Not like the ones belonging to your grandmother, the new
styles of electric blanket have really changed to enhance
your sleeping comfort. New electric blankets now come with
heat sensors that turn the blanket on and off to keep a
desired temperature in the bed while you sleep. No longer
just a matter of setting the temperature and plugging it
in, these blankets are designed to keep your sleep as
comfortable and cozy as possible.
Warming up a cold bed with a pre-set timer is a welcome
feature on many models of electric blankets. All that you
need to do is simply program in the time you want the
blanket to begin pre-heating the bed and then get ready to
climb between warm sheets.
If you have been hesitant to get an electric blanket
because of concerns with electricity usage, do not worry.
The new models have automatic off and on features to ensure
that the blanket is only using the electricity needed, as
it will turn off and on automatically. In addition, using
an electric blanket means that you can keep the room
temperature cooler, which may end up actually saving you
money on your heating bills. If you disliked the old corded
electric blankets, the new remote control blankets may be
just the item for you. The handy cordless remote can sit
beside you on the nightstand and will allow you to adjust
the temperature with ease.
For watching TV or reading an electric throw is a terrific
option. Smaller than a full sized electric blanket they
still offer all the features of a full sized blanket,
including an automatic shut off and multiple temperature
settings.
For really energy conscious consumers the new low voltage
micro-fleece blanket is a great choice. This blanket comes
with a power converter that changes the standard 120V power
into the low voltage 25V power used by the blanket. This
increases both its efficiency and safety, and provides a
constant heat over the whole blanket. There are no hot or
cold spots, nor does the blanket ever get hot to the touch,
rather it stays evenly warm. The micro-fleece fabric acts
to distribute heat evenly over the whole blanket.
The key to keeping your electric blanket safe is to make
sure it is in good repair and condition. The new models
will all have an automatic shut off as a standard safety
feature and will also have temperature settings to avoid
overheating. The choice of colors, styles and fabrics is
huge, and they can be matched to almost any decor. If you
have been looking for a comfortable way to sleep and would
enjoy getting into a warm and snuggly bed, you may wish to
consider an electric blanket.
