I didn't realize there was a wireless remote, I'm checking into it for my 10 year old Gerbing jacket-which still works great.
Velcro on the tank works well. Easy to swap to another bike.

Gerbing has a bar mount here that is really reasonably priced at 19.99.

So how does the wireless remote work?

Do you also connect the wired controller to the battery, and then the controller to the heated liner? And control the heat with the wireless controller?

I have a clip on case for my controller and usually when I need heated gear, I’m also wearing chaps. I just clip it on the upper left chap at the thigh level for easy access and has worked well for me for many years.

I have it wired to the battery and pulled the wires up to the front of the seat. Then velcoed to the end.

The wire from the battery is hooked up as normal, just like using a wired controller. There is a wireless receiver and it hooks to the battery wire and the heated clothes hooked up to it. I put that in my pocket and the wireless controller is mounted some place easy to reach. I use velcro so its easy to remove. I also tie the string of the controller to something to use as a safety tether. 100% better than a wired controller. Just carry and extra battery for the controller on a long trip just in case.

Another option is to use a Ram Mount for the additional flexibility.
