Heated gloves

Cruzndude · 10-15-2012, 12:07 PM

I'm looking to get some heated gloves. Does anyone have any recommendations? Do I have to get ones with a controller and all the wires that go with it? Or can I just get self contained ones? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

I rode at 15 degrees last winter.
Gerbings gloves, jacket liner and dual controller.

battery heated gloves, TC has some

Grip heaters are probably about as cheap and you don't have to worry about being tethered to the bike. Batteries wear out (in the middle of nowhere in sub zero temps).

I'll put in another vote on the Gerbing's gloves, and I just use the on/off controller

Amen! Worth every penny! At 30* I had to turn jacket & gloves down to low. Good stuff!

Looking at gerbings or other heated gear - what do you really need for a bike set up? I find gloves, liners and all kinds of controllers and cables, but what do I need for a Glove/jacket set up?

If someone is riding a motorcycle in the middle of nowhere in sub zero temps they should freeze to death because their an idiot.

The batteries in our gloves are lithium and rechargeable. Have 3 settings. I like them as I am not tethered to the bike.

That's kinda harsh, don't ya think? What about the Canadian and/or Alaskan riders? What about the off road riders? What about the snowmobilers? Not a motorcycle but they're still riding in the middle of nowhere in sub zero temps.

BTW, "their" should have been "they're".

Good point.

sorry four my incompetence in the inglish language

I really don't know why anyone would ride in below zero temperatures

Riding is supposed to be fun and that doesn't sound like fun to me.

well tc we all have different kinds of fun some like the cold i dont thats why i bought the gerbings im not tethered to the bike one wire that unplugs rather quickly doesnt make me feel tethered or tied to bike but is does keep me warm so it does its job and extends my riding season

Corigan · 10-16-2012, 10:39 AM

Gerbings G3's here. Don't even have to turn them on until it gets super cold.

russ56 · 10-16-2012, 10:51 AM

TC, which gloves do you have and how long do batteries last on say a medium setting?
