An electrically heated single sleeve device for warming a single arm of a user, comprising:
- a sleeve extending between a proximal end and a distal end for receiving the arm of the user;
- the sleeve including an interior layer for engaging the arm of the user, a central layer comprising a heating element comprised of a far infrared material, and an outer layer of a water resistant material;
- a shoulder cover connected to the proximal end of the sleeve for covering a shoulder of the user, the shoulder cover including a front region configured to cover a front portion of the user's shoulder, and a back region opposite the front region and configured to cover a rear portion of the user's shoulder;
- a first strap extending from the front region of the shoulder cover and configured to overlie a chest of the user, a second strap extending from the back region of the shoulder cover and configured to overlie a back of the user, and a hook and loop fastening device located adjacent to an end of each of the first and second straps and configured to detachably connect the first and second straps to one another to provide quick attachment and removal of the first and second straps to one another, and wherein the hook and loop fastening device of at least one of the first and second straps extends across substantially an entirety of a width of the strap;
- the sleeve defining at least one pocket adjacent to the proximal end of the sleeve and adjacent to the shoulder cover;
- a connection plug electrically connected to the heating element and received in the pocket;
- a battery pack removeably positioned inside the pocket and detachably connected to the connection plug and including a battery for providing power to the heating element, and including a controller configured to activate a plurality of heating modes of the heating element;
- a first power button positioned on the battery pack and configured to allow a user to select one of the plurality of heating modes;
- a second power button disposed on the sleeve adjacent to the distal end and electrically connected to the controller for allowing the user to select one of the plurality of heating modes;
- the controller further configured to deactivate the heating element after a predetermined period of time;
- a first light source positioned inside the first power button and configured to illuminate the first power button to one of a plurality of different colors based on the selected one of the plurality of heating modes;
- and
- a second light source positioned inside the second power button and configured to illuminate the second power button to one of a plurality of different colors based on the selected one of the plurality of heating modes;
- wherein the sleeve device does not include more than one sleeve.
