Electric blankets are bed coverings that are provided with insulated wires sewn into fabric layers and a control unit that can adjust the amount of heat generated according to the temperature of the surroundings. These blankets are mostly manufactured using wool, cotton, polyester or acrylic materials with an internally integrated wiring system that provides heat and warmth through the coil wires. The blankets are plugged into an electrical outlet and are used for pre-heating the bed or keeping the user warm and are commonly available in over and under blanket variants. They also consist of a control unit that enables the user to adjust the heat produced by the device as per comfort. The material blend prevents potential fire hazards and aids in entrapping and maintaining warmth on the sheet for longer durations.
