Heated fingerless gloves for keyboard use
(lemmy.nz)
Looking for electrically heated fingerless gloves for office use. I have chronically cold fingers, and so the intent is just to maintain a bit more dexterity on a keyboard etc. Battery isn't a strict requirement, although that would open up more use cases. I know there are stationary USB-powered models as well. (I suppose nothing prevents using an external power bank on the go)
There isn't exactly shortage of options but a lot of them are just cheap cotton gloves with like one wire stuffed in there, so I'm here trying to fish for the better quality options.
Unfortunately not really. They may hold up for a while but then something knocks the ball down the hill and fingers remain cold until warmed up under a tap or something. I do like them when dexterity isn't so important though, reading for instance.
Seems quite extreme, but you know your needs better than I. You sure you used thick woolen ones and not a cheap plastic substitute?
Yup I have a pair of fluffy woolen ones.
There are also some with a pocket for a chemical handwarmer pouch: https://www.theheatcompany.com/en/gloves/merino-tube That can help but ultimately heating one spot does only so much. Also the heaters are disposable.
I don't know why but they don't look particularly warm to me compared to, like, these lonk
