Comfort For Wildlings
"Being cold doesn't even enter my mind now"
Here are the added benefits of replacing your old stuff sack with the Hot Pocket:
- Instant on-demand warmth anywhere you need it
- Sleeping bag compression
- Day Pack mode
- Charge or Power other devices
Hot Pocket's multi-functional design helps you feel prepared for the unknown and enjoy the wild in comfort.

But... Is it worth the price?
Is Hot Pocket worth it?
Let's take a look at everything Hot Pocket does:
- Unzip the sides and use as a heated hand muff
- Place it in your seat as a seat warmer
- Blanket or sleeping bag compression
- Day Pack
- Phone, laptop, or device charger
- Electric blanket (without the cord)
Total all of those items up separately and not only do you have a jumbled mess, you also are going to spend upwards of $500...
But... how heavy is it?
Most Compression Bags weigh about 2.5 ounces
- Hot Pocket Small weighs 4.5 ounces
- Hot Pocket Medium weighs 7 ounces
- Hot Pocket Large weighs 8.5 ounces
- Power Pack UL weighs 9.6 ounces
So the small only weighs 2 ounces more than your current compression bag. You know, the one that doesn't turn on and heat you up.
and.. If you aren't carrying a battery into the wild, you should be, not only is your phone your gps, camera, and movie ticket now days... it could also save your life.
I'd say adding 9.6oz just to make sure your phone is charged is absolutely worth it, might as well use it to stay warm too.
But... will it stand up to the elements?
YES..
- All of the Hot Pocket components are Waterproof. (please don't use this underwater though)
- Power Pack is IP65 certified (100% dust-proof and spray-proof)
- Power Pack has 100% waterproof ports
Hot Pocket is made for the wild.

I purchased the hot pocket a few months back but my trip was delayed by a few months.
Have moved into my motorhome and thankfully had this gem and my puffle (which is like sleeping wrapped in the softest clouds) during some welcomed rain that had rolled in for a few days, right as I got my first camp site!
Not being fully set up I had to quickly set up enough camp to function.
I was cold, wet, first night on a jack knife couch, and beginning to mentally prepare for a rough sleep..
Quickly watched the gear guide videos with great optimism!!
I…. Couldnt…Be…Happier….
WOWZA!
The blue setting in the bottom of my puffle kept me snug as a bug right till morning.. where I was still sooo warm that the idea of getting out of my cocoon of warmth and comfort, was totally rejected and I settled back in for an extra 2 hrs of sleep… Until natured called and could no longer be denied!! Lol
It’s been a few nights now and I cant imagine my trip with out the hot pocket.
Ingenious ideas on making it a pack sack, or arm/foot sleeves… I’ve obviously tried all the training video positions now as well as a few “i wonder if it can do this” options but tucked into my puffle for bed is where it’s at for me.
Its really quick to charge and doesnt drain my battery bank. Barely detectable.
I cant wait to try my other products. Each will be tested throughly and reviewed.
The puffle was used along with my hot pocket and must say being able to put my hot pocket on my lap and wrap myself ku-by-ya style in the puffle, utilizing the snaps to modify the puffle shape to my position is super handy over zippered bags, respectively. I was able to tent myself in my puffle, with my hot pocket on my lap, while I read a book waiting for the rain to stop.
1 point for puffle on this hot pocket review.
Everything is incredibly soft.
