Toasty Toes from www.indus-tool.com provides thermostatically-controlled heat to feet and legs. Some have called it a “heating pad for your feet”. Three positions for convenience: mat, ergonomic footrest, and vertical heat panel. Compact, portable Toasty Toes measures 12” x 18” x (maximum) 5”, weighs 5 pounds, draws 90 watts and 0.8 amps and is ETL-listed. Its handy dial provides easy control, and the 6’ cord plugs into any 110v outlet. Addresses Safety Concerns: no space-heater-related hazards like fires, burns, explosions, indoor air pollution or carbon monoxide poisoningToasty Toes can be used anywhere, whereas space heaters have restrictions on building type and height, plus restrictions on use on carpetAddresses Energy-Cost and Efficiency Concerns (compared to a space heater):low wattage means low electricity useno tripped circuit breakersAt work, warm legs and feet promote productivity, eliminating the distractions and complaints of cold temperatures: use at a desk, conference room, lunch room or bathroom, shipping table, security or ticket booth, repair shop, airplane hangar, drive-thru window, barn, production line, refrigerated work areas.
