I'm living the 17 C life too, it's not as bad as I thought it would be. Took a week or so to get used to it.
Working behind a computer is still annoying though, even when standing at my desk I'm still too immobile to keep warm. 8€ usb heated gloves help a bit, but still. Otherwise it's not so bad.
- pomatic 4y agoTry a far infra-red heater. They heat bodies, rather than space. Hung on the ceiling over a desk, they are great balance between expense, space-heating and keeping warm.
- wcoenen 4y agoCold hands/feet are a consequence of your body deciding that it needs to reduce blood flow (which implies heat loss) to those extremities, in order to keep your core temperature stable with minimal energy expenditure. Therefore, heating your torso might work better than trying to heat your hands. Googling for electrically heated garments typically leads to some dodgy looking cheap products though. I would have a look at body warmers sold by power tool brands to go with their battery platform. E.g. I already have LXT batteries for my Makita power tools, so I'm considering buying something like the DCV202Z vest.
