Re: heated sock!!
Dang.  Who all had one of these things?  Dad had one he never used and I was too young to figure out how to make it work.  With my hands freezing all the time in knitted mittens, I asked him why he never used it.  He said because it was dangerous.

My dad had 1 of those.  They were as bad as the old zipper lighters, leaking fluid . :confused:

Re: heated sock!!
I lit a fart once in my skivvies after a bomb session with Schmidt Big Mouths and split pea soup. Talk about heated underwear!  :shocked:

Buddy of mine had one of these Jon - E handwarmers when I was a kid. Usually something got lit on fire that shouldn't have after he filled it.

Oh heck ya, all of us young guys had those Jon-E Hand warmers.  It was fun messing with lighter fluid and then starting them and putting them in your mitten.  What could go wrong.   :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

Re: heated sock!!
Back in Jr. High we had a string of outdoor hockey practices and the temp didn't matter.  Pops buys me a pair of battery operated heated socks to try,  batteries musta been bad cuz that was the only time some of my toes turned black...

Our fun with buying big cans of lighter fluid may have even got us into lighters which may have gotten us into smoking cigs.  The Jon-E was a gateway tool.   :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

Re: heated sock!!
Back a few years ago I had one of the Zippo type hand warmers. If I remember correctly, it did work ok but was a bit messy with having to add fluid and all. I also had electric socks for the cold days of snowmobiling. Probably didn't have alkaline D cells back then so they didn't last too long.

The warden bought me a pair of those battery socks for ice fishing way back when. Like you said, the batteries don't last long.
