Heated Gloves

Gotta get myself a pair of these http://www.maplin.co.uk/module.aspx?moduleno=47714

I was thinking about getting them a while ago but what put me off is that a set of AAA batteries only last 45 mins in them.

3 AAA's in each glove. That's expensive.

Yeh but only turn em on when the cold gets in. You wouldn't want em on the whole time would ya

Depends on how far you're going though dunnit. 150 miles you'd need them on a lot. If you switched them off after 5 mins to save the battery, the cold would creep in quickly. Better to wire them up to your elestart battery. Be warm all the time then.

  i dont think i fancy wireing myself up to my battery 

Had enough shock treatment in the past

Now I think about it, 3 AAA batteries equals 4.5volts. Stick the 12volt supply from a PX on it and your hands will either cook or go up in flames lol. Will keep them warmer though!
