    I used to use those... being Minnesooootan and all.

    But honestly I use the new style heat packs now. They are safer, disposable, and work well.




    And if you stick them inside the Swany Toaster "mitten gloves, you're in bidness.

    Yeah, but you miss out on the red rash on your leg where the fluid leaks.

    I've never had my Jon-E leak fluid. If it leaks it is overfilled. My reccomendation... use about half the amount of fruel that Jon-E reccomends.

    As far as fuels go, I find that Genuine Jon-E fuels work best... minimal odor.. But Ronsonol or Coleman "white gas" works well provided you don't overfill. Zippo makes a similar hand warmer which is supposed to be excellent.

    So folks... Get those Jon-E's going, and relive those classic days of the cold, snowy, north woods. When real man breathed naptha. :)
