Burning up and its only 42F during the ride

[ks-waterbug]

Ok, so back in October I decide that I want to try and get something thats going to keep me toasty warm for those winter blast while out on two wheels. I start hitting the web sites looking for that perfect winter jacket when I come across these $99 Heated Liner ever the skeptic but still Very interested cause of the name sake I take the plunge. I must of waited 6 weeks to get this thing direct from the manufacture cause of an order backlog... Something told me backlog equals Great Product and boy was I correct! Let me tell you this the days of cold riding are long gone with this puppy on. It has five heat settings ranging from low to high and the best part is ITS BATTERY POWERED! Yep, no chords to plug in, no worries about wiring it up, and YES you can wear it to that football or hockey game. Best part is the thing simply works... I wore mine the other day for roughly four hours on high and it just about cooked me out of my jacket! So, if your in the market for staying warm I suggest you check one of these bad boys out and for just under $100 you can't go wrong!

Great review...I've been looking for a heated gear solution without the additional mess of cabling and powering from the bike. And the battery pack is rechargeable.

Yep rechargable and so far very dependable... Like I said the only downside is these things are in demand. So, depending on what size you wear there could be a delay in getting one. After having mine and riding with it I decided to imediately order the wifey one as well....

They must have been popular. "SOLD OUT OF ALL SIZES".

Thanks for the heads-up! I really like the battery powered part...

Explain the sizes? Did you go with what "normally" fits you so you could expand if needed?

Yes, the sizes run pretty ture to size... The liner comes with double zippers on each side of the jacket. Undoing one gives the user another inch or so of stretchy room. So, they are pretty universal.. Here's a crappy picture from my phone!

Thanks, Bug. Looks like a great way to beat the seeping cold monster.

I'll be down for two (2). It's one of those things I would not use much but when you needed it..it's there.

Looks like easy storage also for those "caught in the cold" times.

Very nice. I priced some other brands yesterday and they were way more than this one.
