Heated gear rant..
First, the good part; I recently got a Warm and Safe "Layer Shirt" and it's very, very nice under my winter riding jacket. It still has problems (why is the pocket so small that it BARELY holds the remote control?!), but it's better than the, well, basically entire Gerbing and California Heat... -

Vintage BMW heated vest question?
Hey gang, Does anyone have a 85 vintage BMW heated vest they can tell me about? First, just how warm are they supposed to get? Second, what is the ohm resistance between the two connections for the plug on the vest itself? I picked up a used vest and it just does not seem to work as well as I...- stevenrankin

Heated Gear Cross-Brand Compatibility?
I know some people might have a hard time thinking about heated gear right now (98 deg in Tennessee yesterday), but now might be the time to buy. Are there any issues with compatibility between the major brands (Gerbing, Tourmaster, Firstgear, etc.)? If I found a really sweet deal on Gerbing... -
