Heated Gloves

FAQs

Yes. For many people, heated gloves are a worthwhile investment as they are particularly effective when used for outdoor sports, when completing outdoor work, or when travelling during the colder months. Individuals find they are better able to move their fingers and hands while wearing them.
That depends on your needs. Everyday heated gloves are a great, versatile option for those who want simplicity and might use them in a variety of scenarios. However, if you are working out in freezing cold conditions, you may want to consider using the ActionHeat Heated Snow Gloves. There are also stylish heated gloves, such as the Women's Battery Heated Leather Dress Glove.
The best heated ski gloves are the ones that combine reliable warmth, long-lasting battery life, and durable construction to keep your hands comfortable in freezing conditions.

If you plan on being out in the snow for an extended period, choose the ActionHeat's Heated Snow Gloves.

Yes – heated gloves are completely safe to wear when keeping your hands warm in the cold weather. Each pair is engineered with flexible carbon-fiber heating elements and temperature-regulating circuitry to deliver consistent, comfortable warmth. To ensure safe use, always follow the care and charging instructions, avoid using damaged batteries, and turn off the heat when storing your gloves.
Heated gloves work by using thin, flexible heating elements built into the fabric to gently warm your hands and fingers. These elements are powered by small, rechargeable batteries that connect to the gloves through a secure cable system. When powered on, the heating panels distribute warmth evenly to keep blood circulating and prevent your hands from getting cold.
Always start by removing the batteries, as water damage will destroy them. From there, wash the gloves by hand using mild dish soap and warm water. You can also spot-clean if only one area is dirty. Once cleaned, hang the gloves up to air dry, always avoiding ringing out the water, as this could cause damage to the heating elements.

ActionHeat offers two main power options for its heated gloves including AA battery-powered and 5V rechargeable battery-powered, each designed to match different needs and budgets.

AA Battery-Powered Gloves: These gloves use standard AA batteries, making them a convenient option for casual use or as a backup on long trips. They provide up to 4–5 hours of warmth depending on battery quality and temperature settings. AA-powered gloves typically offer one consistent heat level and are a great entry-level choice for light outdoor activities or daily commutes.

5V Rechargeable Battery-Powered Gloves: These premium models are powered by rechargeable 5V lithium-ion batteries, delivering stronger and longer-lasting heat through ultra-thin carbon-fiber heating panels. Users can choose from three heat settings (Low, Medium, High) to customize warmth up to 150°F. On a full charge, 5V gloves last up to 5+ hours on low, 3 hours on medium, and 2 hours on high. The rechargeable batteries are compact, lightweight, and easily plug into the built-in cable system.

It depends on the specific gloves, but generally, yes. Most high-quality heated gloves are designed with touchscreens in mind, so you can still use your smartphone and tablet without having to take the gloves off. It's best to check the description of the heated gloves first to be completely sure!
ActionHeat's heated gloves feature LED lights to indicate when the gloves are heated. Ghost mode allows you to switch off this LED light, which can be useful when you don't want to be visible (for example, when out hunting). You can control ghost mode with a switch near the temperature control button.
