A Hot Pack yields almost an hour of steady, finger-reviving warmth once activated. Or if you're not too keen on showing the cold getting to you, just leave it in a pocket close to your body for a blast of secret, relatively-high temperature pleasure.

The concept is very simple. Inside the tough plastic shell of a Hot Pack is a thick, clear liquid and a small metal disc. 'Click' the disc and you start a chemical reaction which heats the liquid to a toasty 130F in about five seconds. That's very fast.


Once warm, the Hot Pack remains at a constant temperature for roughly 25 minutes before losing its power of heat. After use, the liquid will have solidified, and all that's required to regenerate a Hot Pack is to heat it in a pan of boiling water until the solid turns back into a liquid. Boil-in-the-bag hotness magic.

There are plenty of times one of these will come in, ahem, handy. On the touchline, on the journey to work, those romantic winter walks accompanied by classic hits during movie montages and many more. Quite simply, warm hands are better than cold ones. Ask any man who's had to drop 'em and cough...

visitor avatar My hotpacks worked the first time and they didn't work the second time :(.
Karen, Cwmbran - 10th April 2011
Firebox says: Sorry to hear that Karen, drop us an e-mail to info@firebox.com and we will see what we can look into it for you.
visitor avatar I bought these hand warmers as a Christmas present and we were very disappointed, they worked fine the first time and when we boiled them to reuse them one stayed hard and hasn't worked since and the other stays as a gel and also doesn't work complete waste of my £5. 99, I wouldn't have bought them if I knew you couldn't re-use them!
Emma, Somerset - 28th December 2010
Firebox says: Sounds like they might be faulty Emma, drop us an email via info@firebox.com and we'll check it out.
visitor avatar Fantastic product, was very skeptical about them working effectively but they worked a treat. Snapped the metal and was in amazement with the chemical reaction as the heat was instantaneous!
Peter, Bolton - 13th December 2010
visitor avatar Bought sets of these and now its the cold weather they only last about 10-15 minutes before going cold not ideal in the cold weather very disappointing :-( !!!
Jonathon Lincoln, Middlesbrough - 8th December 2010

visitor avatar Amazing! Brilliant presents especially in the cold snow!!!! I even tried putting them in my slippers it was heaven!!!! But yes, wonderful gifts to give.
Bethan Kelly, Ramsbottom - 5th December 2010
visitor avatar Are they about the right size to put in gloves to keep hands warm?
Anna, GB - 4th December 2010
Firebox says: If the gloves aren't too tight, we can't see why not.
visitor avatar These are great they warm up soo fast. Theyre amazing in this cold weather we are having. I was wondering I noticed there is 2 more designs on the back of the packet will you be getting them in?
Jessica, Middlesbrough - 29th November 2010
Firebox says: No, unfortunately not.
visitor avatar I bought this for doin the cross country, worked brill.
Adam Tremlett, Annalong - 19th November 2010
visitor avatar Awesome presents. Although the white one seems to stay warmer slightly longer than the red one, and only for 10ish mins, but still cool thankyou!
Kimberly, Kent - 18th November 2010
visitor avatar I have been using this since Christmas LAST YEAR. It is very useful for when I go to my stables. It stays warm for about 2 hours which when you have 4 is more than enough time.
