Gloves
My wife has both types of gloves and she likes the battery the best as when she gets off the bike her hands stay warm, the grips keep one side warm and the gloves keep the back of her hands warm, she keeps them on med. and they last all day, we rode a polar bear run on New Years day and it started out at 28 and never got above 40, we started at 9:00 am and rode till 4 PM. She also rides with a heated jacket and pants that are wired to the bike , I installed a jack on her RT and it only took several hours to complete.

If you are interested in heated gear (wired) I'd be happy to quote you pricing. I carry Firstgear (which is simply re-branded Warm & Safe). Very good quality. My pricing is usually a fair amount less than what you'll pay anywhere else.
Both battery and wired systems have their advantages. Generally, for shorter rides in milder temperatures a good set of battery pack gloves will do the job. Batteries can last all day depending on how much heat they have to provide.
Wired will give you unlimited heat for any length of time. Wiring isn't that difficult and you only have to do it once. And if you're going to get a heated jacket liner or more (pants, socks) then wired is really the only way to go.

Follow up (1/6/16): I received the Mobile Warming LTD Max Heated Gloves today. The fingers were too long as they always are for me with gloves. I tried them in the house. They didn't get particularly warm with the battery set on 100%. I'm returning them. I will update you on whatever I find that works.
I went to a local dealer. He had a very limited supply of heated gloves. I tried a number of them on. The sizes vary from manufacturer to manufacturer because they use Roulette wheels to determine the size. I went home with the Venture Epic 2.0 battery heated gloves. They worked well in the store. This weekend, I will try them on the bike in the cold.

For a very short period they will be even on heat until the battery pack starts to drain versus the wired version which is constantly being charged and the heat will stay consistent.

Cold? weather test. 1/8/16. Today was 41 degrees F. It wasn't very cold. But, it was what it was. I started out with the gloves on high. After 15 minutes my hands started to sweat. I lowered the heat to medium. After 15 minutes, my hands were still sweating. I lowered the heat to low. After 15 minutes, my hands were still sweating. So, I switched the heat off. I continued riding for an hour and a half at an average speed of 50 mph. When I got home, my hands were a little cool, but not cold. My guess it that they will do fine in cold weather. Comfort? They are bulky and uncomfortable like any well insulated winter glove.
