    I’m either going to procrastinate on these until the weather means I don’t need them or go out and spend. I’m not bothered about looking like a blood transfusion patient with cables out of my arms so fancying the Li battery powered ones. Has anyone any experience/recommendations

    I used to have the EX02.... They do keep your hands warm however it was a faf everytime hooking it on and off. Also I felt you don't get much feel on the controls. The newer models might be different now.

    There is also Gerbings to consider.

    Currently I'm running the RST battery operated ones. At low settings they have lasted decent hours of riding. There is option to carry extra batteries, however I never needed the extras. I tend to turn it on and off as and when needed.

    I'm sure there must be lots more choices with better built qualities ;)

    All the best

    I use Keis heated inner gloves (which attach to my heated body-warmer) but assume that they would run off a battery pack without that). I bought a cheap, sale pair of IXS gloves a size larger than normal to wear them under and they work well.

    That way you can match you're gloves to what you're wearing _20190105_114243.jpg Tucker :joy::joy:

    I’m at a point of same thought for heated gloves. Heated grips still leaves areas of cold

    The RST ones seem to get good reviews and I notice there are some new ones out now. ....at a price obviously

    I gave up on Keis inner gloves because, to be honest, I couldn’t even tell that they were on.

    At NEC this time around though I tried the Keis G501 armoured and heated gloves which worked really well. They were tad expensive (£189) so I didn’t buy, but looks like they may be starting to fall in price.

    If I'm going for a short blast into town then I just use the heated grips with gortex Rev'it Borealis GTX Gloves and it seems to do the job. The good thing about these gloves is that it works with heated grips.
