This one is pretty weird. Based on technology developed by a laboratory connected to the US Military in around 1975.

By flexing the activator disk within the fluid-filled pack, the friction caused acts as a catalyst that creates an exothermic reaction. The transformation of the molecular structure from a liquid to a solid state releases a steady heat for around 30 minutes for this portable version.

This "Shin Bio Heat Pack" contains non-toxic sodium acetate (salt'n'vinegar!), a form of highly concentrated saline which generates heat to a safe 54ºC in a matter of seconds. The heat generated provides therapeutic benefits in relieving various muscular, ligament or tendon aches and pains, discomforts or injuries.

And it's resusable! As the process is a physical change and not a chemical reaction, the exothermic reaction can be "activated" an unlimited number of times. You just place the used and hardened pack into a pot of boiling water for 5 to 15 minutes or until the pack becomes completely liquified (wrapped in a tea towel to ensure that the pack doesn't make contact with the pot). You can do this hundreds or even thousands of times. With proper care, the packs should last about 5 to 10 years.

The Shin Bio Heat Packs can also be used as cold packs. Simply place in the fridge in liquid form for about one hour. As the salt water has a freezing temperature much lower then the freezer setting, even in the freezer it will not freeze and become ice. Hence, it is always a cold pack not an ice pack.

Here's our Shin Bio range:

+ Small Heat Pack: 130 mm x 90 mm. Perfectly designed to fit into your pocket, car or office drawer. Comes in handy when away from home. Excellent as a hand warmer too!

+ Medium Heat Pack: 260 mm x 140 mm. Ideal for joints: wrists, elbows, knees and ankles. Can also be used for the hands, feet, calves as well as the neck area.

+ Large Heat Pack: 270 mm x 180 mm. Ideal for the lower body application: stomach, hips, and lower back. Available with a strap around body belt for greater comfort.

+ Neck & Shoulders Heat Pack: 440 mm x 150 mm. When suffering from aches and pains in the shoulder and neck area, whether from injuries or tension ... the shoulder pack is ideal.

+ Ceramic Stone Belt: Medium: 54 cm x 16 cm. Containing ceramic stone, the belt is a lightweight velcro pouch that hugs the painful area giving your body greater comfort. Used in conjunction with the Medium Heat Pack, the Ceramic Stone Belt conducts heat from the heat pack deeper into your skin. Its compact size is perfect for relieving painful joints eg. wrists, elbows, knees and ankles.

+ Ceramic Stone Belt: Large:126 cm x 20 cm. Like the Medium Ceramic Stone Belt, the large size belt is use with the large size pack.

| Very awesome!
This is very awesome indeed! Just wondering though ... I bought a small pack, and was a smidge bummed it only stayed hot for a little over 1/2 hr... could this have been because i was marvelling and poking and proding a bit too much?!... :) ~ wondering if those in the know can help re: the liklihood of it staying hot for longer perhaps after I boil it and go again?! Still love it though - planning to go bigger & better sometime soon'ish! :)

| love the instructions...
Fantastic item, and the instructions really take it to another place. Printed on the pack is "Made in Australia", yet the instructions contain the sort of grammar one expects from thrice-translated Chinese imports eg. "Boil the pack inside boiling water (in saucepan or pat) for 5-10 minutes. Until it becomes completely clear." Someone's had some fun here.

Plan to buy the neck and shoulder one next. Simple to recharge as well (by boiling)

| Too much fun but a great gadget.
I bought a small one to test it out. It really works - very cool (sorry, hot). A bit tricky to move without accidentally setting it off, though the main problem is stopping the kids - its really fun to watch it work!

| Hot Product
Great hit with my partner. The heat just hit the spot on her sore shoulder. Easy to activate and stays hot for an hour. Much praise for Shin Bio.

| Handy & Funky
Got this yesterday and spent the first 5 second after getting home from work setting it off.. It now comes with instructions.. easy as pie.. it heated up fast and stayed hot for an hour or so.. feels good for lower back. To reset it you need to boil it in hot water..no problems and then it can be used again.. I highly reccommend!

| Nifty
Although the heater needs heat to restore it, once done it can be stored ready to use in seconds. Invaluable for people with inflammatory arthritis who can't sleep and want to grab it from the bedside table without getting up !

| Good product, shame about the instructions
The product once you work it out is genuinely very cool. Good for people with arthritis etc, and probably good for science classes as well. The problem is that it comes with no instructions, so you're left playing with this pack until you either stumble across the answer, or you find it on the internet (as we did). There's a little metal

| I thought it was good, but I've changed my mind
I thought this would be an excellent, cheaper alternative to the Peacock pocket warmers when camping - but I didn't think about the boiling aspect (if you're using gas, you'll go through it pretty quickly if you're leaving it going for 20 minutes each time), and the fact that it only stays hot for about an hour. While it seems like a neat idea at first, from a reliable report I've received (thanks, Kel) this product may have some problems.
