eagleeye Posted December 14, 2014 Share #1 Posted December 14, 2014 Does anyone use the gloves alone, without the vest/jacket, etc.? I was thinking about hippo hands too. My hands are the one part of me that gets cold beyond the comfort range that is acceptable to me. I was trying to imagine running the cord from the gloves to ??? I think normally they plug into the jacket/vest, right? I'm looking for suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awsmsrv Posted December 14, 2014 Share #2 Posted December 14, 2014 I rode my RSV for 7 years in Seattle & only had the gloves & I was perfectly comfortable (rode year round unless ice on the roads). Now I'm back in SoCal & haven't needed the heat yet. During winters up there, I'd just put in my windproof, waterproof liners in my MC pants & jacket.

eagleeye Posted December 15, 2014 Author Share #5 Posted December 15, 2014 (edited) Thanks, I'd be interested in trying the Hippo hands, and have time (as you know, winter is here) to look around. Edited December 15, 2014 by eagleeye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BratmanXj Posted December 15, 2014 Share #6 Posted December 15, 2014 Powerlet rapidFIRe Heated Glove Liner Kit - RevZilla I use heated glove liners, wife has the matching socks too. If its cold I can wear my insulated leather gauntlets, if its raining I can wear the waterproof textile gloves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagleeye Posted December 15, 2014 Author Share #7 Posted December 15, 2014 Perfect! Those are the ones that I'm looking at. They had a glove liner kit which included the wires and controler but it is discontinued. I have an email off to them to check on it. I also have their phone number to call. I have so many pairs of different types of gloves that I think the liners would be the way to go for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oconeedan Posted March 10, 2015 Share #8 Posted March 10, 2015 I know this is an older thread, but I wanted to chime in. I have Gerbing S2 battery heated gloves. They work well. BUT, have a smaller cuff and it's hard to get over my jacket sleeves. My jacket is not overly bulky. I actually have to work them over my sleeves. I complained to them and the seller (The Warming Store), their answer was that the newer S3 gloves have larger cuffs. I like them but would not buy them again. I would consider the S3 gloves if they have a return if not happy policy. Again, the gloves work well, but have dinky cuffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
