Power source
12v Power
Our 12v products are designed to be powered by a 12VDC electrical system by
a simple connection to the vehicle’s battery or through a 12-volt accessory
outlet. A motorcycle, snowmobile, ATV, boat, automobile, golf cart or even
an airplane can be used to power our 12v heated products.
NOTE: WHEN POWERING YOUR HEATED CLOTHING THROUGH THE 12-VOLT ELECTRICAL
SYSTEM OF A VEHICLE YOU SHOULD BE SURE THAT YOUR VEHICLE’S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WOULD HANDLE THE ELECTRICAL DRAW. Click hereTO LEARN HOW TO
DETERMINE IF YOUR VEHICLE HAS THE ELECTRICAL OUTPUT TO POWER OUR CLOTHING.
7v Power
Our 7v products are designed to be powered by rechargeable
lithium battery packs. These products are not designed to be powered by a
12-volt electrical system and allow you the freedom to stay warm almost
anywhere.
12v Hybrid Power
Gerbing’s products that utilize the Hybrid Heating System allow you the
option of obtaining your power through a rechargeable 12-volt battery pack
or through a 12-volt electrical system.

The CORE HEAT TRANSFER SYSTEM™ product line uses a combination of our
patented Microwire™ or Nanowire™ heating technologies in conjunction with
high powered, but small and lightweight microprocessor-managed 7v Lithium
battery packs that are rechargeable for over 500 cycles. Gerbing's Core Heat
series of heated products are designed to prevent the body's physiological
response of vasoconstriction that occurs when colder temperatures are
detected and the nervous system restricts blood flow to the extremities. The
Core Heat Transfer System allows you to maintain blood flow and a constant
level of thermal comfort preventing vasoconstriction.
Interconnected System
All of our 12v heated clothing
products form a true
interconnected system in which
every item connects to everything
else. You can wear a jacket, gloves,
pants, and socks with only a single
connection to your battery. For
example, our gloves and socks plug
into our three-prong connecting
harness or directly into our pants
or jacket.

Gerbing's Heated Clothing
products include a variety of
high density heating
technologies engineered to
create a specific amount of heat.
These different technologies are
then strategically located to
produce a natural and balanced
heat output, surrounding the
body with warmth.
The heating technologies we use
vary depending on the product,
how it is going to be used, the
heat output and the power level
requirements. Our years of
experience have allowed us to
develop and patent the most
efficient and durable heating
technologies that provide the
greatest heat transfer. Our goal is
to provide you with a product
that incorporates the most
unobtrusive but effective
heating technology that will last
a lifetime.


Our classic heating system which has
been refined throughout the years that utilizes insulated resistant copper
heating wire that is sewn into fabric heating panels and then placed into
the garment. Engineered for use in higher wattage drawing products that are
to be powered by the 12v electrical system of a vehicle. GHC High Density
heat products provide the most heat output and coverage but also require
more power.


Incorporates our patented process of using
micro-sized stainless steel fibers that are intertwined and encased in a
Teflon coating. The Microwire™ is then woven into a heating matrix that is
then placed in the garment. This system is the most durable and efficient
heating technology ever developed. Microwire™ heating technology is used
both in 7v and 12v products.


Utilizes our patented process of using silvered
fibers that are then stitched into a non-woven fabric where it is then
waterproof sealed. Very customizable heating technology that allows us to
engineer very specific heat output to specifically targeted areas. Used in
both 7v and 12v applications.


Uses safe, low-power
infrared rays to transmit heat throughout the carbon fiber heating elements
that are sealed in panels and then placed into the product. Economical
heating technology that is designed to provide high heat in smaller
concentrated areas. Carbon fiber heating technology is used for lower
drawing battery operated products only.
