick jacket as so that it can keep me warm thanks so much for this video here ….

[@ARCTERYXSWEATSHOP]

I LOVE THESE THINGS

[@ultraclassic01hd]

On the small hand warmers:.....If you mess with them to much they will start to have some of the activating chemicals come out of the seam. I now put some tape over the seam to make sure I do not end up with a pocket full of the activating chemicals. What I mean by messing with them is that one has a tendency to squeeze the packets when they are in your pocket or hand muff.

[@SensiblePrepper]
