Heated Clothing Hookup for 2 liners

okay ... I know it is summer, but we plan on being in some cool places ....

We're buying two heated liners and two sets of heated gloves and I know the gloves hook into the jacket liner.

QUESTION: Do I need a splitter to connect both jacket liners to the Connecting Harness?

I also plan on purchasing the Dual Control Thermostat for both jacket liners ...

Thanks!

I would say yes. Check with the manufacturer. I have found Gerbing's to be very helpful and they make very high quality products. Someone obviously makes the stuff for HD...don't know if it is Gerbing's or Widder. You'll love that jacket liner........

I had heated grips and vest on my last bike. No question, they are great.

Got my answer ... called Gerbing ... the heated liners come with the battery connector. So if you have two liners, you hook both of them up ...

Chicago Harley offers the heated clothing at a pretty good price ... about $176 for the liner ... Retail is $220 from Harley and $199 from Gerbing ...

Had mine for years, and let me tell you, it is wonderful. I wear it over a long sleeve T-shirt under my jacket. I have the old-style "classic" gloves from Gerbing's, and they are warm, but like wearing hockey gloves or catcher's mitts. If you buy their gloves, buy the newer "streamlined" version. Costs a little more but having the dexterity is priceless. HD heated grips are fine, but they tend to lose their warmth if you take your hands away momentarily......plus, they do nada for the back of your hands. They do allow you to wear a lighter weight glove, however.
Just my 2 cents, but Gerbing's is a great outfit and made a believer out of me.
