12 V heated seat cover — warm in three minutes

A cover that heats the seat base and the backrest, plugged into the cigarette lighter. It comes up to temperature in three minutes, well before the engine has enough to run the cabin heating.

Key points
  • Heats the seat base and the backrest: the warmth loosens the lower back, exactly where cold stiffens it.
  • Ready well before the cabin heating, which depends on the engine.
  • Two-position switch: heat hard at first, then hold.
  • Cigarette lighter plug with built-in fuse: in a short circuit, that is what blows.
  • 12 V — car, van, motorhome on a leisure battery.

Description

The first ten minutes, in winter

A cold engine produces no heat: the heater blows cold air for the first quarter of an hour, and on a modern diesel, longer still. A heated seat does not depend on the engine — it draws on the battery and warms up straight away. For a twenty-minute journey, it is the only source of heat that arrives in time.

Your back, not just the seat base

The heating elements cover the seat base and the backrest. That is what counts for a bad back in cold weather: heat loosens the lower back, exactly where cold stiffens it.

Two levels, and a fuse

A two-position switch lets you heat hard at first and then hold. The cigarette lighter plug has a built-in fuse: in a short circuit, that is what blows, not the car's wiring.

Choosing the right spot

The front covers are sold individually, driver's side or passenger's side. The bench version covers the rear seat. Each has its own cable: if you fit two seats, plan on a cigarette lighter splitter.

Worth knowing

  • 12 V — car, van, motorhome on a leisure battery.
  • Never leave it heating with the engine off for hours: the drain is real.
  • Mind the side airbags : do not pull the cover tight over the side of the backrest.
  • Free shipping within mainland France, with no minimum order.
  • 14 days to change your mind, returns accepted with no reason required.

When it earns its place

The first ten minutes in winter

A cold engine produces no heat: the heater blows cold air for the first quarter of an hour, and longer on a modern diesel. The heated seat, by contrast, does not depend on the engine.

The twenty-minute journey

On a short journey, it is the only source of heat that arrives in time: the cabin heating never gets the chance.

A bad back in cold weather

The heating elements cover the backrest too, and that is what counts: the warmth loosens the lower back that cold stiffens.

The car without the heated seats option

The equipment of a higher trim level, for the price of a tank of fuel, with nothing changed for good.

Questions we are asked about this product

Does it heat up quickly?

About three minutes, which is well before the engine has enough to run the cabin heating. That is precisely the point on a short journey.

Can I use it with a side airbag?

A word of caution: do not pull the cover tight over the side of the backrest, nothing must obstruct the airbag deployment. Check whether your seat has one — it is marked on the side.

Can you fit two seats?

Yes, but each cover has its own cable: plan on a cigarette lighter splitter. The front covers are sold individually, and a bench version covers the rear.

Does it drain the battery?

Not while driving, the alternator makes up for it. With the engine off, the draw is real: do not leave it heating for hours when parked.

Does it work in a motorhome?

Yes, at 12 V on a leisure battery, as in a car or a van.
