Electric suits

[cphillipsea1]

Ijust wondering if anybody else had this problem. I received for Christmas a pair of Electric socks and I put them on for the second time hooked into the electrical plug and I shorted out. Just wondering if I was the only one to have this problem

Yikes...!!

120v...would do it:roflblack: Have not ever used them or heard of them shorting out. What brand are they..?? must have some warranty and you should be able to return them or exchange them...:dontknow:

You shorted out is sort of a vague description. Did it blow a fuse, socks catch on fire due to short, the socks don't work but the suit does or any other of many variables.
Also what brand of suit and socks do you have?
I use First Gear coat, pants, and socks purchased from Bajaron and have had zero problems.

HMMMMM didn't think of that one but 120 volt and 12 volt looks pretty close.
That would be one hot time for a little while:yes::yes:

Where did the socks come from, and is there any way to return them? :dontknow:

Gerbing is the brand. The sock shorted out did not blow the fuse burn a hole in the side of the sock I've got the whole suit it's a 12 volt. It came from the warming store.

This not a common problem. Since you got them from a reliable store,I would call them and see what you have to do for a replacement.

:agree: Gerbing just might be the "Gold Standard", when it comes to heated clothing. You should have no trouble... :thumbup:

Ah see, you put the left sock on the right foot.
