I will be making a 24 hour shipment tomorrow and they last 18 with the temp being mid seventy's in both the origin and destination with low's in the lower 50's. I ran out of regular heat packs and was wondering if these would work.
Any one use these as heat packs?

Yeah but they will be in a styrofoam box and the temps should reach mid seventies tomorrow as in 78-79 so I'm thinking they should be fine. I'll bag them all seperately just to prevent any issues that may occur from spreading. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this product.crowconor;2758456; said:
I've never used them for fish but I know u have to rub them about every hour to keep them hot but i'm sure they would still stay warm enough for most fish at least I would think
DONT..... read the fine print on the back..... IF they dont get shacking up they BURN... I wounldnt trust it. On the back it says dont leave in pockets, I have done this in a packpack and grab it hours later and it was Really hot... I cant remember the brand right now but they have some that are like heater blankets..... why not run a bat powered one? dont think they last 24hrs but idk
After some thought about outside temps at the destination and my place with a styrofoam box I have decided to not use a heat pack at all. It would be way too hot when the outside temp hits 70 tomorrow (probably 90 or so in the bags but its just a guess) I think they will be just fine. Thanks for the input guys.
