Cold weather has arrived, and winter is just around the corner. Here are seven great gadgets to help you keep the winter cold at bay.
1. Warm Your Core With the Ororo Heated Vest
The Ororo heated vest uses more than insulation to keep you warm in cold weather—it keeps your body toasty with the help of four carbon-fiber coils on your back, neck, and stomach area.
The vest runs on a lithium-ion battery, and you can adjust it to low, medium, or high temperatures. With 10 hours of battery power on the lowest setting, the Ororo heated vest has plenty of juice to keep you warm on those cold winter days. It’s available in men’s and women’s styles in various sizes from extra small to 2XL.
2. The Volt 5V Heated Scarf Will Keep Your Neck Comfy
The Volt 5V Heated Scarf is like a portable heater for your neck. The heater component is stitched to the back of the fleece scarf and is powered by a portable battery pack.
You can count on the Volt 5V Heated Scarf to keep you warm during cold weather for between three to seven hours, depending on your battery setting. If needed, you can use any extra power as a backup smartphone charger, as the scarf’s power bank disconnects and offers a handy USB outlet.
3. Warm Cold Hands With the Zippo Rechargeable Hand Warmer
The Zippo HeatBank rechargeable hand warmer is the perfect gadget for keeping frostbite at bay after a snowball fight or other cold weather activity. The Zippo line of rechargeable hand warmers comes in three versions that heat for three, six, or nine hours. Conveniently, all of Zippo’s hand warmers allow you to adjust the temperature up to a cozy 120 degrees F.
Like the Volt heated scarf, you can use the hand warmer’s extra power as a backup USB charger.
4. Stay Connected in the Cold With North Face Etip Gloves
People always need their tech, even in the extreme cold weather. With North Face Etip Gloves, you can use your smartphone without taking off your gloves. Etip gloves have a special coating that North Face designed especially for use with touch screens. Plus, the gloves feature special designs to keep the gloves in place and your hands warm and relaxed.
5. Keep Your Head Warm With the Gobi Crest Heated Beanie
The Gobi Crest heated beanie lets you control your comfort outdoors in cold weather. You can control the beanie with a conveniently located touch LED controller for up to seven and a half hours of head-warming comfort.
The heated beanie goes from zero to warm in less than 30 seconds and has a heat zone over each ear with easy-to-understand settings. The hat also features discrete LED buttons that make it easy for you to see and choose heat settings depending on the cold weather conditions outside.
6. Ember Mug2 Keeps Beverages at the Perfect Temp

The Ember electric smart mug holds up to 14 ounces of your favorite beverage and will keep it warm for up to 80 minutes on a full charge. At the office or at home, you can keep your drinks warm all day while the mug is on the charging coaster (included).
The mug has a control panel that allows you to change the temperature. Alternatively, you can use the Ember-Temperature Matters app to adjust the mug to the perfect temperature via your smartphone. Another handy feature is that the mug’s LED light illuminates when the mug reaches the temperature you set.
