12V Blanket ?

Sorry if this is the wrong forum!

My motorhome dash heating/cooling system is lousy. My passenger gets cold and I'd like to have a 12V blanket or some type of heater to keep her warm and not have to rely on running a generator or dash heater.

Surely someone out there has had the same issue and can give some suggestions.

Thanks in advance for any replies!

Jim

Might want to check Harbor Freight for their hand held 12v defroster.

Camping World has a 12 volt throw and Costco did have one.. I bought mine from Costco and it's great! It has a long enough cord that I can even use it while watching TV on the couch or setting at my computer. The one with a timer is good... if you forget to turn it off it does so its self after a time you set.

We got one of the Costco 12V blankets - used it last October on a trip from Chicago. DW loved it!

The timer feature was not a plus in her view. She'd doze off snuggled in the blanket only to be awakened later when the timer cycled off.
