Looking for heated gear at least a jacket liner and gloves and after reading reviews it looks like its down to these two brands. Some donot like Gerrbings controllers. " I am researched brain dead" who has what out there and what do you like and dislike? Would you buy it again? Thanks for the help.

These HD gloves get toasty warm, much more so than even the other gear. I have the jacket liner, pants, and dual rotary controller. Even turned to half way, the gloves got hottest of all, and that was on totally exposed FatBoy bars with no windshield. If they got any hotter, I couldn't wear them. At full blast, they're probably good to -20F without a liner. I'm only good to about +35F myself!

Gerbings, jacket, pants,gloves and socks with dual controller. Had one issue with one glove not heating and the pair were replaced free of charge. Ride all year round, coldest was minus seven and I was actually sweating. Mind you I wear this under an Aerostitch suit during cold months.

Gerbings jacket liner and gloves and powerlet wireless controller. If you do get the Gerbings you can get 20% off at Grand Prix Motorsports at 303-761-2471 and talk to Tracy. Great People!!!

My Gerbings gear (including dual controller) has been flawless. Highly recommend
I have 1st gear non heated stuff. No complaints there either.

Most come with a harness you mount directly to the battery including its own fuse.

Another vote for Gerbing. I have both my bike and my wifes bike wired to plug their stuff in. We both have windshields, so gloves have always been enough for us.

Gerbings from neck to toe here. Bought the FirstGear/Warm&Safe wireless controller recently, but I'll carry the Gerbings dual controller along in case something goes hairy with the wireless one.
