Crystals form releasing the stored heat The activation disc is the key to starting the reaction .The clicker has a slight curvature in one direction and the best way to 'Snap' the disk is to grab the edges and gently flex the middle of the disc to reverse the bend till it "SnapZ".Once done correctly, you will begin to see the crystals form. This is when the fun begins!

Therapy Muscle AchesSorenessIncrease circulationPortableNo electricity requiredReusable How hot do HotSnapZ reusable heat packs get? The chemistry inside HotSnapZ is a safe and self-regulating reaction. The maximum internal temperature reaches 128-130F and typically 115-120F at the surface during normal use. The temperatures that HotSnapZ operate at are considered to be non-burning when used as directed. What is inside a HotSnapZ pack and how does it work? HotSnapZ reusable hand warmers and heating pads contain water, a small metal disc and sodium acetate, a safe food grade salt ingredient. Click the click to release the heat. Once the heat is done, simply drop your HotSnapZ hand warmer or heat pad in gently boiling water for 5-10 minutes to recharge. How many uses can I expect to get? In theory, the number of times that a HotSnapZ can reused is infinite. However, the consequences of real life usually take their toll on HotSnapZ at some point via wear-n-tear, being torn, stepped on, forgotten in the boiling pan or having one of your friends walk off with them. So, we expect and tell the average user to expect 200-300+ uses if properly used and stored. How long does the heat last? Heat duration depends on the product's size, how the product is used, & how well the product is insulated during use. Our larger Rectangles, Neck and Shoulder products are rated at 2+ hours of heat. Our green rectangular Pocket Warmers at 50-60 minutes each and 30-40 minutes for our Round Hand and Heart Hand Warmers. Extended heat times are achieved by having some extra ones in reserve! Remember....HotSnapZ are REUSABLE!
INSTANT HEAT WITH NO ELECTRICITY - Snapping the internal starts to generate instant heat, reaching up to 130 degrees. The internal chemical reaction generates long-lasting heat (about 1-2 hours for Large, 50 mins. Pocket Warmers, 30 mins. for Hand Warmers,). Heat when you need it fast.

These are cool little devices. Bending the metal disk with your thumbs activates the reaction which causes the liquid gel to solidify and heat up. It gets to a max temp of 130F. I purchased them for scuba diving and tested them out with my wetsuits in a pool. When I placed one against my abdomen (over a bathing suit, under a wetsuit and in water), it was very warm and did leave a red mark on my skin (which went away). I used the large one between two layers of wetsuit on my back, and it was comfortable. Also small ones fit nicely in my armpits and were not too hot because they were not pressed against the skin like the abdomen one was. Because the water moves around in a wetsuit, the heat didn't last very long (maybe 15min) but I'm hoping it will be enough to make a chilly dive more comfortable. There is no way to activate these through the wetsuit, so you have to activate them then gear up and get in (would be perfect if I could activate one near the end of a dive). They become quite hard once activated, in whatever shape they were when they were activated. The heat lasts much longer when insulated and dry, for example in a jacket pocket.Things I learned: Although there are microwave directions on the website, they are much trickier than the boiling method. I damaged one in the microwave. I recommend sticking with the stovetop boiling method. I was also having a problem with them activating on their own (after a week of sitting on the counter, while I wasn't even home so not touched). Ray from the company was extremely responsive and helpful with these problems. He explained that the self-activating was due to not boiling long enough so there was an invisible rogue crystal left that at some point randomly triggered activation. He recommended boiling longer, and/or letting the HotSnapZ cool in the water to be sure everything is completely dissolved. That seems to have worked. He also replaced one that arrived damaged quickly and generously (adding extra free ones).Customer service is outstanding, Ray really stands behind his product. My kids are stealing them every evening to use after swim practice!Update: I have now used these scuba diving, and they work REALLY WELL under a wetsuit when placed in the armpits. It is so cozy to dive with a warm core, and the wetsuit insulates the heat for the whole dive. And, they can be recharged by boiling in the hotel coffee/tea pot.
