Product Description The Lectra Gloves & Mittens are waterproof, durable everyday gloves with the added benefit of having battery heat when it gets extra cold. The new design gloves have snow cuffs to seal in the warmth while keeping the cold out. On those extra cold days or to take the chill off, just turn on the heat by inserting in a "D? size alkaline battery(NotIncluded)which will last 4-6 hours if used continuously, longer if used intermittently. These products are not designed to get extremely hot! They are designed to keep the hand warm thus making it more comfortable to be out in cold weather. The heating unit in the palm area is completely safe and warms the entire hand and fingers. IMPORTANT: Place you hands on a flat surface and measure the circumferance of you knuckles excluding the thumb. Then use the product table toorder the correct size.

  Very little heat April 15, 2007 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I bought both the Nordic Gear batter-heated gloves and battery-heated mittens. Neither product provides adequate heat. The batteries work; but you get only a tiny bit of warmth. I see from the other reviews that my complaint is common. I wish I had read the reviews before buying!

Glove is made of good material. It does not get hot enough. One gloves gets warmer than the other. I'm not even sure if the righthand glove works. But overall its not bad. If I could, I would invest in something else.
  Battery powered gloves; little heat for a lot of money January 1, 2007 21 out of 21 found this review helpful
I bought these gloves for my wife who has problems keeping her hands warm. The description of the gloves would have you believe that the battery powered gloves (using D cell Batteries) would provide heat to the hands for 6 to 8 hours. In actuality, the battery will only provide heat for 35 to 40 minutes before it ends. To make matters worse, the only heat provided is to the palm of the hand, no heat is provided to the fingers!
I did not use a cheap brand of battery for these gloves. The first battery that I tried (it takes one D cell per glove) was Duracel with an experation date of 2013 (in other words, brand new battery with lots of shelf life left). That battery provided heat for 40 minutes before dying.
The second set of batteries that I tried (with the same experation date) were made by Eveready. That battery lasted 35 minutes. You should also note that the Duracel fits poorly in the connector case and the Eveready battery fits even worse!
These gloves are on their way to Goodwill. Maybe they can be used by some one as work gloves or something.
If you are considering these gloves, think again! The chemical packs work much better although they (the chemical packs) do have a shelf life. It just seemed such a waste to us to use a chemical pack for a one hour walk and then have the pack continue to provide heat for another 4 to 6 hours. Still, that is better than using up two D cell batteries for less heat that only lasts about 40 minutes.
