Abstract: A rechargeable, reusable heated hand grip for use on a ski pole, shovel or other cold weather hand-held tool or object is provided. The hand grip includes a bushing for receiving the end of a tubular object and retaining the object within a bore in the central core of the hand grip, which compresses around the bushing for tight engagement. A wire-wound heating element is wrapped around the exterior surface of the central core and an outer housing surrounds the heating element and the central core. The bore houses a pair of lithium-ion batteries connected in series, a switch with the switch control protruding from the top of the grip, and a printed circuit board connected to the switch.

Abstract: A heated hand grip for use on a ski pole, shovel or other cold weather hand-held tool or object is provided. The hand grip includes a bushing for receiving the end of a tubular object, such as a ski pole, and retaining the object within a cavity/bore of a central core of the hand grip. The hand grip is compressed around the bushing for tight engagement. A heating element is wrapped around the exterior surface of the central core and an outer housing surrounds the heating element and the central core. In a preferred embodiment, the outer housing is a pour-over fluid state material that is solidified. In another preferred embodiment, the heating element is a wire-wound heating element laid out in a pattern on a fiberglass backing material. In still another preferred embodiment, the bore houses a pair of lithium-ion batteries connected in series (referred to as the “battery”). A switch is also housed in the bore, with the switch control (such as a push button) protruding from the top of the grip.
