Heated Jackets

[Red Bullets]

Hey AO icefishers...

Am I behind the times or do any of you have one of these Dewalt heated hoodies or jackets?

I didn't know they existed until I got a flyer from Candian Tire today.
I think I want one for icefishing.

I have the Dewalt Hoodie, picked it up at our company xmas party charity auction, I love it

I sell the Milwaukee heated hoodies and jackets at my shop.
Our contractors love them and we have yet to have a complaint.
They use the same battery from the tools like Dewalt does & they have recently come out with a car charger which will charge your coat and run the coat at the same time.
Food for thought.

I also sell and own the milwaukee stuff.

I love my heated jacket and will be getting a hoodie as well.

Tons of people in the store daily asking and picking up the heated gear with no complaints as of yet.

Thanks for the responses. Where is your shop Electric Fisher? I may be wanting one soon.

[ELECTRIC FISHER]

We have them on at all the Gescan branches for:

Men's Jacket $199.95

All of them come with the battery and chargers.

The dewalt ones may be fancier and have a new age look but the cost ends up being way more than a millwakee. Dewalt doesn't come with the 20v battery that is needed and they recommend the best battery they have. They are not cheap either. Millwakee comes all ready to go. None of them will last a full 8 hours but the idea is to recharge it at lunch. The car charger is a definite bonus. Also the more heat zones the less the battery will last. Some of the dewalts come with 3 or 5 zones.
I want one so I've been doing my research.
Pretty sure it will be the millwakee.
Snowboard companies make them too. The cost is way higher but they are better than any of them.
