This Conductive Heating Fabric provides lightweight, flexible heat for wearable projects, thermal experiments, and custom heating applications, with temperature controlled by the applied voltage.

<>

This is hot! Literally! Apply 5-12VDC and the stainless steel fibres in this heating fabric will warm up, creating a little heating pad. On one hand, it's just a gigantic resistor. On the other hand, it's flexible, light, and can be wrapped around a project. Originally designed for portable wearable heating pads, this fabric can be used for wearables, weather balloons, DIY-bio projects, thermal cycling for materials testing, etc.

The temperature reached varies with voltage. This piece is 10cm long, so look in the spec sheets in the resources section for a table of voltage/current/temperature outputs. You could PWM it with a power N-channel transistor if you want to have finer temperature control.
