Everything you need to know.
How does a cordless heated lunchbox work? +
A built-in rechargeable battery warms your food gently and evenly. Press start, or set the timer and let it come up to temperature while you work.
How long does the battery last? +
Two to three full heating cycles per charge — comfortably a full workday, and most blokes get two or three days out of one charge.
Do I need power on site? +
No. That's the whole point. Charge it at home overnight and it runs entirely off its own battery all day.
Will it leak in my toolbox? +
The stainless inner seals shut and the outer shell is impact-rated. It's built to be thrown in the tray, not carried carefully.
Is it easy to clean? +
The stainless container lifts out and goes straight in the dishwasher. Wipe the outer shell down and you're done.
