Select Heated Blankets That Have Effective Safety Systems Meeting Regulations

Our range of heated blankets are designed with effective heating systems that meet our regulatory requirements. These requirements refer to auto-off timers and overheat protection to ensure complete safety when using your blankets. Auto shut off timers are particularly great for when you use your electric blanket when falling asleep. If you forget to set a timer, the auto-off timer will ensure your electric blanket is switched off, preventing you from overheating in your sleep while also preventing other dangers, such as burns to your skin or even fires.

Explore Our Electric Blankets In A Range Of Styles

Traditionally, electric blankets have been used under quilt covers, so they have typically been produced in neutral white colour tones. But now, you can enjoy colourful electric blankets that bring both warmth and style to your bed. Incorporate a pop of colour with a charming pink electric heated blanket or opt for a classic white heated blanket that effortlessly complements various home decor styles.

Enjoy The Convenience Of Our Electric Blankets With Timers

A useful feature of electric blankets, timers allow you to set a time limit on your electric blanket, preventing you from waking up in the middle of the night, overheating from sleeping in the heat for too long. These timers also provide a safety precaution for extra ease of mind when you're trying to relax and unwind.

Electric Blanket FAQs

Are electric blankets safe?

When designed to meet the regulatory standards, electric blankets are incredibly safe to use when relaxing on the couch or for layering your bed linen on a chillier winter evening.

How hot do electric blankets get?

Spotlight's range of heated blankets varies in terms of their heat range. Most often, heated blankets can reach temperatures of between 30 and 45 degrees Celsius.

Are electric blankets expensive to run?

When compared to having your heater on all night, heated blankets are a relatively cheaper approach to staying warm in the cooler months. In terms of your electricity bills, heated blankets typically cost an additional 2-5 cents per hour, often equating to 10-30 cents per night, resulting in around $15 to $50 to run your heated blanket every night for a 3-month winter.

How do I clean an electric blanket?

Many modern electric blankets are actually machine washable, provided you take care not to damage the delicate inner wiring. Before any cleaning, make sure to unplug and remove any cords, then place the blanket loosely into your machine. Set your machine to a gentle cycle with cool or warm water, then air dry your blanket afterwards. Older electric blankets may need to be washed by hand - always check the label to ensure you are washing your blanket correctly and safely!

How should I store my electric blanket?

Once it is clean and dry, the best way to store your electric blanket is by gently rolling it into a cylinder - sharp folds and creases can damage the wiring. You should also unplug any cords and loosely coil them before storing them away.

How do I use an electric blanket?

To use your electric blanket, first make sure it is the only thing plugged into your closest electrical socket - they get hot, so for safety, it's best they are on their own. Place your electric blanket either between your sheets and your blanket or on top of your blanket, as you don't want it directly against your skin.

Use the dial to choose your heat settings, and your blanket will heat up. Many will automatically turn off after a set period, or you may be able to choose a time for it to turn off. The important thing is not to let your electric blanket run throughout the night - you will get very hot, and you may forget to turn it off when you get up!
