Abstract
A travel iron with a plastic housing defining a hot water reservoir, with a plastic sole plate as its lower surface. An immersible PTC resistor is used to heat the water and to protect the iron from overheating. The heated water heats the sole plate and serves to control the temperature of the sole plate. The handle is reversible and is secured to the forward end of the housing. When reversed the handle provides a winding area about which the electrical cord may be wound for storage.
