What are the benefits of a heated vest?

The heated vest is well known among motorcyclists and those who spend a lot of time outdoors in winter. Generally sleeveless, the heated vest covers the shoulders and chest. However, the heat it produces is distributed throughout the upper body, warming the arms as well. It is increasingly sought after because it offers numerous advantages. It is quite thin and does not hinder the mobility of the wearer.

Moreover, its temperature is most often regulated by its start button, located on the torso. However, it is important to choose the right size. For this, please refer to the size guide present in each product sheet.

How does a heated vest work?

The heated vest works through a system of resistances whose purpose is to heat the vest. Just like with a radiator, once powered, these resistances emit a constant and even heat. To counteract the sensation of cold, they are placed in strategic areas to improve your comfort.

On my-heated-jacket.com, you will find heated vests with different heating zone numbers. However, there are areas above which the resistances are very often placed. These include the back, especially the lower back and kidneys. Moreover, some heating zones are also located around the stomach and sometimes the chest or even the neck and nape. To vary the temperatures of your heated vest, you just need to press the unique snap button it has.

How long can a heated vest keep you warm?

The men’s and women’s heated vests always have three levels of heating: light, medium, and strong. Each of these heating levels corresponds to well-defined temperatures. Thus, you must choose a specific heating level based on the external temperature felt. Moreover, depending on the heating level, your heated vest will keep you warm for more or less time. Indeed, if you would like your heated vest to keep you warm for a long time, it would be preferable for you to set it to the lowest level.

At this level, the battery of your heated vest is capable of warming you for 8h. For the moderate level, you can only count on 4h of heating. However, these 4h are largely sufficient to spend an afternoon outdoors. Besides, if you think that 4h is not enough, there is a very simple solution. You can bring a spare battery to enjoy a total of 8h of normal operation.

• ❤️ Design and Fit: Heated vests for women are often designed with a more tailored silhouette, respecting the lines of the female body, while vests for men tend to have a straighter and wider cut, often to accommodate a broader frame.
