I have an oil filled radiator in my studio as its sole form of heat. It seems like a strange idea, but it's simple, reliable and works quite well, with the oil filled segments being heated via electricity.
Anyone who follows me here will know that I like deckchairs, so it doesn't take much to join
the dots and create a Heated Deckchair which provides a source of heating for those who like to sit outside in cold weather.
Instead of the traditional thin deckchair material, there is now a fabric that resembles a length of underfloor heating before it's covered up. It's through this flexible fabric that the gently heated oil flows, emitting luxurious warmth to the back of the reclining person.
Heated Deckchair naturally requires a source of electricity provided for by either a mains supply or rechargeable batteries. A noiseless heater, thermostat control and pump generates and regulates the oil flow around the tubular matrix.
With a Heated Deckchair you can now have a lazy winter evening lying outside for an extended period of time, as you contemplate the passage of the space station which is often visible on a clear night.

If it's widely known to exist, point me towards the heated deckchair section in the outdoor furniture store. (not Amazon - I never have and never will buy anything from Bezos) |
|
| |
Not heated outdoor furniture.... Heated
Deckchair! Also - don't want any "made in China"
crap. So - summing up: No Bezos; No slave labour
manufacturing; No Chinese rubbish and must be a
heated deckchair. Go fetch! |
|
| |
Picture a baffled dog with its head on one side. |
|
| |
Hahaha - that link is not even a deckchair, but it
might double up as a ship anchor. |
|
| |
Now you know the correct name. A sling is that
which you put your arm in after breaking it while
attempting to wrestle a carrot from out of the
mouth of a hungry mule. |
|
| |
Bowing is always appreciated but grovelling is
better again. (last link is still not a deckchair)
Meanwhile, you must spend hours trying
desperately to undermine every new idea on the
halfbakery. |
|
| |
I never try to promote any halfbaked idea as being
advantageous in a practical way. In fact many of
my ideas are definitely impractical and some are
quite lethal. |
|
| |
Idea [+] No slave labour manufacturing [-] |

// The seat would harden and become uncomfortable as the stored heat ran out.// |
|
| |
Heat transfer oil isn't supposed to freeze at any realistic temperature. But now I want a (fabric covered) wax chair that will melt to conform to my body shape. |
|
| |
[a1]; the "Evia" is (as far as I can tell) rigid, not flexible
("inspired by" a sling chair) so it is not this. The only vague
similarity to this idea is the "heated" part. |
|
| |
Deckchairs also fold down and become completely
flat for storage. Have you never heard the
expression "like rearranging the deckchairs on the
Titanic" for something that's said when idiot ideas
prevail in the face of a crisis? |
|
| |
Your's is halfway across the tightrope ready for you
to rest up. ha |
|
| |
So. Craftsman made folding deckchair, hand carved from sustainably harvested local timber. The fabric seat woven incorporating small bore flexible oil filled tubes, filled wih recirculating heated oil. |
|
| |
Could heat the oil using IR lasers aimed at a heat exchanger mounted on the frame. |
|
| |
[xandram]; odd that Coastrail's own website doesn't have the
heated chairs. |
|
| |
Those links aren't deckchairs. I provided the one
and only link that shows deckchairs. (this is why
we worry so much about what goes on in the
Colonies) |
|
| |
Would that they could have reached. |
|
| |
Whilst the older definition of deckchair appears to
be the canvas and folding wooden ones, it is now
updated to * any folding, portable chair * . I
consider all the chairs on my deck to be deck
chairs, as I don’t own an ocean liner. |
|
| |
Do you constantly rearrange them as you act out
"house descending into a sink-hole scenarios"? |
|
| |
Don't worry about the size of your deck, it works as well as anyone's, I'm sure the seats that are put upon it are as satisfied as with anyone else's. |
|
| |
Well now we must figure out the differences
between upright chairs and lounges. The one from
the Titanic is a lounge. My lounge chair is on the
patio. |
|
| |
Lounger, surely? A lounge is a kind of room |
|
| |
Having one modeled after the Titanic isn't a chairful thought. |
