Heater for you wet/dry suit .....


When searching for thermal layer to use with my Lucifer I found this......

http://www.heatedwetsuits.com/

Price is crazy and 1.5h of battery life is not something that covers you whole session ......
.... also.... not sure how well wetsiut slides on thop of that thing....
....just another product that get you half excited .....

Any suggestions for good skin to go under you dry suit for good price ???
I found this .....

Consider army surplus ECWCS "brown" polypro thermals, tons of them on ebay and at a fraction cost of polyolefins.
These will keep you super warm, comfortable , they wick moisture away and keep you warm even when completely soaked thru (sweat or leaky drysuit).
I use them as base for snow kiting and with the drysuit.

Mood: chilled....but ready to RAGE

the idea of wearing SOMETHING ELSE under your suit is a mystery to me. the suit application gets me sweating, couldn't imagine doing it with a fleece stuff/poly whatever already on. WIND protection seems more the issue. a diver obviously needs more. i have worn a 3/2 during the winter and the best added step , a raincoat with a hood, no insulation. basic cover from the wind.

got a new suit 5/3 semi dry. had to dunk to stay cool, what a sweat box. got wind skin coating super hot, neil pryde 3000 ?or ? 5000. anyway, a regular session buddy got it for me and he said it made HIM cold to see me session in 3/2 in dead of winter.

price is crazy for an electric shirt. for an astronaut/pro diver sure, i think it may be cheaper to buy ticket to the DR!

Doneski i don't think you would piss a decent suit, i don't ...anymore!

That's just nasty. I've NEVER done that. I don't loan wetsuits and don't borrow them for just that reason alone.

looks like nice wind 15-20mph all this week ...... and my booties and gloves are in mail ..... hoping to try Lucifer for a first time next weekend .... water temp in bay is around 45F and air 40-50F right now ...... and sadly looks like getting colder in next few days ....... for now I will try my under armor and bring with me my 3/2 wet suit just in case thats is not enough .....
.... I am sure the best way to find out how much insulation I need is to try it ....lol..... Hope to finally get some rides .....
