[QUOTE="ngarider, post: 342296, member: 5766"] Drive-by. Cute. So, a buddy of mine sent them back to motorcycle superstore after the first ride. The wiring is a nightmare, the connectors seem like radio-shack specials. He and I are not short, stubby fingered people... and the thumbs were too short for the size (the other fingers except index and thumb were actually ok). Seams digging into the ends of your fingers BLOWS. And the small matter of really sketchy heat. It would be on, low, and ok. Then off, though the controller showed on. The highest setting, when turned on, was a skin graft at the burn center kind of experience. I mean, hot when not moving, ok, but this... too much. And medium was no different than low. And compared with his big winter gloves (the bmw winter gloves, whatever they're called) and my revit's, they just aren't all that protective-feeling either. Granted, they do put out some heat, but the gerbings are SO much better, why fool with these when the interconnects are such a PITA (aside from QC issues, I think) We're both trying out winter gear right now, and he decided on the full bmw koolaid setup, i think that's gerbing. Of course, he's got 500w to spare, lucky bastard. I'm now waiting on my warm'n'safe jacket liner and handgrip warmers with heat troller (to be used in conj with the Vstrom handguards i just put on -- love those all the way down to about 10C.)
