Re: Winter riders check this out.
Sounds like a bargain. I've got a Jett heated vest, but it was considerably more than twenty squid.

Nice one, I know this is is cheap. But honestly if it lasts the winter I will be so chuffed. I only have a 17 mile commute to work so I can just leave it on all the way. Cool, or rather hot lol.

Re: Winter riders check this out.
My commute is around 35-40 minutes each way. That's new batteries for both trips each day. Not so sure that's such a good investment.
Off the bike I'd say yes. But not as a commuting tool. |

Re: Winter riders check this out.
6AA batteries = 9v, so you couldn't direct wire it to your bike if you wanted....
...mind you it May heat up quicker than 5 minutes! |
Re: Winter riders check this out.
Its ok for short trips. My ride is 17 miles each way, I switch on when I leave ride the 17 miles its gets warm not hot about halfway and the batteries last me a week. Or if they are rechargeables then I have to charge them twice a week. So its ok for short cold trips but i agree not an ideal commuter kit. Probably best go for the http://www.jett.us.com/ as commented by Wydness above, afterall its a get what you pay for product to be fair. Mine was only twenty quid.

Re: Winter riders check this out.
I have lots of rechargeable AA's but yes running it off the bike would be better.
