THERMOCELL HEATED INSOLES

wow thx for the replies they reportedly designed to keep at a set temp not hot just right , so one may not notice, but yet doesnt have cold feet . i suffer from cold feet alot. Tried about everything now im running hot toes adhesive attached to sock .. yes and no on these if you get to marching around in them you will be removing them for sure . still im on the fence on the thermocells as 80 -100 bucks is a lot of toe warmers .. we all really want a product that works , holds , up is the go to item .. im surprised that thermo cell hasn't had a dead -on upgraded unit after the time since they have been on the market . but they may be at their top end item in their design . so no changes ... ant other readers have solid reports for the hpa community and thx again for the replies we have lets hear them gang !!

One more thing i was on ebay just a moment ago again still looking at them and still held off for now ... i wanted to add to this on cold feet are BOOTS, i learned this awhile back as for a second season or stand hunt in lower tempos or on a steel treestand base etc... Heres a solid repot on a boot that has proven itself time and again ... MILITARY SURLUS MICKEY MOUSE BOOTS thats right MICKEYS sportsmans guide has the new at get this $35 bucks i paid that years ago , and these are still going strong ,talk about tough boot . but the are heavy bulky funny looking but WORK . I spent well over one hundred bucks for a top brand boot for dicks , guy says no problem if your feet get cold return them ..well one hunt they were back i forget the brand but were top of the line . then mickeys sportsmans guide . i can honestly say these ugly ducklings are the boot to end cold feet . add a toe warmer u can hunt all day sits no problems. ive marched in these as well drives etc been there did it . but this report is on thermocell, im a gadget guy and if something gets the job done im in . so before mickey season hunts my mid season boot can still get cold thats the reason for the thermocell investigation . hey hard earned money needed be foolishly spent and research is the first thing i do before i buy ANYTHING , and there still been back and forth reports on thermocell inserts .. so im in a holding pattern ... for now ... other replies welcomed , add to this for report to solve a major issue in the outdoors mans world

I have had the early model of the insoles and had horrible results. They worked exactly three times before the left one totally quit and would not get warm. I thought--ok--I'll be sure. Charged them and put them in the freezer for an hour and sure enough the left one was trash. Took them back and received another set--same results--failure. This time the right one failed. OH--by the way I did NOT have them in my boots while walking. Waited till I was at the stand and put them in and turned them on so I do not believe I created any flexing issues of the insole that would have caused failure.
I have had friends who tried the newer so called active model of the insole. I know of three failures of these where the insoles were NOT worn or in boots while on the way to the stand. They did as I did and put them in when they got to the stand so as NOT to flex or perhaps create any undue stress from flexing of the insole. ALL three of those folks had failures of the insoles only be able to use them 3 or 4 times at most before they quit working.
I will give them credit for nice packaging of the product but they are far too expensive for a product that I personally have failures and know others who have. I have seen this first hand--not some [censored] story that is third hand info.
Do yourself a favor---DO NOT waste your hard earned money.
