Frequently Asked questions
  1. Q: What happens if I get wet?
    A: Nothing. All of our wiring is plastic coated and there would be no shock from getting wet.

  2. Q: Can I use one temperature controller to power two people?
    A: No, each person must have his or her own power cord and temperature controller. The power cord would be overloaded with two outfits.

  3. Q: Can I use the dual temperature controller for two people?
    A: No. The same power cord is used and would be overloaded.

  4. Q: Which plug on the jacket is for power in?
    A: The plug closest to the main zipper is the power in. The next plug (middle plug) on DUAL 2 wired jackets is the power in for gloves. The plug farthest away from the main zipper (female) is the accessory plug for connecting to your pants.

  5. Q: How much power will I draw off the battery?
    A: That depends on which garment you are using. Refer to the standard form for reference.

  6. Q: Can my electrical system handle the draw?
    A: Check the watts for each item of clothing that you will wear and compute the total watts of all items. Refer to your owner's manual and/or dealer to look up the available wattage of your electrical system.

  7. Q: Is my heated clothing waterproof?
    A: Gerbing's outerwear products and gloves are constructed to conform to the industry standards of waterproofing and will keep you dry. Gerbing's outerwear is constructed with a waterproof outer layer, or face fabric. The main function of the face fabric is to provide a durable outer shell. To make the face fabric waterproof, the inside of the fabric is laminated with a urethane coating that provides a protective moisture membrane. In addition, all seams are tape sealed and our outerwear fabrics have a durable water-repellent coating (DWR) which is a chemical treatment that forces water to bead up and roll off the surface of the fabric. Gerbing's gloves (excluding glove liners) are all constructed with a waterproof/breathable membrane to keep your hands dry however the leather is not waterproof and should be treated.

  8. Q: Can I wear my liner as an outer jacket?
    A: Not when you are riding. The fabric and stitching are not made to withstand excessive wind, but are instead meant to be worn under a wind-resistant jacket. You may wear them as an outer jacket when walking around.

  9. Q: Can I wash my Gerbing's jacket liners, pants, or socks?
    A: Yes, hand wash in Woolite® and hang to dry.

  10. Q: How tightly can I package, roll, or twist my garments?
    A: You may pack, twist, or roll your liner as small as the Stuff Sacks available through Gerbing's Heated Clothing.
