Review on πŸ”₯ RoadPro RPHB-110DB 12V Polar Fleece Heated Travel Blanket, 58 x 42.5 Inches by Anuj Mierzejewski

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for cold weather camping

I bought two Roadpro 12v electric blankets. My use was not typical. I wanted them for camping and ran them on a deep cycle battery in our tent. There were two things about this blanket that made me buy it. 1. It didn't have an auto shut off. Many other 12V DC blankets have an auto shut off feature that cannot be turned off. They turn off every 1/2 hour every hour. This won't work for me. I didn't want to wake up and put the covers back on. 2. Power consumption / current are indicated in the description (4.6A, 55W). This was great information for those who don't use it with a battery that keeps charging. I connected both blankets to a desktop power supply and checked the power consumption. Both blankets powered by my 115Ah deep cycle battery should last at least 10 hours. Naturally. Ten hours later they were still comfortably warm. We put another blanket over them in the tent to keep them warm. 55W on a large area doesn't get that warm. If you fold it up and let it run for a while or if you cover it with another blanket to keep it warm they work really well. They will accompany us on all future trips in cold weather.

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Good but not great
