OPERATING TIME
The heating duration of the bodywarmer depends on several factors: primarily the ambient temperature and
secondly the level of insulation worn under the bodywarmer. Lastly, a high setting will obviously deplete the batteries
faster than any of the lower settings. It should also be noted that the batteries only reach their full charging capacity
after a few charging cycles. Consider ordering an additional battery pack for longer use time.
The bodywarmer is made to be worn under a sweater or coat. The better the insulation around the bodywarmer, the
more effectively the heat will remain at your body.
SWITCHING OFF
The heating function is switched off by pressing the ON/OFF buttons until the LED no longer lights up or alternatively
by simply disconnecting the batteries.
After use of the bodywarmer, always disconnect the battery and keep it stored in the intended pocket. Store the
bodywarmer and the battery in a dry and clean environment at room temperature.
ENERGY CONSUMPTION & POWER BANK
The bodywarmer works on any 5V USB power source, such as a telephone charger or laptop USB connection. For
mobile use a power bank will be necessary. Although any power bank with a 5V USB connection can be used in
combination with the bodywarmer, BERTSCHAT® recommends using the separately available BERTSCHAT® power
bank designed for this use.
Most USB power banks are equipped with a 1A or 2.1A connection. Though the bodywarmer will work on a 1A con-
nection it will be able to generate more heat when connected to a 2.1A connection. However, when using the 2.1A
connection, the power bank will deplete more quickly because more power is used.
It goes without saying that the more capacity the utilised power bank has, the longer it will be able to heat. Some
power banks must be switched on manually before they provide power. Both the power bank and the bodywarmer
will then have to be switched on before the bodywarmer can become warm.
