I paid $165 when they were on a special discount and it came with the extra clip on battery torch, the high capacity battery I purchased was another $45 - 50 ?They look alright hornet.
How much for one of those?
One of my better winter purchases to stay warm in the night air.
Seems quite decent for something like that. How long does the battery last for?

Re: Electric jackets
I'm trying to remember but on the last trip I think I was alternating between medium and low heat at about 10 or 11pm and turned it off at 6 or 7am..Lightningx wrote: ↑Mon Jul 15, 2019 6:40 pmThanks hornet.hornet wrote: ↑Mon Jul 15, 2019 10:50 am

I use an 18volt 5.2ah battery. it wasn't flat I turned it off.
I don't know how much longer it would have worked on high setting ? .. On high it gets very toasty and sort of uncomfortable, I think this setting is for snowy areas.

Re: Electric jackets
One of the guys at work has a Milwaukee version, he swears by it and believes because it keeps his body warm, his body conserves the energy it would’ve used up trying to keep warm - resulting in being less fatigued at the end of the day in winter

Re: Electric jackets
You can get electric underwear too. $300 is a bit steep though - you can make your own with a few dozen AA batteries and some naked copper wire.

Re: Electric jackets
Thanks for the information fella's
Aaron we did that on a mates bucks turn, 12volt battery and jumper leads, he sobered up quick
These days if I'm outside, I can't keep warm..
When I was 18 I swam the Goulburn river in winter, can't do it now
Please bring back my youth
Cheers Gra
