1st time poster, long time lurker. I have done a search for side bending blankets and found a mention to "Omega" silicon blankets for $70. I searched the Omega web site and found no blankets even close to the dimensions for a side bender (most appeared to be square). Does anyone have a link for blankets this size? Thanks!

You won't find a blanket at the price you are looking for. The blankets are 5 watts per inch and come in a number of sizes that will do the job

Many of us here have bought our blankets as well as other accessories from John. He's the best!

Oh I can be..........because, I AM sparticus. Many thanks for the link, lots of good stuff over there. It won't be the last time I wander around at that link. I thought that price was a little unrealistic.

Find it at this link: http://www.omega.com/ppt/pptsc.asp?ref= ... Nav=heam01
Its SGRG-636 I believe which stands for 6" wide x 36" long. It was $76.00 when I bought it. You will have to add a plug which is pretty easy.
