To be fair i dont think many people had an issue with the concept - i think it was the fact it was gas powered!

im not sure we do .... It wasnt the concept so much but the fact his version was run from a gas bottle which differs to the Nash one which is battery ..... I actually think if someone can master heated elements in clothing and sleeping by battery it is a game changer and i would welcome with open (and warm lol) arms

Didn't Avid get there first? Not that it matters. It's not the first man on the moon is it. The only similarity is; does it work? Will it kill you?. Was it worth the investment?

Yep Avid i think were one of the first to bring anything like this to market, however effective/reliable battery heated clothing/bedding is a pretty big step forward (alright, not as momentus as the moon landing lol)

These have probably been around for years on some china tat site, but now with carp tax.
Who'd want to sleep with a red hot combustible lithium battery pack

Some of these lads must have dog ugly birds... Warm clothes and bag, or go home.

This was me, in last weeks storm, then down to 2°c, flask and butties, night fishing sat on a chair. Kids these days

..... Medal alert!

Nothing impressive about being uncomfortable or cold .... I started with a 45" brolly and an argos bedhchair so have been there done it, and see little reason not to be comfortable (or at least warm) nowadays .... Im not a fan of many things in modern carp fishing but keeping warm isnt one of them. Bring it on I say

Don't get the purpose of an heated blanket. I'd have thought there would be a market for a 5 season blanket though.

If you stay dry a hot water bottle is all you need. Nash will even sell you one with a cover for about £25. Or get a nice big one with cover of your choice for a lot less elsewhere.

As Halfcentury says below, just put a hot water bottle in the bottom of a sleeping bag job done, never saw the need for an electric blanket.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
