Question 1

Is the heating pad flexible or plastic like less expensive models?

Accepted Answer

It's heavier and thicker than most heating pads but yet flexible.  My wife loves this heating pad and she's been using heating pads for fifteen years (BAD BACK).  Try it you'll like it..

Question 2

does the control light up when you use it

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately no it does not light up. That is the only complaint I have. Other then that it has been the best heating pad I have ever owned!

Question 3

What is the electrical rating of this pad? Just bought the theratherm and it makes house lights flicker....

Accepted Answer

Ha! Yours do too!?? Mine do that as well! I had our neighbor come out that's a master electrician and he squirted it's from 2 things, a bad GFI either in the wall/outlet, the house isn't grounded properly, and the 3rd thing (our culprit), is that from the way our house is wired. I crank mine up really hot so it'll draw a lot of power, that intern makes the lights flicker every second. However built the house were renting put in 5 & 10amp outlets (the minimum for code) and that might do it.  I do know the house had bad wiring here. I got told by the 3 electricians that came out that that's a dangerous thing to have happen and could cause a fire but it hasn't yet and I use it all day every day. I'll agree though, this thing shouldn't draw as much power as a hairdryer though. This is the same company as thermophore. They're known to have units burn out, have wiring problems, and actually turn black and smoke.  So l, I'd say the culprit is definitely the actual hearing pad (maybe also mixed with the minimum wiring amperage). It just draws WAY too much power and WAY more than what it states on the remote. This is the only one I know of that'll get this hot and that's why I love it but I've went through about 15 of them in about 5 years. They'll end up getting sued one day because someone will burn themselves or it'll start a fire and someone will die. It's definitely not safe but it really helps me.

Question 4

Is it flexible enough to loosely wrap around?

Accepted Answer

This heating pad is fairly heavy, so it might not "loosely" wrap around.  I actually sleep on mine, because you can adjust the temperatures to the exact temperature that you prefer.  Another "plus" is that it is longer than most heating pads.
