Men's Heated-Neck Long Sleeve Heat Layer This version of the Heat Layer has 7 areas of heat. Heat covering the chest and lower front, heated arms, heated collar, heat in the upper back and the lower back. It also has connections at the end of the sleeves for gloves or glove liners.
Our Men's 12V Heat Layer Shirt numbers:
3.5 Amps
4.0 Ohms
48 Watts at 13.8V (However! Due to a guy in Finland that was saying we were lying about the Watts on our clothing I need to add the following. As you know, we design all our products. To get the coverage where it needs to be and to make sure the heat is the same per space of the covered area, the panels have to be different sizes and different resistance which when one does the math will show the smaller sizes as having less overall Watts. But what I tried to explain is that to fit the panels in the smaller sizes one has to make the panels smaller and if you then tried to run the same resistance in the smaller space it would cause the heat elements to be too close or it would get too hot and potentially in both cases, cause a hot spot. But as I showed him, the heat in the element per meter is the same and that allows the heat in the smaller space to be the same range as the larger panels. So, take the 48Watts as a reference number based on the math of the resistance of the larger panels and Voltage of 13.8V and it really is kind of meaningless. What has meaning is the heat per meter which in both panels is pretty identical. But he could not understand that. Of course, this all came about because he felt it was not heating up enough. I tried to point out that it is a base layer and having a wool shirt under it may be the issue and then having nothing over it but a leather jacket also does not help because leather transfer cold. I suggested he put the wool shirt over the Heat Layer but he was fixated on the Watts and that was that.)
Heat where you need it. Our panels are configured right where you want the heat to be for optimal heat transfer. Through rigorous testing, we have developed two different panel placement patterns based on the two different male and female designs. It shouldn't be surprising that due to differences in shape and bodies, the optimal panel placements are different for men and women.
More control over the heat. How much warmth you need is dependent on multiple factors such as outside temperature and what layers you are wearing below or on top of the garment. Coupled with the Remote Heat-trollers, you have a true off and a true full on with 0~100% heat control via a dial.
Only the best goes in to the Heat Layer. High tech, wicking, stretch fabric construction with different cuts from men and women・YKK zippers ・Alloy/Silicon "softheat" heating element ・Connectors and wires rated to -40℃/-40℉ (for durability and longevity)
High Tech, moisture wicking stretch fabric There is simply no better fabric out there for this type of garment. Like a fitted shirt, the stretch fabric keeps the garment, and most importantly the heat panel, flat against your body for the optimal heat transfer. This high level of heat transfer performance means less power/heat is needed to achieve that ideal warmth. Besides the fit, the fabric is designed for both comfort and to wick away any sweat or moisture. Users often note that besides feeling the heat, the garment fits so well you don't notice it's there.
WARRANTY
We build for longevity and durability. We have previous versions of our garments still full functional and in use after 20 years. We will repair or replace any problems with products within the first year.
