Default Question about heated gear

Does anyone know if the Gerbing heated socks work with Venture heated pants liner? The connections are the same. Would there be any other reason they wouldn't work??

Make sure that you have a large enough fuse in the heated gear wiring harness.

Agree that as long as the connector is the same, no problem. I certainly hope you have a dual controller as you will need one. Also look to lightly layer the socks. I wear a very thin pair under the heated sock as well as another very thin pair on the outside. Inside to protect the sock from sweat, outside to protect the sock from wear. Just my logic and yours may/will vary.

Venture heat comes with built in controller if socks are hooked to the pants.
