Gerbing Heated Liner Question

After 20-something years of use, my Aerostitch Kanetsu heated liner has given up the ghost. I like the Gerbing liner.
I'd like to just use the foolproof on-off switch from my Aerostitch to control the Gerbing. What sort of connector would I need to use to go from the SAE plug to whatever it is that Gerbing uses?
Thanks.
John
 
Thanks!
The switch I have been using is SAE at both ends. The adapter suggested looks like it would work.
I am thinking that since the switch and the heating elements are not polarity sensitive, I just need to plug and play with these items. Or?
 
Just discovered the Warm&Safe heated gear. They produce a heated base layer, which makes a whole lot of sense to me as it puts the heat right up against the first layer t-shirt or merino layer by your skin. Then you use your regular jacket liner and jacket over that. Plus, Warm&Safe give you a discount if you show them you have destroyed you old electric liner (or mailed it to them). Seemed like good technology and a good deal.

You really can’t go wrong with Warm & Safe gear—it’s quality gear and a great company to deal with. Their controllers, both wired and wireless, have been very reliable for me as well—I like to be able to dial in a heat level and not have to fiddle with switching heat on and off.

Best,
DeVern

Last year Debbie and I bought Warm & Safe generation Waterproof jacket liners and are very happy with them.

They also work good to wear at night off the bike.

I did not want the heated shirt because I thought it would be a hassle to change shirts during the day if it warmed up.
I also did not want to deal with washing it on a trip if I had been sweating in it.
