I suggest a portable heater producing warmth with stored static electricity, which is generated easily and frequently in winter.
The idea is inspired by a special shell called Electric Flame Scallop, a type of shell generating and storing electricity.
In winter, when you brush your hair, static electricity with a voltage of 4000~8000v is generated.
It is equivalent to the voltage of 2666~5333 units of 1.5v batteries.
So, I combined a comb with a portable heater to store the static electricity generated when the user brushes her hair and to transform the electricity into heat, useful for our daily life.
