Undergarment

John,

It sounds like you have had a lot better luck with yours than I did with one that I bought about 10 years ago.

Mine was about $400 back then and had a seperate battery pack and thermostat. It went into my suit through a plug and would heat up one spot at a time.

It worked out OK as a wetsuit heater, but I never had much luck with it as a drysuit heater. For wetsuit use I would wear it down in hte spine area of my wetsuit. that way everytime I would move around warm water would get squeezed out of that pocket and into the rest of the suit. For drysuit use I wore the pad on my belly and it would just warm up that one spot, but nothing else.

I know that Greg Zamebeck used to use electric motorcycle underwear under his drysuit. He had it rigged to a DiveRite neutralight cansiter and even had made gloves that would hook into the system.

In the end, my thermostat unit went out and the company went out of buisness. After that I just stuck with thinsulate and argon.
