When powered on, the product heats up the water and then can keep you warm for hours once its unplugged.
Its fast charging adapter means you can warm yourself up quickly, while also saving on energy bills.
Heaters like these often cost a fraction to use than central heating.
Underneath the Facebook post, one user commented: “Oh looks good.
“I love my hot water bottle might invest.”
Another said: “I have one, it is great.
“Takes less time to charge than a kettle to boil.”
Others added how the “15 minute” charge can make the bottle last “about 3-4 hours”, leaving them “very impressed”.
One proud owner said: “I got one last year and it’s amazing.
“You can just plug it in at the side of the bed if you’re cold.
“They stay warm all night pretty much.”
Reviews for near identical products have also been extremely positive, with many adding how useful it is to have zero risk of burns from refilling.
4 ways to keep your energy bills low
Laura Court-Jones, Small Business Editor at Bionic shared her tips.
1. Turn your heating down by one degree
You probably won’t even notice this tiny temperature difference, but what you will notice is a saving on your energy bills as a result. Just taking your thermostat down a notch is a quick way to start saving fast. This one small action only takes seconds to carry out and could potentially slash your heating bills by £171.70.
2. Switch appliances and lights off
It sounds simple, but fully turning off appliances and lights that are not in use can reduce your energy bills, especially in winter. Turning off lights and appliances when they are not in use, can save you up to £20 a year on your energy bills
3. Install a smart meter
Smart meters are a great way to keep control over your energy use, largely because they allow you to see where and when your gas and electricity is being used.
4. Consider switching energy supplier
No matter how happy you are with your current energy supplier, they may not be providing you with the best deals, especially if you’ve let a fixed-rate contract expire without arranging a new one. If you haven’t browsed any alternative tariffs lately, then you may not be aware that there are better options out there.
One said: “[It] saves you having to get out of bed if you wake up cold during the night, as you just have to re-charge it again.
“Very useful.”
A second added: “Ideal for stiff neck or back pain.
“Stays warmer through the night than a ordinary hot water bottle.”
