There’s simply no area in life where Xiaomi wouldn’t have any unexpected ideas - which is one of the reasons we love them so much.

90FUN Stylish Hooded Down Jacket from Xiaomi youpin - $ 139,00

One of the well-known manufacturer's sub-brands, the 90fen jacket, turned a blind eye. At first glance, the product does not show any shocking things: IPX7 certification (water resistance) or gabardine material (densely woven wool fabric, which is perfectly customizable and comfortable). From the feather-lined jacket to this point, we would assume that it could be ideal primarily in the fall months, as the pictures don’t make it look as thick as not to freeze underneath in the winter. Well, then now may come the surprise!

The jacket really only looks like an ordinary product from the outside, the situation is almost different inside, as it has a very serious electronic heating system. The thing is, we put an external battery (power bank) in one of our pockets, which we will have to connect to the jacket - picture above. When this is done, the jacket converts the energy from the battery into heat, which e.g. we will perceive in the following areas: neck, waist, back. Of course, this mechanism will not always be active, the heating will switch off automatically if the temperature exceeds a certain limit (between 40 ° C and 50 ° C), and we can also switch off the heating ourselves with the help of a button. According to the developers, the system has undergone thorough testing (short circuit and overheating protection), so its use will not be a shocking experience. The black color is fixed, the size can of course be changed: S, M, L, XL and 2XL.

The jacket can be purchased at a discount until October 19 as part of the presale promotion. In fact, it's not a penny of stuff either, and of course it's true that the offer is less convincing in a good warm room than when we're waiting for the bus outside in the minuses…
