Thanko's heating action continues with USB-powered Eye / Seat Warmers

Ah Thanko, how we adore your USB-powered oddities. From Japan's king of off off-the-wall gimmicks that are just too cute to pass over comes two new warming products just in time for the holidays. While we're sure the ladies are already rocking the G-Gloves, and the fellas are mousing it up within the toasty confines of their blue whale, here's two more reasons to leave the central heating unit off this winter. The USB-powered Eye and Seat Warmers (the winterized USBHCU01, pictured after the jump) both feature on / off switches and varying temperature controls, and receive all the power they need to keep you fired up from one of your sure-to-be-unoccupied USB ports. While the company is leaving us out in the cold regarding pricing or availability, we're sure these will be stuffing stockings everywhere in just a few weeks.

maybe now they can also invent a usb-powered-teeth-whitening kit for this dude...

I dont hate this idea but what would this do to your battery life?

Could be great for a long flight.

Reminds me of those old pirate movies when they'd blind someone using a hot fireplace poker to cook someone's eye's optics, blinding them.

hmm.... usb-powered arabian sungoggles?

those might actually come in handy after my eyes become all cold and dry after long hours of nonstop PS3/Wii gaming

Is it me, or does the heated pad he's putting over his face look really dirty? I wouldn't want to do that.

I suppose that as long as Sony isn't making them, no one will get burned.

Whats next?? A USB Dildo?

A USB vibrator (and we're not talking one for back massages) already exists (http://www.blissbox.com/store/detail.asp?productid=1516).

The only USB dildo a quick Google search turned up appeared to be a fake product (unlike the vibrator above).
