A must for heated gear

A must if you have heated gloves. The batteries in my Gerbing gloves last about 2 hours on the lowest setting. On long journeys, leaving before dawn, I needed to keep my hand warm longer. Maybe all day! The only solution was a direct connection to the motorcycle's electrical system. So I got this along with a heated Gerbing jacket liner (which offers a separate chain for the gloves) and riding in 40 degree weather is no longer a problem. Warm hands and warm body at the same time!

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Secret

Perfectly warms balaclava and gloves. It just annoys me that I have to spend extra money on a controller and Gerbing doesn't include it in the price of their heated devices! You can't wear heated clothes without a controller, believe me I've tried, but without a controller the device gets too hot. You just have to suck up the price on the controller. Otherwise, you'll have to constantly unplug and plug it back in to cool down.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Not bad

Bulky but functional

Good product. Does what it claims to do. I would prefer one of the wireless or permanent options as it's just cumbersome. You need to find a place to stow while riding so you still have access to the handlebars. And the wires are long and interfere with almost everything. I'm sure I'll come up with something. The digital display is good, the independent controls are good. (The on/off click is crisp, so if you're wearing gloves and need to juggle in your pocket, you'll know where you are in theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Doubtful

A dual zone controller is required.

Oh my god I use this with a jacket lining under a long sleeve blue denim work shirt under a long cozy quilted vest. The vest prevents the wind from carrying heat away from the lower back. For maximum comfort, try a thin polypropylene/polyester base layer with long sleeves and fleece on the skin under the lining of the jacket. Don't use cotton next to your skin, it will retain moisture and you'll catch a cold. A snood around the neck keeps the heat well away from the collar. We have justโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • Expensive

Not Old Gerbing

I ride my bike year round so I rely on heated gear to keep me going during the cold months. I had an old Gerbing balaclava, gloves and controller and switched to the new digital dual controller, jacket and pants when the old controller and balaclava became unreliable due to a short in the connectors. The new dual controller has separate controls for the jacket and gloves (heated pants connect to the accessory slot in the jacket). When comparing the old controller to the new one, the wires onโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Good Thing
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
