Enjoy Comfortable & Safe Winter Travel


It's that time of year again, when the whole family piles into the car, heading to this year's holiday destination. Whether you're spending the holidays with Grandma and Grandpa or trekking up to the slopes for some weekend skiing, you can make your wintertime road trip much more comfortable and safe with the addition of a few smart products.

Comfort
It's inevitable. Two people get in a car, and one freezes while the other broils. But now you can put the "too hot"/"too cold" argument to rest with a 12V Heated Car Seat Cushion that keeps its occupant feeling "just right." It plugs into the standard cigarette lighter/power outlet in your vehicle, keeping the person in the seat toasty warm without roasting the other passengers.

The six-hour drive to Grandma's house can really put the aches and pains in your back muscles. The Memory Foam Car Seat Massager soothes those tight muscles with a 4-zone massage seating pad and a built-in heater. Made of memory foam, the seating pad contours to your body to provide maximum comfort. Powered by either your car's 12-volt outlet or a 120V AC power adapter, you have the flexibility to use the Car Seat Massager at home or in the office.

If you'd prefer a solution that two car occupants can share or one that's easily transportable from one person to another, then we recommend the 12V Electric Travel Blanket. This cozy fleece electric blanket plugs into a vehicle's 12-volt plug and will keep anyone warm and toasty without having to crank up the car heater. It's a great way to keep warm without bothering other occupants who are complaining that it's too hot.


Safety
Even if you have a roadside assistance plan, sometimes it's just not worth the wait for something you can do in a few minutes, like putting on your spare tire. You'll be able to perform this task even faster with the Geared Lug Wrench. Unlike ratchets, which can slip off lug nuts and round the edges, the Geared Lug Wrench "holds" two lug nuts at once, securing it more firmly and providing increased leverage and tire-changing speed.

Never leave on a road trip without the Rechargeable Emergency System. Throw away those old booster cables: This system not only contains booster cables but also the power to jumpstart your car - no more waiting for another car to save you. Not only that, the built-in air compressor easily re-inflates your tires. There's even an adapter that lets you charge your cell phone.

Ever find yourself dozing off on those long drives? Avoid falling asleep at the wheel with the Drive Alert Master. Similar to a Bluetooth cell phone headset, the device loops over your ear. As soon as your head begins to nod, the Drive Alert master will jolt you awake with a loud beep.

Long trips can really take its toll on your vehicle. Make sure you get there safely by making sure your car is in tip-top shape with the Digital Tire Gauge. With a press of a button, the backlit digital readout displays the precise tire pressure reading to ensure that your tires are properly inflated.

It's always a good idea to keep a flashlight handy. The Magnetic Emergency Flashlight may be the one that saves your life. Bright and compact, this multifunction flashlight has a built-in hammer to break car windows, a cutter to slice seat belts and a flasher light to alert others in an emergency. A magnetic mount allows it to be placed conveniently within reach in your vehicle.


Convenience
Traveling somewhere you're not familiar with? Then keep on track - and keep posted of what climate conditions you'll be driving through - with the Wayfinder V7000. It's not only a precise, digital compass, it's also an altimeter, a barometer, a weather forecaster and an indoor/outdoor thermometer. It even features an ice alert function that alerts you when the temperature reaches 35� F to warn you of potentially icy roads.

Visiting a new city or just directionally challenged? Get to where you need to be with the Magellan RoadMate 3050T Portable GPS. Preloaded with detailed maps of the United States, Puerto Rico and Canada, the device provides precise turn-by-turn voice directions to any address, intersection or point of interest, including gas stations, ATMs, rest areas and more. Best of all, the included TrafficKit supplies real-live traffic information so you can avoid traffic jams and accidents to get you to your location quickly and safely. Moreover, the unit also functions as a digital music player and picture viewer.

Visiting family is great, but those long drives can get lonely. The miles will melt by with the accompaniment of your favorite tunes. Take your entire music collection with you on your iPod and bring it all on the road with the Monster iPod FM Transmitter & Charger. Just plug the transmitter into your car's cigarette lighter socket, and your favorite songs will play on any FM station on your car stereo.

Need to charge your laptop computer or other electrical device requiring a standard plug? Then bring one with you! The 300W Power Inverter plugs into the cigarette lighter or 12V power outlet (or can be clamped to car battery terminals) and provides an outlet for any standard electrical device.
