Centrally-heated mat?

[Andy BB]

Just saw this on ebay

It appears to be a steam-heated sleeping mat!

It does indeed... not sure I'd be happy sleeping next to a lit gas stove topped by a pot of hot water.

There are easier and safer ways to keep warm!!

Insane. I'd be suprised if it's legal... Must be used for first aid (warming casualties) rather than actual unsupervised sleeping!

 

[Spikey DaPikey]

Think i'll pass on this one........ :yikes:

 

[nuggets]

ah don,t know !!! Thou you could make a nice warm brew in the morning just by emptying the mat - hahahahahaha

lol this just looks.... god I'd hate to have to write an incident report on this one....

 

[Shewie]

Too may points of failure and I wouldn't sleep for fear of it scalding me or bursting. Interesting concept and I wouldn't mind trying one for a laugh.

But.... but... how? OK, so steam goes in. Steam circulates in the mattress on the cold floor and cools down. The steam condenses into water.

So surely after a few hours what we have here is a waterbed?

Hilarious! And its not even April yet! Actually i bought a petrol stove of that seller a while back- a bargain, and it's pretty good too. If you look through what they have, there are a few useful bushy bits (posted direct from china- i have no idea of their quality).
