So I’ve been a heated gear convert for years, and have had Gerbing, then Warm and Safe and now a full set of Gerbing socks, trousers and jacket and hooked them up to my glove liners. I use a Warm and Safe dual controller with the remote mounted on the left side of the bars, with the yellow circuit trousers and socks, and red jacket and glove liners.
The kit has been powered from the battery, via a panel mount on the left side of the bike and then a curly cable.
I took the plunge and ordered a set of KEIS textile gloves and an adapter to Gerbing as the latest versions are of course not compatible.
KEIS now have an LED button controller on the back of each glove (waste of time and really bright at night), and this means they cannot be powered by a controller, they need a direct cable.
I’ve not used the setup on the bike as a whole until today.
The gloves come on and then flash and go off, this is only when the other two zones are on (the gloves take a Y feed from the panel mount, but don’t go via a controller.
When there is a decent draw, the gloves shut off. I can replicate this off the bike as have a 12v power supply, and as soon as the power demand goes up, (when trouser and jacket are on) the gloves must sense the drop in power and cut out.
I’ll be on to KEIS on Monday, but wondered if anyone else has Gloves with power controller on the back and other items, and does it all work together.
