Conforteck is one of the leaders in 12V plug-in heating equipment for motorsports enthusiasts. Established in Drummondville, its network of retailers throughout the province of Quebec is widespread and accessibility to all their products is available among these merchants, but also through online sales on www.conforteck.com/boutique/en.
During the next few winter months, our Passion Motoneige team will have the privilege of testing some of Conforteck’s new products on our many trail rides. Usually, we hope for mild temperatures to practice our activity, but in this case, we hope for weather and cold temperatures that will be able to put our equipment to the test. Our assessment will be published in the next issue, but for now, we share with you the list, the characteristics and the heating equipment that have been made available to us and that will accompany us during our next hikes.
Ensemble Semelles et batterie lithium
We opted for this set because some of the vehicles we are lucky enough to ride do not have a 12V accessory connection. The second reason is that the connection by an independent lithium source also allows sovereignty and freedom for the practice of a winter sport activity.
These flexible insoles are only 1 millimeter thick, ultra-resistant and easy to use. They can be cut to the desired size for a perfect fit.
An included charger supplies the rechargeable 5200 mAh 12-volt DC lithium-ion battery with 4 levels of intensity and recharges in less than 6 hours for up to 30 hours of use. This ultra-lightweight lithium-ion battery weighs only 320g and has a convenient remaining capacity indicator.
Its installation is facilitated by a wire in ”Y” for a simplified connection. Just connect the whole thing, slip the lithium battery in a pocket of his pants and it’s done.
Heated underpants
In addition to looking good, these jeans-style underpants offer warmth in strategic areas. Made of microfiber and laminated with Wind Hinder membrane, the underpants provide effective protection against wind and moisture while allowing your body to breathe. It consumes only 1.6 amps and promises to provide a pleasant warmth distributed at the hips, as well as from the top of the thighs, to the bottom of the legs, through the knees.
Conforteck recommends wearing the underpants with underwear to avoid direct skin contact. This accessory can be connected to any compatible 12V source from a single Nano or Mini power controller, or multiple output controllers such as the DUO and X-TREME. In our case, we will use it with a Conforteck Lithium-ion set with integrated controller.
Available sizes range from XS to XXXL. Our female team member will be the one to test the virtues of these underpants. In our humble opinion, this fashionable and practical accessory is sure to provoke some lust.
EnsembleDoublures et batterie lithium
To face our cold winter weather, almost all snowmobiles are equipped with heated handles and thumbs. However, from time to time, we have to perform certain related tasks that require a dexterity that cannot be performed with our gloves or mittens commonly used during the practice of our sport. Whether it is to make suspension adjustments, change a belt or to attach our snowmobile to our trailer, these movements usually done with bare hands leave us unprotected against the cold.
These thin heated liners are comfortable and allow you to perform any function efficiently. They are available in 3 sizes and their elasticity fits perfectly. Its carbon elements provide warmth right to the fingertips.
This kit includes everything needed to ensure up to 20 hours of autonomy: a rechargeable lithium-ion battery 12 Volts DC of 5200mAh adjustable to 4 levels of intensity with indicator of remaining capacity, a charger allowing a complete recharge in less than 6 hours, a ”Y” wire and a double plug. This set allows for autonomy and constant heat, regardless of the activity recommended.
In conclusion, we will have no excuse this winter not to practice our motorized activities. Conforteck offers everything necessary to counter the whims of Mother Nature.
