How was it Found in Bed |
An
electric blanket is a bed covering with a built-in heating element
so that a sleeper can maintain a desired temperature even in a cold
room. Many consumers prefer these blankets because their use can reduce
home heating costs. The sophisticated temperature controls of modern
electric blankets can sense changes in skin and air temperature and
adjust settings accordingly. The most advanced model blankets are programmable,
so they can pre-warm the bed at a certain time and shut off at a certain
hour. They are also able to adjust temperature for the needs of two
people in the same bed. Some blankets even compensate for the different
heat needs of different parts of the body; for instance, sending more
heat to the sleeper's feet while leaving the head area cooler. Approximately
4.5 million electric blankets are sold in the United States annually. |
