Electric blankets don't have timers to turn on. My understanding is that UL won't certify them as it's a perceived fire hazard.

- noobiemcfoob 8y ago"perceived"? It is a fire hazard.
- dzhiurgis 8y agoBut how? To me it sounds like a safety feature.
- falcolas 8y agoFunny, I owned one. Would still use it if our dog hadn't eaten the coils. Most electric blankets have overheat protections built into them these days, reducing the risk of fire hazards. Aaand after some research I don't see it available anymore on Amazon or elsewhere. Interesting.
