Help me to understand, Keis Bluetooth heat controller

[sickpup]

I think I got too old as I just don't understand the Keis Bluetooth heat controller.

It hangs down on the left hand side just like the normal controller and is as easy to use as a standard controller while riding.
It also has Bluetooth connectivity so you can control it with your phone on a phone mount on your bike which is illegal while riding (the required app warns you of this) and more involved than pressing a button so whats the point of it?

Illegal to use in some countries but there are other places in the world You know, the places where the TikToks come from showing accidents after someone's been fiddling with their phone

'Warm & Safe' do a remote control unit with a simple turn dials on a matchbox sized, erm box that could be mounted on a bracket or flat surface of a fairing. Whether they work with Keis kit I don't know.

Anyone ever tried it?

I have a pair of Furygan Heat Blizzard heated gloves with a battery in each cuff. They’re good. The app seemed cool at first but I don’t use or need it. I could have them activate and warm up 10 mins before a set time every morning but meh! Otherwise there’s a controller on each cuff but they Bluetooth each other, which is nice. I can’t see myself ever using less than max battery (setting 3) even though a boost is available if you buy the glove-to-bike battery cable, but I don’t like being tied to the bike like that.

I have to admit a certain amount of ghey-ness on my part. Last ride out I went as far as zipping up the front vents on my jacket

So you can pre heat your heated clothing before you put it on?

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

It's the modern way. Why use a switch when you can use a microprocessor. Same with cars, use a computer to detect you pressed a button which then sends a signal to a relay to operate the motor to wind the window down. When old and outdated systems just connected the down button to the window motor.

It's called progress, get with the program you luddite!
