Great Choice
Much better than hooking up to the battery. Works great!

Expensive
The batteries recharge fairly quickly using the supplied charger. Getting only about 1.5 hours of use per charge. For what they cost I would expect better performance.

Great product
I used my hybred gloves/battery while shoveling snow this past weekend and my hands stayed nice and warm and comfortable. Little expensive, but well worth them.

3 level power setting works great
I rode with my hybrid harley gloves on a 3 degree day. It was really nice to not have to thread the wiring harness through my jacket to stay warm, ( I don't have a jacket liner as of yet)
Battery lasted on high for about 2 hours.

This product is exactly as stated and works as stated.
The batteries are plenty big, but they have to be in order for them to provide battery power to heat the gloves. Size of battery is better than cold hands.

Surely keep your hands toasted!!!
I have used this glove over winter 2011. The first time I used them without the heat controller hooked up directly to bike battery at first was ok when engine not running so next morning I went riding with 45-50F outside and my hand got toasted (not toasty). Yes, I got burnt!!! So I bought the controller and they work great. I also ordered a battery packs to use it so I don't have wires hanging around and they work just find round trip of my commute to and from work about 2 hours setting at medium heat before the batteries depleted. I used the gloves in heavy rain and it's kept your hand dry but I found that if your suit long sleeve will not go over the glove then the water sometime leaked into the glove from the back. Over all I would recommended these gloves but they are expensive. I spend about $350 altogether!

Not ready for prime time
Works for no longer than two hours at full heat- havent tested at medium, but at low, negligible benefit over the gloves without batteries . The gloves are great, but if you are going to tour any distance, better to use the old system of wiring up your jacket and plugging into the bike. Definitely not worth the very high price for this option or paying extra for the option on the already pricy gloves ( which I do like and will wire my bike to heat.. And BTW: tested this with rather mild winter weather of high 30's and mid 40 degrees F.

works for me
these seem to keep a charge well. we commute an hour each way and keep them set on "high". then charge them overnight. longer than that though you better hook up to your m/c battery.
during the summer i recharge them every month or so to keep them topped up. have had a set for over a year now and battery life seems good as new.
they are about an inch too long and a quarter inch too fat to fit in the hybrid gloves well.
