Thank you guys for all the feed back, it certainly is nice to have a place where one can go, ask almost any question and get good, honest and sincere answers.

I know more now about heated vests than I ever thoght I'd know
You guys are the best.

 

Chappy, how do the size run when ordering the jacket liner and gloves. From Gerbing's web site their chart show a medium size glove for my hand measurement but I normally wear a LG summer glove (non lined) and an XL lined winter glove.

 

Hi Indyrider,
My jacket heated liner is an X large, same as I would take as a regular light weight jacket.
I did try it on though.
Myheatedgloves are the liners and theyare large andd fit very well under my x-large waterproof gloves. butI tried them on first to make sure.
My heavy weight leather gloves are x-large and I don't think my heated liners would fit very well, but I never have tried.

If you check out the sizes of Harley heated jacket liner and gloves,
they are probably the same size to label as the gerbing, since Gerbing is who makes Harley heated gear.
With gloves, the only time I've had a hard time getting sizes to match reality is the leather gloves at swap meets. They tend to run on the small side.

Not much help,
good luck

Thanks for the update on the glove liners, hadn't seen them before. I just checked them out on Gerbings web site, currently sold out, but before next winter. I had an aerostitch heated vest a few years back, very good product but I still managed to get cold. Switched to a Gerbings jacket liner and gloves, love them. Also Gerbings warrantees their heating elements for life.

 

I bought a heated vest from Gerbing. I turned it on once- the day I got it. It was too warm, and now I just use it for a wiring harness for my gloves.

I just sent an HD-branded glove back to Gerbing because it quit working just after the HD warranty expired. I just got a brand new pair in the mail from Gerbing to replace the bad glove I sent them.

I am now a satisfied Gerbing customer for life. I wish every company knew the value of good customer service.

 

Heated vest here. Can't believe I went so long without one. The deciding factor was a 6-hour ride home from Sudbury when it was 2 degrees. It's always in the saddlebag.

Ditto here. The Gerbling jacket liner is so thin and it packs the size of a nurf football. Yet it keeps your upper torso including tour arms and neck toasty. Get the adjustable controller.

 

Use a thermostat and you won't have this problem. If you're using the liner and gloves, you will want the duel controler. Gloves always need to be turned up higher than Jacket.
