What Is a Best Heated Vest for Hunting?

----“It’s hard to imagine that you go hunting in the bitterly cold winter.”

----“Hahaha, I brave the cold because I have a heated vest for hunting.”

As a hunter, I almost spend my whole life in the wild. Hunting means a lot to me. It’s a lifelong habit that takes over a part of my life. It’s also one of the earning sources to support my family. I get excitement and money from hunting. On the other hand, I hate hunting in the winter. You know, winter in Canada is cold as hell. It is difficult to move a step in the extremely cold weather, not to mention go hunting. However, this winter is different owing to the heated vest.

Heated vest as a miracle to against the cold can generate heat through the heated system to warm your body. For most hunters, a heated vest would be the best companion in the cold wild. So, what’s the best heated vest for hunting and how to choose the best one? This article will tell you about that.

How to choose a heated hunting vest?

• Warmth

This is the main factor highly valued by people when purchasing a heated hunting vest. Whether a heated vest provides enough warmth or not greatly depends on the heated elements, temperature setting, and battery.

Heating element as a special item inside the apparel can automatically produce heat to keep your body warm. In most heated vests, carbon fiber elements and graphene elements commonly enjoy high ratings due to the excellent thermal conductivity and damage-proof ability.

Temperature setting as a handy design is a guarantee to bring you a comfortable temperature. Normally, a heated vest offers three adjustable heat settings: low level, medium level, and high level.

Battery is the main support for the production of heat. Without the battery, the heated vest likes rubbish which cannot achieve its value. Glanced at the market, lithium batteries are more likely to receive better feedback than others.

• Waterproof and windproof

It seems that nobody can predict whether it’ll be rainy or windy when outing for hunting, even an experienced hunter. So, it means that selecting a heated hunting vest featuring outstanding waterproof and windproof ability is a must.

As a general rule of thumb, the material determines the waterproof and windproof ability. On the market, it usually uses polyester or nylon against the water and wind as the outer of the heated vest, enabling hunters to get rid of the hunting problem caused by extreme weather. Moreover, some heated vests are designed with zipper pockets, which is aimed at accommodating the battery to prevent water intake.

• Durability

Nobody hopes that the heated vest is out of work after wearing it several times. Durability is one of the most basic factors to stimulate hunters’ purchase desire.

For most hunters, hunting is an outdoor activity needing a lot of physical energy to catch the wild animal. That requires hunters should wear a heated vest that has good characteristics for wear resistance. Most manufacturers specializing in heated apparel mostly use polyester and nylon which are more hardwearing than other materials. Besides that, most heated vests are suitable for machine-wash, which greatly ensures the durability of the apparel.
