Second test of battery life- Rode with them for a day over the weekend, and on the 2nd highest warmth setting, we got right about 3.5 hours to total battery drain.
First test of the battery life- Ran them on highest heat setting with a full charge, and they both lasted almost exactly 2.5 hours. Next, we’ll test them on the lower heat levels, see what we get.
It seems that once you put them on, you have to let the heat on all the time, even when no need for heating. So, instead of turning them off, put them on the blue setting, otherwise, if the heat is turned off, after 30 minutes the battery turns off, and you need to access it inside the glove and turn it back on.
I bought these gloves last spring and forgot I had them. A trip recently to my dealer (1 1/2) hr ride was brutal. Swapped out bikes. The one I picked up had heated grips, much better. Felt silly when I got home to find the gloves in front of me. I'm sure they were laughing at me.!!!
@@johnlenart597 I just recharged the ones in this video, used them for the first time this year on a day ride earlier this week. Ambient temps were mid-40s, so much colder at speed. They still work great, hold a good charge, and my hands didn’t get cold. Still highly recommend them! Paired with a Meltivo battery heated jacket, I was comfy and toasty all day in the saddle. www.meltivo.com Promo code: RD20 (for the Meltivo jacket)
Las pilas son una mamada, el manual dice que se tardan en cargan de 4 a 5 horas que de por si ya es mucho, pero tardan como 10 horas y no cargan parejo al mismo tiempo. El calor al 100% es muy light. Por lo que cuestan, deberían ser perfectos.
Do your research bette, dude. Macna (anither Dutch brand, allegedly an offshoot of Revit), had heated gloves with all those features already 8 years ago when I bought my Atom, which still work.
But Macna doesn't offer the same protection as these from Rev'it. The same price range comes with less rigid knuckle protectors and usually no palm slide protection
Thanks’ for a great review. I’m concidering these gloves, but i’m wondering if 33*C is warm enough? I have been used to heated grips up to 50*C, and this was good at above freezing temp. So would 33*C be enough heat and then only few hours on highest setting? I hope you can clarify this to me :)
We’re down in north central Georgia, so we didn’t get many really cold days this winter. The coldest I rode with the gloves was 44* F, which at speed feels like about 20* F. My hands did not get cold. But yeah, on the highest setting, you’ve got a few hours of charge.
Im not a fan of these gloves. I rode with them for a few days in europe. When it is -2 / -6 degrees celcius i can drive a maximum of 20 minutes beefore having to stop... I suppose the battery doesnt output enough warmth for these temperatures.
If you ride with an added layer under the gloves, like you would with a regular pair of non-electrics, we would think they’d be better. Of course, to your point about the batteries, when these are run on the highest/hottest settings, battery life is burned through pretty fast, and you’re back to freezing the fingers again. Good observations, Lars. Thank you.
@@roaddirttv thanks. my doubt is that some batteries don't recharge if they are under load (I mean if you are using the gloves with heat on). please, could you do this test?
Normally you can’t charge a powerbank while draining it. Revit make this as a powerbank, in a 2xserial battery connection. It uses different electrical circuits for input and output, and can’t be active at the same time. Remember while you are charging from USB, onto 2 individual lithium cells of 3,7 volt each in the battery hardcase pack, due to USB 5 volt outlet, then you can’t drain then at the same time. 3,7+3,7 cells gives you the 7,4 volt total, a serial connection battery pack for each glove, to run your heated gloves electrical circuit.
Thanks a lot for this nice and informative test video. It`s worth it.........Regards from cold Germany. Also a very nice and warm merry Christmas and a happy new year

Just picked up a set of these gloves - Great fit, great adjustability of the warmth.
We’re still using them a year later. Fantastic gloves!

What you got? :D
Finally. An honest review. I’m sold.

That’s true. Good observation.

Thanks for your review
I am getting one
Going into my 2nd winter with them. Still outstanding.

Hello in terms of fitting they are tight or the sizes is true to size?!
Seems to run pretty true to size.
Thanks’ for a great review.

do they keep the tops of your fingertips warm.
Mainly along the knuckles and finger joints, not at the tips.

Battery life is fine. Its just not warm enough for me. I will try out your advice@@roaddirttv
Song ?
@@jellevanderkloos5659 intro music? Unsure, we purchased it years ago.
Hi, is it possible to recharge the batteries while riding by a power bank or by wiring through the bike? thanks for your reply
Charging requires a mini USB charger, so it’s possible,
@@roaddirttv thanks. my doubt is that some batteries don't recharge if they are under load (I mean if you are using the gloves with heat on).
please, could you do this test?
@@the_nomad_adv We’ll have to ask out REV’IT! contacts, see if they think it might damage the batteries.
