    Question:
    I cannot sense any usable warmth from the hand warmers on my ST224. With care I can detect a very small amount of heat, but not enough to be useful.
    Details:

    To quantify the problem I wrapped one handle in insulation with a thermometer inserted next to the bottom part of the handle.  After 10 minutes of running at full speed, the thermometer rose from 38 degrees F to about 39.5 degrees.  A 1.5 degree increase in temperature is of little value as a warming device.  I'm sure you have some way of measuring the output from the warmers.  What should I expect?  Thank you.

      The entire machine lacks appeal ...hand warmers, rear back up gear, backfire, dies under load, hard to maneuver the beat goes on....anyone should stay clear of this ST-224
