Heated by 6 AA bateries, may or may not be suitable for diving, but for £20 it will keep me warm during a SI at Stoney on a frosty winter morning.
Any opinions on:
Suitability for diving
Battery type to use |
I wouldn't use it underwater...this from the FAQ:
Q) and how long does it keep warm for on one set of batteries? - jon
A) OK - this should be used in the following way; turn on the power for a few minutes to warm up the jacket - turn off. It is not deisgned to be powered up constantly and if used in this way the batteries will last no more than 40 to 50 minutes
