<p>A bed-warming system includes at least one reheating station that electrically heats compatible personal heating units to a safe temperature. Direct connection or inductive power transfer methods are preferred. Latent heat evolution at for example about 45 deg C from capsules holding a wax inside each heating unit simulates a higher effective specific heat than water alone, and at a steady temperature. A high effective heat is alternatively simulated by use of an battery within a personal heating unit that has been recharged, then discharged through a heater inside the module under electronic temperature-regulated control.</p> |
