Not much to say…exhausted from work today, but just thought I’d post up and say it’s a very nice jacket. Material feels nice, heats up quickly, looks pretty good for a work jacket. Also ordered a 2.0aH battery but didn’t get that yet.
I haven’t seen them anywhere for sale yet. I haven’t really looked too hard either.
Amazon had them as a presale item about a month ago.
Yeah, got mine from Amazon.
That’s awesome. How do you like the jacket? Have you seen the Milwaukee, if so how does it compare?
Haha Cant wait to see the tool fight between Milwaukee Bosch and DeWalt, I would love to have one but cant justify buying one where it wont get under 50 here….
It’s really nice, Eric. Feels nice, fits great. I’m an XL and it’s true to size. Plenty of room for a thermal shirt/t-shirt combo underneath. I haven’t put eyes on the Milwaukee, so can’t really compare the two.
Cool. Would like to check one out.
Chase is lucky to live in an area that never gets below freezing! I was hoping to win that 400 million powerball jackpot so I could build a bad ass workshop and can leave Michigan when the weather gets cold. January through Mach is brutal. We don’t get the snow like Dan and Eric but its the cold and getting dark at 4:00 that gets me.

Dark at 4:00! That’s awful. In the winter we still have light until at least 6-6:30
I should say the sun is setting by 4 and its dark by 5. Its pretty crappy you get up its dark you come home from work its dark. I love a Michigan summer but I don’t think the winters make up for it. I’m not really into any of the winter sports like snowmobiling or sking.
I used to love to ski. Haven’t been in years though.
Haha I wish I could win the powerball and move to the north from may to october, it is way to hot…..but perfect in the winter!

Last December I flew to Jacksonville. Took of in WV it was 34 and snowing. When I landed it was 70 and sunny. I had a coat on, lol
That’s one small positive to the cold you can always keep on adding clothes. When it’s extremely hot you can only remove so many clothes before you end up in jail.
I’ve always said the exact same thing
Good one !
This jacket is really nice. It’s currently 25°F here and I just spent about 45 minutes outside and didn’t get cold a bit. And that was without the battery/heat going and only a t-shirt on underneath. Which is great, but that means unless I’m out all day in those kind of temperatures, I’ll probably never need the heating portion lol. The jacket is that warm. Of course dressing properly over the rest of your body helps, but I’m pretty impressed with the jacket.
I left West Virginia Sunday while it was 18 degrees with 5″ of snow. Got to Jacksonville it was 81. Unreal
It’s freaking freezing here it’s dipping in the single digits her in SE Michigan. Dan and Eric should be having this stuff not us :/
It is 3 here. We had 9 inches of snow and about a 1/4 inch of sleet under that. We haven’t had school since last Friday here.
