An electric blanket has an electrical heating device built in that is meant to be placed above the bed sheet. In Commonwealth countries, however, it refers to an electric mattress pad that is kept below the bottom bed sheet. They comprise a control unit that allows the user to adjust the heat produced by the device. Larger size beds may even have two separate control units for both sides of the bed. An electric blanket can be useful to heat the bed to a certain level before sleeping to keep the occupant cosy and warm. Typical low voltage electric blankets work on 12-24 volts and are made of thin carbon fibre wires. The electric blanket was invented more than a century ago by American inventor Samuel Russell, while the first recorded sale in the electric blanket market was by the Samson United Corporation in 1930. An electric blanket uses heating elements or insulated wires that are put into a fabric that heats up when connected to an electrical socket. The temperature control unit, located between the electrical point and blanket, controls the current that enters the heating elements of the blanket. Modern devices use carbon fibre wires to provide heat for the user’s comfort. These wires are much less conspicuous and bulky than the ones used in the past. Today, there are a lot of variations available in the electric blanket market like under blankets, over-blankets, throws and duvets. What is common is the wiring that heats up when connected to the electric point. Buyers are truly spoilt for choice now as they can select blankets with dual controls, those that remain on throughout the night, and those that are machine washable or even those that regulate themselves according to the user’s body temperature.
