Thanko's USB Heatpad Brings Relief to Aching Masses

Somewhere out there are engineers who suffer from extreme cold while at their desks – how else to explain the slew of USB-based warming products – and they’re clearly not going to rest until they come up with enough products to cover the entire body. The latest and greatest: the Hotpad, from Thanko, the people who brought you the USB Heating Slippers. The Hotpad makes use of the same technology as its USB-powered heating brethren, but unlike other USB heating products, the Hotpad is (slightly) adaptable, in that you can use its Velcro technology to strap the Hotpad around your back or your shoulder!

Actually, as USB heating products, we’re actually pretty impressed with the concept of the Hotpad: many people who sit in front of a computer all day suffer from aching shoulders and lower backs thanks to poor posture, and the Hotpad might well relieve some of the stress with its electrically-generated heat.
