  Location: Doylestown, OH | I just got off of the phone with a reputable dealer that my vet recommended that I call about renting a magnetic blanket for my horse to see if it made a diffference. I just about died when he said that the cost was $350 a month to rent it (with 80% going to purchase price) or $6675 to purchase outright. I just about died!! Are there really products out there that are that much better than the others?!?!?!?!?! |

    Location: Georgia | After reading another post the other day, I found the PHT magnetic sheets (the mesh one, not the slinky) for $350 (plus shipping) at Hurley's Western Wear. The site referenced earlier has the same sheet priced at $385 (not sure about shipping). Has anyone else found them any cheaper...the real ones? |

        Location: Somewhere but really not Anywhere | NOPE, you are probably not the one confused, its Thursday, Spring Break is next week and my students and I are ready for it!!! I heard people talking about Mag. Blanket and Mag Sheets, I am wondering IF they are meaning the same thing...I heard about them on this board and the more I read, the more I am wanting one, I checked w/ Hurley's on the sheets too, but I was wondering if there is such thing as a blanket ???!!!! or is the same meaning! When you find out, please let me know! |

        Location: I'm lost - please tell me, I'm not on BHW again!!! | I will, I just can't imagine having a Mag. Blanket for $6,675 or getting for $350 a month. That just floors me especially since I paid $300 and something. I can't remember now, it's been a while, but I really like it. Ummm???? I'll find out!!! |

   Location: North Texas | I am getting them sooooo much cheaper then that or PHT or anything else. I am getting them for under $100. They are very nice and work just like those high dollar ones do.

   Location: Weatherford, TX | I have heard of magnetic blankets being probably that much in today's money. The one I had heard about was 13 years ago and was called something like an "electromagnetic" blanket (sp?). It was close to $4,000 13 years ago. So yeah, probably now something like that would be around that or higher. I am not really sure how it worked, but it was powered somehow and you left it on before/after competition for so many minutes/hours. Maybe SG could shed some light? |
