Ocoopa Rechargeable Hand Warmers

£39.99

I love the colder months with leaves falling and the possibility of snow, however, one thing I hate about this time of year is always having such cold hands! There is nothing worse than going for a jog or walking the dog and not being able to feel your fingers. Often, I’ve opted for those hand warmers that you snap to produce heat in your pocket but these rarely last long and often don’t defrost my hands adequately before they stop working. Therefore, when I first heard of rechargeable hand warmers I was intrigued – how could something that looks like a portable charger help me to keep my hands warm?

The Ocoopa Rechargeable Hand Warmers come as two separate pieces which felt cold to the touch when first opening thanks to their sleek aluminium exterior. Each hand warmer has a small button on the flat side, which once pressed turns on the hand warmers. After turning them on, I was shocked that in just a few seconds they were already heating up in my hands. The warmers can be connected via the strong magnetic connection between them to make one complete heating block or can be used individually to warm your hands in your pockets or to share a hand warmer with a friend. I was immediately impressed with how warm they were getting and realised that you can press the button again to adjust between 4 different heat settings. These range from 100-135°F and were perfect for warming up my cold hands on the way to work.

The hand warmers’ techy exterior makes them a sleek addition to your everyday life to warm your hands. However, they also actually double as two mini 5000mAh portable chargers. This means not only can you heat your hands well, but should it not be that cold, or you need to quickly charge your phone, you can pop open the silicone port cover and plug in your device via the USB or USB-C ports. This innovative design makes the device multi-purpose and a perfect addition to your bag all year round.

I think these would be perfect for kids on their way to school in the morning as I remember just how cold those winter months were standing at a bus stop before school, or for someone who is always outside working or walking. The hand warmers can easily be charged, thrown in a bag and pulled out when your hands get cold. Then, should you need to charge your phone, you have two mini portable chargers with you at all times – perfect for you and a friend!

I was super impressed with the Ocoopa Rechargeable Hand Warmers, each one heated up fast, delivered good warmth whilst my hands were in my pockets, and even helped to save me when my phone was dying on a few occasions. These would make the brilliant stocking stuffer this Christmas!

Pros:

• Sleek stylish unit that is easy to throw in your bag for hand warming and device charging needs
• Quick heating in only a few seconds – and quick cool down too
• Good portable charging function

Cons:

• The shape of the hand warmers is great for being compact, but I’d like it if they were a little wider to deliver heat across a wide area of your hand
