Gants chauffants moto à batterie questions
How are KEIS heated gloves powered?
You can power the G901 EXTREME Heated Gloves in two ways. 1. Direct to your motorcycle: use the included vehicle supply lead to connect directly to your bike's 12V battery for continuous heat while riding. This is the best option for longer journeys and all-day use, provided you have a compatible motorbike (see the notes on the vehicle supply lead). 2. Portable KEIS battery packs: insert either 7.4V or 12V lithium-ion batteries into the built-in cuff pockets. 12V batteries are great for short rides, commuting, or switching between bikes when you need to heat the gloves up fast. 7.4V batteries are great for longer rides, touring, commutes or long use off the bike, as they lower the power output but increase use time. Both options support three-stage heat control via the glove's built-in button.
The G601 gloves feature dual power capability. You can plug them into your motorcycle's 12V battery using the supplied lead or power them via optional KEIS Li-ion portable batteries, which fit into the glove cuff pockets for use both on and off the bike.
The G701 gloves are dual powered, meaning they can be connected directly to your motorcycle’s 12V battery or used with optional portable KEIS Li-ion batteries that fit neatly into the glove cuffs. This gives you the flexibility to use them both on and off the bike, whether you're on a long tour or a short walk.
How do I control the heat on KEIS heated gloves?
Each glove features a built-in soft-touch button located just under the cuff. Hold the button for a few seconds to turn the gloves on or off. Once powered on, a single tap cycles through three distinct heat levels: High (red), Medium (amber) and Low (green). The LED colour makes it easy to check your setting at a glance. For best results, adjust the cuff slightly to expose the button, especially when wearing under a jacket sleeve.
There's an integrated heat controller located on the back of the wrist, allowing easy switching between the glove's three heat levels, even while riding, without removing the gloves or stopping.
Each glove includes a wrist mounted three heat level button, allowing independent heat adjustment per hand while riding. Power is supplied via your motorcycle's 12V system, but optional KEIS 12V glove batteries that fit the cuff pockets let you use them off the bike too.
How do KEIS heated gloves heat up?
The gloves use micro carbon fibre heating elements that generate far infrared warmth through a thin carbon wire which weaves around each finger. This system delivers fast, even heat where it's needed without bulk or hotspots, improving dexterity and comfort for the rider.
Ultra thin micro carbon fibre wires are embedded around each of the fingers, providing even and consistent warmth precisely where riders feel the cold most without adding stiffness or bulk.
The G701s use micro carbon fibre heating elements that run around each finger, providing even, full hand warmth. The heat output is effective enough for winter rides and can be controlled via the inbuilt KEIS heat controller button to suit varying conditions.
Are KEIS heated gloves waterproof?
Yes. They incorporate a Hipora® waterproof membrane, which keeps moisture out while allowing sweat to escape, providing breathability and dryness even in extreme rainy conditions. For the best results, we recommend tucking the glove under an outer sleeve to avoid water ingress through the cuff.
With a Hipora® waterproof membrane integrated beneath the shell, the G301 offers outstanding waterproofing and wind resistance while still allowing sweat to escape, preventing clamminess during extended use. Paired with the hydrophobic outer layer, this glove is the perfect solution for heavy rain or sub zero temperatures.
Yes, the gloves feature a semi bonded Hipora® waterproof and breathable membrane. This inner layer blocks rain and wind while allowing internal moisture, such as sweat, to escape, helping keep your hands dry and comfortable during wet or damp rides.
What insulation do KEIS heated gloves use?
Inside, the gloves feature 3M Thinsulate® thermal insulation, which retains warmth efficiently without compromising mobility, dexterity or feel.
These gloves feature a thicker than normal layer of 3M Thinsulate, designed to trap and retain heat even when the heating system is off. This makes them ideal for sub zero rides or long sessions on the road.
They feature 3M Thinsulate™ insulation, a trusted material known for being lightweight, breathable, and excellent at retaining heat. Even when the gloves are turned off, this insulation helps keep your hands warm, making them suitable for use year round.
