Manual or Bluetooth Control
To adjust the level of heating on this sock you can do it in two ways and they are: manually and as well through Bluetooth connection using your Smartphone. For that purpose, these Lenz Heated Socks have a specially designed phone application that will make easy controlling the socks. The app is user-friendly and it is available for both Android and iOS systems.
This application will be especially useful during dynamic outdoor activities such as skiing and running. Especially for those people who do not want to bend over to adjust the required temperature manually. With this Bluetooth application, just by clicking on your Smartphone will be able to quickly and easily adjust your required temperature, this will save you a lot of time in certain situations.
3 Different Levels of Heating
With these socks you are not limited to just one temperature level, you are provided with three different temperature levels that can be controlled via a Smartphone application or you can do this manually on the socks themselves.
High, medium and low-temperature settings are available to you. This means that these heated socks are not only suitable for outdoor activities in winter but can also be used in early spring and late autumn when temperatures are still low in certain areas.
I believe that you will not use the high heating setting very often; you will most likely be set the medium or low heating setting. The high heating setting is best for extreme cold situations such as skiing, hunting or hiking when temperatures are really low.
Ergonomic Design
These Lenz heat socks are designed to provide not only warmth to your feet but also comfort and efficiency. Their use is the same as regular socks and does not cause any wear discomfort at all. They include rechargeable lithium battery packs that have a slim design and fit well with the socks so they are almost unnoticeable.
When you wear these Lenz heat socks, they do not give you a feeling of bulk compared to the heated socks of other brands. Thanks to their ergonomic design, you’ll feel comfortable whether you’re wearing them with boots or shoes and constantly warming your feet all day long.
A Powerful Combination of Materials
For the high quality and durable design of these high-end socks, a powerful combination of materials such as merino wool, polyester, polypropylene, polyamide, and elastin are used. So when wearing these socks you will feel as comfortable as wearing regular socks.
One of the many important features of these heated socks is the ability to absorb moisture and the main role for this has the merino wool. Merino wool has the ability to absorb a significant amount of moisture, leaving your feet dry even after a long period of wearing these socks.
In addition to absorbing moisture, merino wool also absorbs odors caused by wearing socks a longer time. And not only is your feet dry all the time but also the removal of moisture prevents bacterial infections of the feet.
They Are Easy Washable
Washing these Lenz heated socks is quite easy and simple, the same as regular socks. You can use your own washing machine.
Place them in a separate provided washing bag and place them in the washing machine. Set the washing machine on a regular hot cycle, but be careful that the water temperature is not too hot.
After washing, never put them into the dryer, as hot air in the dryer can damage the socks. It is always advisable to allow them to air dry.
Rechargeable Lithium Battery Packs rcB1200
Along with the Lenz heated socks, you get 2 rechargeable lithium batteries. Otherwise, Lenz offers one of the most advanced batteries and they are part of Lenz heating products such as heated socks, heated gloves, heated footwear, and heated vests. The battery packs are designed so that they can be easily attached to the top of the socks and folded under the cuff and can also be easily detached at any time.
As I said earlier, batteries can be remotely controlled via a Bluetooth application which is a truly innovative solution. With the Bluetooth application, you can adjust the heating of your feet and also effortlessly turn off and on the batteries. And the second way of controlling the batteries is manual, for that purpose they have built-in buttons. You should also know that socks and batteries have their own numeric codes.
As I said earlier in this post, the battery pack offers three heating modes: low, medium and high. How long a single rechargeable battery will last will depend on which heating mode you choose.
- If you use the highest heating mode, the batteries will last approximately 3 to 4 hours.
- In moderate heating mode, you will get about 5.5 to 7.5 hours of heat.
- If you select the low heating mode then the batteries can last from 10 up to 14 hours.
The Universal USB Charger
The batteries come with a universal USB charger, which means you can easily charge them wherever you go.
All you need to do is plug the universal charger into a power source, then detach the batteries from the socks and connect them to the universal charger via the USB cable. The charging time of the Lithium Battery Pack rcB 1200 is between 5 and 7 hours.
Shin Bone Protection
In addition that your feet are dry and warm in these socks, you should know that these Lenz heated socks are padded with a soft and steady material. Whether you’re skiing, snowboarding, mountain climbing or hiking, this padding feature protects your feet from injury if you fall or hit your foot from something. Another positive feature of the padding is that it additionally increases the heat in the socks.
Various Sizes Available
These Lenz heated socks are available in various sizes. Depending on your needs, you can choose from small, medium, large and extra-large in size. Before buying Lenz heated socks, make sure you buy the right size for your feet. If the socks are too big or too small, then you will not fully enjoy the comfort of these Lenz heated socks during outdoor activities.
These Lenz Heated Socks Are Unisex
A wonderful feature of these Lenz heated socks is that they are unisex. This means you do not have to worry about whether you are a man or woman; these socks will be the right choice for you.
Conclusion
If you have problems with cold feet this premium Lenz heat sock 1.0 is one of the best-heated socks available. They are also a perfect alternative to heated ski boots. Unlike heated ski boots where the heaters are built-in and cannot be used for other footwear, these heated socks can be worn anywhere you go and with any footwear and you will enjoy the warmth and comfort they offer.
Knowing the fact that they are made of high-quality materials and the possibility of Bluetooth control and choice of multiple levels of heating, I think they are a perfect choice and you will really enjoy any outdoor activity in winter.
