So in 2006 I bought some gauntlet gloves from HD that are heated... not cheap.

This year I came across the new heated 'sweater' that has the connections for gloves plus a thumb hole (Doh... about time!!!) however, you are also supposed to buy a new pair of gauntlet gloves at $230!!! (Thank you HD for maintaining compatibility... grrrrrr).

So back in the cobwebs in my brain I remembered that someone says that Gerbing makes the stuff that HD uses for electric gear. I go to their website and they have male to male adapters for 11 bucks a piece that they are carrying just to solve this stupid issue... so if you are considering this new heated sweater but you have old heated gear, then Gerbing is the place for you!
