We added carbon fiber heating elements to a kick-ass technical puffy, and the ‘Ectotherm’ was born.

When you’re sitting around the campfire or lounging in your tent, it’s a super warm insulator with 100g body-mapped synthetic PrimaLoft Gold insulation with Cross Core Technology. Connected to the bike, it adds a 6-panel carbon-fiber 3.5Amps/42w heating system powered by the bike. That extra warmth takes the edge off long, cold, wet, pavement stretches, keeps you warm on high alpine passes, adds new enjoyment to early spring and late fall trips, and ensures you’re ready for anything a multi-year/multi-season RTW journey can dish out.

The Ectotherm is your solution for staying sane and happy when the weather turns brutal. The name comes from Ectothermic, a scientific term for animals that exchange body heat with external sources. Like a lizard basking on a hot rock.

DESIGN

Unlike conventional heated liners the Ectotherm is a fully functional stand-alone synthetic insulation layer. By combining the functionality of a technical puffy and a heated liner we’ve added even more performance and versatility to a layer that we rarely leave home without. Now you can enjoy the comfort of onboard 12V heat without over burdening your pack space. Pair it with heated grips and hand-shields to create the ultimate minimalist heat system for backcountry and RTW travel.

Built with 100g of PrimaLoft Gold Insulation with Cross Core Technology at the core and 60g in the underarms to reduce bulk under armor, the Ectotherm is well equipped for any cold weather trip. This high-tech insulation combines PrimaLoft Gold, with aerogel technology, to provide up to 52% more warmth than the same weight of PrimaLoft Gold Insulation alone. This enables us to achieve both enhanced warmth and decreased weight. Integrated directly into the fibers, aerogel further enhances the performance of synthetic insulation. Now not only will it perform better than down when wet, it will also perform better when compressed under armor.

To further battle the chill of riding in the cold, we added 6 thin, flexible carbon fiber heat panels in the collar, arms, left and right chest and back. Activate the heat with a hem mounted controller to toggle through 3 levels of 3.5amp/42w heat to maximize comfort. The system is powered by your bike’s 12V battery (wiring harness included) for heat that lasts as long as the ride. When it comes to cold weather riding the Ectotherm Insulated 12v Heated Jacket is a powerhouse of comfort when pushing the boundaries of riding season.

Finally got a jacket which worked for me.

A year or so ago, I ordered a store brand jacket through RevZilla, but after two tries I could never get it to work, maybe because I tried to use my existing SAE plug, bottom line . . .

On a recent trip into MX with some real adventure riders, they bother were wearing this MM jacket. Although I didn’t get one right away, I waited until I was half way through my 3K mile winter tour, to finally order one, with express shipping maybe 20% of the jacket cost itself .😖.

The jacket arrived and this time I took the advice of my friends and installed the fused plug directly to the battery and it has worked flawlessly.

Although I ultimately never needed it on that trip, I have worn it several times since and it is certainly made for riding, either alone or under my Aerostich. I also like the one wire coax connector. Some where I read that they use that plug as it is easier to disconnect, like when I forget it is plugged in as i get off. Also I have no hesitation stuffing it in the top of my pannier, no matter how bunch ed up, as again it says it is made for that treatment.

Doskonała.

Doskonały produkt. Kurtka przetestowana i używana podczas 2 tygodniowej wyprawy gdzie temperatury spadały do 0 stopni celsjusza. Pozwalała na konfrotowe podrózowanie w tych temperaturach.
Kupiłem L kę a należało kupić M kę, kurtka jest najefektywniejsza gdy jest bliko ciała.

Perfect ALSO with powerbank

Fit to size. Quick heating. Works perfectly also with my powerbank (XStorm 100w USB-C PD with a USB-C to coax adapter). Warm on the bike, but also warm in the evening/morning by using powerbank.

Quick delivery outside EU.

Saved me on Peruvian mountain passes!

Game changer!! To be able to plug myself in on the 16000 feet passes was a game changer. From cold and stiff to toasty and warm in minutes. I kept my Leatt slim fit body armor u see the jacket but the chest plate above and I found that to be optimal for comfort.
