    Hey, looking for gloves that have batteries in them, or a way of charging them to to keep hands warm. Any shops in dublin have them?
    Thanks.

    Try asking in the motorbike section.

    A friend of mine had some a few years ago.

    Also had battery powered boots.

    Work similar to an electric blanket, have seen gloves before but not boots. If ya walked more ya wouldnt need battery powered boots to keep warm!! ;)

    OP what do you want them for and why wont a normal pair of gloves work??

    Ah poor little lad, i hope you find what your looking for. I cant seem to find any online dor kids. A pair of mittins and some gel hand warmers could do the trick while your looking for the gloves

    Be careful applying heat locally, as the child is too young to give proper feedback regarding the effect of same. Gel or charcoal-based warmers could be too hot for him, and could conceivably cause tissue damage.

    Hope he gets a correct diagnosis soon, and that his condition can be treated/managed successfully.

    Not your ornery onager
