Just bought a heated vest for the winter commutes

It the Keis x10 which is down to 95 quid on ebay.


Current Draw 1.5A. Typical Power 18W

Will my canbus system cut this much power?
 
You should be fine, but if you power the socked from the battery via relay you can use the aux power outlet to trip the relay. Then it goes on and off with CanBus and you can drive much higher loads.
 
Ive got the BMW standard powerlet. TBH it's not been good. Plugs rattled loose and now it's corroded up. Winter is coming so I might get the Neutrik Speakon connectors fitted.

I have used them before on big concert speaker equipment. They can take alot of abuse..


Just plugged the new waistcoat on for the first time.

My goodness. Why have I waited so long. toasty.......

Funny story. There are lots of bikers at my work place.
They all think im a big sissy for using one . Having a good old laugh...


Lets see how they get on in the coming months..
 
I used a Keiss jacket for a sub zero ride from South Devon to Essex and back in a day. It would have been simply not possible without the heated jacket. At times it was going pretty much flat out.
