I'm known for my cold feet, to those who know me, and I can't turn it past half way, that's how hot they get. I believe they are only 10watts.

Meanwhile, the glove liners, also 10watts, never go below half way, and my hands never seem to get hot. Always just comfy even when on full blast (my gloves are cheapo bilt winter textiles).

So the controller determines how much heat you feel.. but does it also determine how much electricity is being used? Could 3 heated items on the lower settings draw the same electricity as 1-2 heated items on higher settings?
