    What do you guys think of this heated apparel?

    Hi guys.

    We just launched our Kickstarter. What do you think about this kind of heated apparel for outdoorsy use?

    https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...?ref=discovery

    All feedback is much appreciated.

    in my opinion , this is as bad as the cell phone seller , joins forums across the world that have "hunting" in title , to see if they can get their kickstarter project going , ...

    Guess it's a good way to get the word out though.

    I wouldn't use the gear. NZ isn't really cold enough and even boarding in -40c in Japan with decent merino base layers I was never cold.

    Going to be an extremely small niche market.

    Exacly, do your market research.

    for the weight of the vest and spare batteries you could carry a hell of a puffer jacket

    Solution looking for a problem. Tank crews in the Russian winter have this tech, but not necessary for 99% of cases.

    Slap a huge price on it and market it to the rich tourists who show up to view the northern lights unprepared, and to the hotels that accommodate them.

    Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

    Looks about as useful as racing stripes on a telephone to be honest.

    Isn't that how you get faster communication.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    They sure do.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Going through a gorse patch wearing this would be like running into an electric barbed wire fence...
