This is great! do you not have any issue with sweat or water shorting out the heating element?

Nice update.

You should have a good basis for monitoring the sensors in various conditions.

You might put it on and visit your local market to see if anyone has a walk in freezer or cooler.

Since you have the other suit, you can do some good comparisons.

Cool project. Yes, pun intended.

I was looking in one of our local tool supplier catalogues the other day.

They had two different heated jackets.

As usual one was a cheaper asian knockoff with different number of heating elements in different locations.

The other was one a Milwaukee. (perhaps this one)

They say they are no longer stocked, so perhaps they had issues.

I'm sure your properly controlled version will be much better.

Plus you've added suitable insurance in it.
