Minute or two in the microwave, toss it in a small foam cooler with a wash cloth over it. Kept the packs toasty all day long. Also corn or beans when heated give off moisture, the cloth also protected the packs from that.

And as a bonus, when I couldn't feel my fingers anymore, that nice hot cloth was a god send.

I picked up the cooler from the local pharmacy. Roughly 12x12x12 and had 3" thick walls. Was something they had meds shipped in. With the warmer inside, I could leave the cooler outside and the packs were still nice and warm.

Given that most of us have foam laying around, either from house repairs or our attempts at model building. That's same naterial basically as the cooler ... so with hot-glue gun and a sharp knife etc. - you could easily knock up a box to keep LiPo's warm in.

I will be doing it oncde I get home ... as winters drop to crazy numbers where I live ..
