Default Tourmaster Heated Clothing

I have been looking at some heated riding clothes and it looks like Tourmaster Synergy is, by far, the cheapest. I am wondering if anyone on here has any experience with these. Pros... Cons?

The only heated clothing I've ever tried is Gerbings. Worth every cent. No way I'd buy anything else.

But that's just me. Other's opinions will vary.

i have never heard of that brand but I will check them out. Apparently, the Harley brand gear is on a long backorder and some gerbings stuff is too. I was going to look at the Powerlet gear when it arrives at the Harley dealer this week. Even the local Harley dealers are going to stock a different brand because they cant get Harley gear which I believe is made by Gerbings.

I have the Tourmaster jacket liner and my wife has the Firstgear liner.Both heat extremely well and were worth every penny.The only difference I can see is the controllers are different,the Tourmaster has a button switch with low/med/hi and the Firstgear is a rotary dial.I never have mine on high(and I use it for snowmobiling also,it gets too hot).I also have the Powerlet glove liners that plug into the jacket liner,worth it.

I run the clothing from cozywinters.com. I believe it is called Warmgear. Works great and is not too expensive.

Have had the Tourmaster heated jacket and chaps and FirstGear gloves for a couple months now. Work great so far. Jacket came with a dual controller, one side for jacket and the other for chaps and gloves. Was 18* when I left for work the other morning and I had to turn the jacket down. Wish I had done this years ago.

I have the Tourmaster 2.0 jacket liner and the gloves, works great with no issues. The wife has the same and loves them, now she can ride all year here in NC.
It's not Gerbings or the HD brand, why would that matter in the first place?

+1 on the Warmgear. I have their heated gloves and socks. Good quality product and the price is right.

Bought the vest they have a couple years back, works great when I need it. Rarely have it set above the low setting, stays plenty warm.

Tourmaster has been around awhile and prices on their heated gear is great. Sure they are made offshore by slave labor, so is the gerbing harley stuff, but should work ok if they work to begin with.
