use a bag in the bag setup. the inner bag is filled with hot water, the outer bag with warm water. this will protect against scalding if the inner bag were to burst, avoid the problem of the bag being too hot initially, and stay warm longer.

Create a "flask" to keep a reserve hot water bottle hot. When your hot water bottle has cooled, you open the flask (probably by your bed) and use the new one
