LOL, Naa these things a huge, they would only fit in the pockets of my Mega Parka and it's not cold enough to wear that Bad Boy, :Y:
Here's what they say about them,
The Outdoor Research Lucent mitts are waterproof, Gore-tex lined Heated gloves for cold environments. The Lucent gloves have a removable and rechargeable battery unit which supplies power to heating elements that keep your hands warm for up to eight hours.
The Lucent heated mitts come with the high end quality you expect from Outdoor Research and incorporate the new Gore-Tex + Gore Warm Technology. This means the Lucent are both breathable, waterproof and warm mitts in their own right and can be used in cold weather without the batteries for the Altiheat heating system.
Of course the big attraction of the Lucent mitt is the heating itself. All you really need to know is works. Even if your hands and the gloves are cold, you put them on high power for a few minutes and you are nice and toasty. Once youve warmed up a bit you can drop the setting down for longer battery life or turn them off completely while exercising hard. If you are going out for a very long day or in very cold conditions you can take a spare set of batteries which are easy to swap over in the field.
Here is what Outdoor Research say about the Lucent Heated Gloves.

They are a great little machine. I like switching to the monster for a swing to ping some little ones. It's a different type of detecting, hit the diggings in your Doug stone books and you should be in with a good chance to get some. Just got to put in the time and cover the ground. Monster will sniff out the tiniest of bits :Y:

We bought one of these the other day to keep our water and smoko cold for the day. :Y:
I'd go and test it to see how long it will keep beers cold but I reckon that the ice would last longer than the beer. I buy things to use, not test. If I wanted to test an item I'd be part of the Choice Awards team. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Nice Doug, I have a 35 /40 litre unit, very effective.
Ticked the box at the bank today for this:
Been hunting for a while and 8" units are scarce. Guy near Innesfail makes them, solid built on a 6mm ally base. Sold as a 4 wheeler but plenty of room for another 2, just add the drip taps.
