Electrowarmth Bed Warmers

[Juneaudave]

Is it me or did they stop making the larger double, queen and king 12v bed warmers? I'm not seeing them on the net..

Dave...I would contact them. The site still has specs for the larger sizes

[Juneaudave]

Hummm...I checked with Electrowarmth and they did stop making the larger sizes. If you want one, you will have to find it from a supplier with left over stock.

I found all four sizes, in an ebay store. Just put "electrowarmth" into the ebay search bar.

Are these any good? You sound like you're familiar with them. I've been trying to decide if we want a heated mattress pad, or an electric blanket. I've been looking and looking and just can't decide. I do like the way these are "fitted".

[Juneaudave]

I'm not familiar with them but I think they have gotten excellent reviews in the past. I've sort of figured out that my heating requirements are very minimal. With the small space in the Tear and a good sleeping bag, you don't need much except to get the chill off. I worried about heating alot when building, but now that I've used my trailer some, it doesn't seem like a big deal at all.

My bed warmer and I got divorced, and I haven't found a suitable replacement, either.

I have used the electrowarmth for several years and have found it to be an excellent product. The fact that the heat rises from beneath you traps more under the comforter and keeps both your front and backsides warm. I have used in the teardrop down to 15 degrees F. Hope this helps.

I agree the electrowarmth is a good product. And I would have one in a heartbeat...

A backup plan, if they are no longer available, and you have the room, is to get a forced air furnace.

The queen sized electrowarmth uses 9.2 amps per hour. The forced air furnace uses 1.5 amps per hour.

Here's what Q did.

The Ebay search on "Electrowarmth" turns up the 115 v model. The Electrowarmth comes in both 115 v and 12 v so if you are wanting to run your bunk warmer off your battery, the 12 v might be better. A search on Ebay of "bunk warmer" will show you the 12v models....Dave

Thank you! Our LG has 12v and electrical outlets. Right now we have always camped with electricity, but you never know when we will want to camp in a primitive site. That would be nice to be able to plug into the 12V. We can use the 12V, whether we have electricity or not.

Jan and I got both for the tear, don't know why now. We put the 115 in the house for this winter. If you have a converter all you need is the 12v one. And it will run all night on low with just the battery, if you can take that much heat. We have a double sleeping bag in the tear. We turn it on high just before we go to bed, then turn it down to low after we get in. And most times just turn it off for the night. It seems to warm you up fasert being under the bag. So when you start feeling cold just turn it on for a little bit. The lowest temp. was -11. We just got the tear last year so we did some back yard camping in it. The only thing wrong was the moisture inside the tear. We have an exhaust fan, and a small 12v one we use now and that takes care of the problem. Hope this helped, Erv

Just a bump...Per the thread, Electrowarmth no longer makes the 12 v queen size bunkwarmer, so if you want one, you need to order it from a retailer that still has them in stock. I ordered one today from Backwoods Solar. They idicated that they still had some of the larger sizes in stock but they are going quickly...thereafter, they will only carry the 36 x 60 inch.
