A premium heated mid-layer for all-weather riding. Micro Carbon Fibre heated panels in the sleeves, chest, neck and back deliver even warmth. Far Infrared heating mimics natural sunshine to stabilise core temperature. Breathable softshell construction adds comfort. A central power hub links to other KEIS garments. This KEIS heated jacket is ideal under a motorcycle jacket; part of the trusted KEIS heated clothing and heated apparel range. Easily pairs with KEIS heated gloves or trousers for a full heated motorcycle clothing setup. Includes a free KEIS power controller.
Got this for heated trousers. Ppl say it can be hard to locate the ordinary controller. Installed app. When bt controller is power you just cycle through the power levels. V easy. The controller just needs power. It does not have to be on. It would be good if the app was digitally signed by Keis and not the developer. I have not used the controller yet on the bike so cannot comment on reliability.
After years of layering up in cold weather and giving the lads stick for wearing heated gear I’ve joined them. My only regret is not having done so a lot earlier in life.
Arthritis makes me prone to pain on cold rides, this jacked is warm even when unplugged, but comes with three heat settings. I also bought the G701 heated gloves which are superb and again three heat settings
Jacket comes with wiring for 12v battery hook up and a FOC controller attached to the jacket.
Great value at £200 jackets £190 gloves
Note- no more layers just a Zerofit long sleeve theremal and the Keis as a mid layer and riding jacket over

Battery Run Times
12v 5000mAh Battery Pack
This calculation is based on an average run time on medium heat. Battery condition, environment, storage and usage all take effect on this run time so it is used for guidance of garment performance only and is not a guarantee.
Should have done this 51 years ago when I started.
Not cheap but a good quality product very well presented and delivered within 24 hours!! Worth every penny. The sizing hints worked perfectly and it fits snug under my old Belstaff textile jacket. Easily wired to the bike in five minutes it connects securely and the controller is conveniently placed and easy to use.
Been in the Mendip Hills for a four hour trial at declining +6 Celsius and the conclusion is "warm as toast" and that on low and occasional medium setting. High setting I imagine would be like a sauna!!!!
Over joyed "brilliant, tip top, fantastic and warm" Many thanks for a great heated jacket that does what it says on the tin.
Very Best Regards Barry the toasty biker.

Must have
Brilliant bit of kit, I lost mine recently and immediately replaced it , that's how important this jacket is. I can wear a light summer jacket with this underneath so no bulky jackets, and with the push of a button instant heat and comfort unbelievable.

J501 Heated Jacket

jacket & heat get 5 Stars
The jacket & heat get 5 stars from both bike & battery power, however I question the Baulk of the connections, these need to be flat (like usb) because they take up sooooo much space in the sleeves when connecting to gloves, this needs to be more PREMIUM design !! in my opinion it lets down the whole concept. other than that as I said 5 star

Jacket and gloves
Fabulous gear makes riding in cold weather a brilliant experience just enjoy the ride without freezing to death
Why Wear Heated Gear
If you're an all-weather rider, you'll know that the winter months can mostly be unpleasant to ride through. Especially in the UK.
Increased Control:
When your hands are cold, you lose dexterity which can make bike handling difficult. Heated gloves help minimise loss of control
Increased Comfort:
Simply put, being cold is uncomfortable. Heated kit helps make your winter rides that extra bit more enjoyable
Reduced Risk:
Being cold increases your risk of road accidents, as your reaction time and concentration decreases. Being warm on the bike equates to added protection
Flexibility:
Ride without the bulk! Heating gear eliminates the need to wear multiple heavy layers, which can prove uncomfortable when on the bike for longer periods of time
