Heated car seat covers can transform your no-frills commuter car into a back-friendly comfort-mobile. Not only are they good for the driver--but heated car seat covers can make your passengers' experience a whole lot warm-fuzzier. And for very little money!
For a price range between $13 and $60, depending on what controls, contouring, and massage features you may want, you can outfit your seat, plug that baby into the cigarette lighter and feel the warmth. Below, I've listed the top benefits of heated car seat covers--as well as answers to the top concerns.
1. Heated car seat covers are a great value. Even if you get the top of the line model, these things are just surprisingly cheap. Sure, it's nicer to have the heated seats built into the car as an option when you buy it--but many buyers report actually preferring the feel of the plug-in heated car seat covers.
2. It's possible to plug in two or three heated car seat covers at a time. With the use of a 3-way cigarette lighter adapter, you can have the driver and up to two passengers taken care of all winter long. The best adapters come with a battery level indicator as well--so you can keep an eye on how well your battery is managing with the extra electricity drain.
3. For people whose core automobile heaters are not working, heated car seat covers can function as an auxiliary to a plug-in defroster/heater fan. For the purposes of safety, the most important thing when one's car heater is not working is to be able to keep the windows defrosted, Unfortunately, however, defrosted windows do not help keep passengers warm. Seat heaters are a great, low-coast companion to a hard-working little plugin defroster. Not optimal, to be sure--but it'll get you through the cold winter while you save up for a more permanent solution to the problem.
The biggest question most people have about plug-in heated car seat covers (and other plug-in devices) is about safety. Is there any likelihood of creating electrical wiring problems in the vehicle through such devices? Any likelihood of starting a fire or shorting out your car's electrical system?
The answer to that question is, if it's built to plug into the cigarette lighter and you are using a good-quality adapter, it should be a perfectly safe solution. For added assurance, it's always a good idea to select models that have gotten good user reviews on Amazon. Even if you choose to buy elsewhere, take full advantage of those Amazon customer reviews; and buy products that others have tested for you.
