Vertex Heated Ski & Snowboard Gloves - 6 Hours Battery Life | 3 Adjustable Heat Settings | Rechargeable Battery & Charger Included | Full Finger Heating | Perfect for Winter Sports & Outdoor Activities

Okay. I ordered two pair of Hestra heated gloves in different sizes, and one of the Gobi Vertex heated glove for skiing.I gave them all full charges, and then put them on the highest heat setting and noted the time, and walked away for a while. The Hestra gloves both died at 2 hours (as advertised, one should note). The Gobi Vertex lasted for 5 hours (one hour longer than advertised). I did not test them again at medium or low settings, because I would never use them at that point.The Hestra gloves (from Amazon) $175 per pair the Gobi $219 a pair. Backup batteries for Hestra not available. Back ups for Gobi $60 per pair with charger.For $275 I can ski all day in any weather and my hands will always be hot; not "warm".BTW Hestra gloves from the Hestra web site are $425.
