There's nothing like heading outdoors when the weather dips, as long as you have the proper gear. Staying inside too can be just as fun, as long as your space is warm and comfortable. So whether you're a snowboarder, someone who likes being outside as the snow drifts, tech can deliver the warm feels.

Snuggling up inside? That's great too when your home is kitted with devices that keeps the chill where it belongs — outside. Here are six gadgets to help you survive the winter months, perhaps save some energy and even a few dollars from your utility bill.

Control the humidity at home through your iOS or Android deviceSharper Image

One of the after-effects of a winter climate is the dryness, which can make your skin feel itchy and even change your mood. Adding a bit of humidity in the air can help make a space instantly more comfortable. The $199.99 Wi-Fi Ultrasonic Humidifier works as a standard humidifying device, but it also connected to Wi-Fi meaning you can run it from your iOS or Android mobile device. That allows you to keep the climate in your home in comfortable shape even while you're out.

The size is large, like a small coffee table, which means it can handle rooms of up to 500 square feet. And you can seat it on a wire pedestal or on the floor.

You can even charge your phone through a USB port in the vest. You can pick one sized for both men and women, although the former can find the vest currently on sale for just $115.
