6*AA batteries? Can't imagine that providing much heat... Probably most of the heat comes from within the waistcoat

I'd have thought the heated gloves would be of more use in a seven.

6 x AA = 9volts. Dead easy to fix up a 9volt suppply from the car. Hence keep the batteries for use away from the car.

Could you run them at 12v and get even warmer, I hate being cold. Socks would be my best investment, when my feet are cold everywhere feels it.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Although it say in the FAQ that it's not designed to be run constantly... you're supposed to turn it on, allow it to heat up and then turn it off. Begs the question what it's for really.
