Electric pj's operate just like your standard electric blanket, with the little wee coils running through the fabric and a little thermostat for temperature control. The power cord could come out at one of the ankles and plug into the nearest outlet. Have one of those anti-twist thingies so you don't wake up strangling in the cord. And think of the attachments! Clock radio, back massager, high-frequency hum to repel insects. Possibilities are endless, really.-- lintkeeper2, Nov 05 2003 Accompanied by... http://www.halfbake...m/idea/DiscipLinens [k_sra, Oct 05 2004, last modified Oct 17 2004] Matching Socks http://www.allsport...m/batpowbrlecs.htmlElectric Socks - "D" Batteries not included [Letsbuildafort, Oct 05 2004, last modified Oct 17 2004] Cooling Suits http://www.esa.int/...FDD_Benefits_0.html [Letsbuildafort, Oct 05 2004, last modified Oct 17 2004] The McLaren Pit Crews http://www.esa.int/...its_1.html#subhead2thats just nifty [Letsbuildafort, Oct 05 2004, last modified Oct 17 2004] Heated Underpants http://www.halfbake...Heated_20Underpants [Monkfish, Oct 05 2004, last modified Oct 17 2004] wee coils? recoils..shock you into wakefulness in the morning? I could use that feature.-- po, Nov 05 2003 small snakes?-- silverstormer, Nov 05 2003 i don't think i would want to be wrap in something that plugged into the wall....-- punkypoo, Nov 05 2003 Wireless heating.. would be a way to go..-- artist, Nov 05 2003 sounds oddly familiar... [link].-- k_sra, Nov 05 2003 Piezo pyjamas? All that tossing and turning converts to heat.-- 2 fries shy of a happy meal, Nov 05 2003 The aerospace industry has baked the opposite - cooling suits ... the McLaren F1 pit crews wear the cooled suits ... with links ...-- Letsbuildafort, Nov 05 2003 [pp]/[art] The only alternative I could come up with to plugging into the wall was a battery pack, and I thought that would be less comfortable.-- lintkeeper2, Nov 05 2003 So what happens if you pee your pants at night? do you electrocute yourself?? I rather have a reachargable electric piyama so that its not connected to the wall.-- SmartyPants, Nov 05 2003 Make sure you use surge protection!-- silverstormer, Nov 06 2003 Most of us don't pee the bed anymore, [SmartyPants], but perhaps this would work as negative reinforcement for you, to clear that little issue up.-- lintkeeper2, Nov 06 2003 Good riposte [lintkeeper2]. I guess with these you wouldn't really need the duvet/covers anymore? In fact, if you made the pyjamas thick and spongy (don't get excited [SmartyPants] - not for that reason!) then you would be cushioned and you wouldn't need any of the whole bed-assembly thing at all - you could sleep anywhere in warmth and comfort! My only problem though - how do you wash the electric pyjamas? Are the coils etc removable?-- dobtabulous, Nov 06 2003 Now *that's* an idea!-- lintkeeper2, Nov 06 2003 mmm...makes me sleepy...but a croissant before i doze off...-- Mistress Bling, Nov 07 2003 random, halfbakery
