I saw some going cheap recently, I think it was by the bargain counter in Westcliff Maplins, duff box or somethign so were cheap, they also had the heated wastecoat.

Both run on AA batteries, not 12v.

Don't bother with these, they are heated gloves alright but are pooorly made, and will rip the first time you bend your hand round your throttle or clutch. They are designed for walking, ive tried them ;)

if you decide to go with heated gloves they are about £120 from gerbing dealers, bloody good though!

Halfords Colchester had some clearance heated grips recently. Think they still have plenty.

I bought "Thermal" and "waterproof" FT gloves last winter. Leaked like feck and were freezing. Worst £58 I ever did spend. Saw me coming the gits did.

Have you got a pait of these ? I rang around yesterday and found out that hardly any of the bike shops would sell them because of the wires that run up the fingers kept braking and everyone took them back. Apart from harpers. They wanted £ 129.00 for gerbings.
