do I need to buy a charger or batteries to go with this?

You will need to buy a controller to go with them. I have a single controller that runs the jacket and the gloves and plugs into the battery on my bike. I think there is also a battery pack you can use but I haven't had any experience with it. There is also a dual controller if you want separate control for different garments. The gloves come with a long split wire if you are using them without the jacket.

Mine plug right into the cables coming out of the sleeves of my tour master heated jacket liner. The jacket liner plugs directly into a cable that is attaché to the bikes battery. In other words, I don't think there is a way to use the gloves without having a heated jacket to plug them into. They don't take batteries.

Negative.. the batteries are 18650 rechargeable batteries there like twice the size of a double A. Should come with battery and charger. And lot more convenient being you won't have to keep buying batteries.

I would buy another one when the one I have now dies, but I don't need a second one while my first one is still working. Yes, mine did come with a battery and charger when I bought it.

Yes, as stated above you need the battery and charger. Awesome gift though.

yes it came with a charger and battery. The battery was not that great and now i need to have it plugged in because the battery will not hold a charge. The battery didn't last that long when i got it when it had a full charge and slowly got worse.

Hi Lianet, When I purchased this it did not come with batteries and it requires 4 AA's. There is no charger as it runs on batteries. Other than that it came with everything listed. Hope this helps.

guess it depends who you're buying it from. Generally, they do come with a charger, but the last one I bought did not and it was cheaper, of course.

Yes, you need a battery and a Charger. Make sure to get a good charger if you buy LiPo battery, and NEVER charge it unatended as it can take fire! I will recomend you to get one LiPo safe bag aswell to keep the battery in. Otherwise than that this thing is ready to go! :D

The charger comes with the unit. You should not have to purchase a charger.

Since it uses regular batteries, it only comes with a power cord that is 12V. It has a 'charge' port, so if using chargeable batteries, you would need to get a charger cord.

Comes with a battery and a charger but the battery needs charging prior to use.

I bought ours a few years ago and it did comeWith a charger. I would also recommend buying an extra battery.

No you do not need batteries, it comes with a micro USB cord that will plug into any charger or computer. Once it is charged, I usually get about 4 full iphone charges out of it before it needs to be recharged again.

Yes, it comes with a battery and charger. Suggest you might want an extra battery as well. Never know when your project is taking a little more energy than planned.

It comes with a rechargeable battery, and a recharge cradle that plugs into an outlet. It is not a regular battery, so you need the charger.

I use the charger . . . lol, never thought to look inside to see if it took batteries. Did yours come with the plug-in charger?
