Good trick but with the bottle warmer on a normal day any idea how long it takes to warm up?
Not long at all. By the time you flick it on and go to the boot to touch it it should be already warm to the touch.
This also depends on the bottles content !
A full bottle will take longer to heat up than a half empty bottle. This is a "how long is a piece of string" question
I use a WoN heater blanket and its very good. But I was also lucky enough to find a friend was throwing out his old Scuba suit. Guess who cut the arms and legs off that suit ???? The arms fit nicely over a 5lb bottle and the legs are ok for my 11lb bottles.
What do you mean by a "Normal Day" regarding ambient air temperature? A full bottle without a jacket on a cold day here at say 8-10C can take up to 30mins to heat up. But with a jacket fitted that comes down by at least half.
On cold day without some form of bottle jacket / blanket the heater has to work overtime to out heat in while the bottle is rejecting heat at the same time.
Is this question meant as a pre cursor to buying a bottle heater? and are you asking how long the heater pad itself takes to warm up? As said above! 10 seconds and its hot to the touch.
