How is the poncho different from an ORORO heated jacket?

It has no sleeves and drapes over you like a blanket, so it covers the lap and seat as well as the back. A jacket is better for moving around; the poncho is better for sitting still.

How long does the heat last?

Up to 8 hours on low with the included 4800 mAh batteries. High heat drains them much faster, so carry the second battery for long outings.

Yes, it is machine washable. Remove both batteries and disconnect the wiring first, then follow the care label.

Does it come with batteries?

Yes, two Mini 5K rechargeable batteries are included, along with the charging cable. A 5V/3A wall charger is not included.

It measures 68 inches long by 42 inches wide, with a hood. That is long enough to cover the lap and legs of most adults when seated.

Can two people share it?

Not really. It is sized for one person, though the dual controls let you heat the upper and lower zones differently.
