What's the difference between this PI Elite Barrier jacket and the PI Infinity jacket? Is this one supposed to be thicker and warmer?

Thick and warm are not two words I would use to describe the Elite Barrier jacket. I've never use the Infinity, but I can't imagine it's any thinner or cooler (or at least not enough to make a difference.) For me, the Elite Barrier does two things: cuts wind (very well) and keeps you dry (kind of, depending on the amount of rain and how much you're sweating.)

No--that's the only think missing though. That's why it's so much cheaper than the official original jacket. For the price difference, I didn't mind that it didn't have the orange stripes. I bought this jacket for my daughter to be Katniss for Halloween. We used orange duck tape to make the orange stripes and also for the number 12 on the back of the jacket. It looked very cool. Afterwards we removed the tape and she has a cool windbreaker/rain jacket.

Hey James. I have to be honest, I can't answer your question. Lol. I bought 2 of these, the "same" ones here on Amazon - one for me, and one for my husband. While both are very warm and work very well, oddly enough, one is thin underarmour type material and one is a thicker fleece. Same tag, same cut, same company, same Amazon listing - but completely different materials. It wasn't really an issue for us because my hubby has a big beard and wanted the thinner one and I took the fleece one but I just have to say I have no idea which one you will get....

The jacket is made of a very soft outer material, and does not appear to be extremely tough. It is lightweight, does not feel heavy, although the jacket is very warm. The lining is visible on the inside as shinny panels. I have a cheaper Down Jacket that I purchased at Sam's years ago that is similar, although it is more comfortable. I never get too hot in that jacket, and I never get cold in our East Tennessee Winters. This Columbia Jacket will probably be warmer and especially useful in colder climates. Wearing it inside only so far, I got hot in a hurry! I also purchased a Carhart Down Jacket that does have a shell made of a much tougher material, but not quite as rough or coarse as the normal Carhart jacket. The Columbia one has a lot of nice features, and I think that I am going to like it.

Barbara, I wonder if you already own the K&H; outdoor extreme weather pad this fleece cover fits over? The plug belongs to the heating unit which may not be clear from the picture. We purchased the fleece cover to replace the pad which came with the unit. We are pleased with both. Jean

It was designed with model b version 1 in mind. However this design makes it universal to all pi models. It holds the board by the protruding connection jacks. I have a b v 2 and there is just a little play for the board to move. It is comprised of 6 sheets cut to shape, and just snap together without tools.all pieces are transparent (blue and clear) and have the protective sheets still on for shipping-so remember to peel both sides of all pieces for a nice simple case.there is enough room that mine runs only a couple degrees warmer than without a case, and it's best not to short circuits....quick shipping, enjoy....

I have the same model (732-500) and have 3 settings. The control doesn't even look like this one. Must be they upgraded?It runs hot. I think warm would be great as low is hot. For a person who's always cold in the winter, that's saying something. : )When I bought this one I also got a regular size. That one is easier to handle. The large one... is... large! I do like it but would recommend getting 2 sizes.Hope this helps.

I'm not sure, I've only tried the weather master, not the weather master elite. But I have to say, we sure do love the weather master!

Hi. This bag may have the same type of insulation since it works very well. The zipper bag inside helps to mantain the cold. Everything is close tight. The gel ice that comes with it (Cold Pax) it's great because it maintais cold better than other brands I have tried. What I have found to be very useful (specially in long trips) is to use two gel ice packages (one in each of the inside bags) instead of one. The advantages of this product over a cooler is that it is much easier to handle than a cooler

Both sets have the same quality non-stick surface. The differences are listed below:- infinite is dishwasher safe; Elite is hand wash only- Infinite has stainless steel lids; Elite has glass lids- Infinite is oven safe to 500 degrees; Elite is oven safe to 400 degreesFrom what I can see, it is somewhat your preference, though I personally like the Infinite.Hope that helps!

Yes, I have both the neoprene sleeve and this one and the lining is the same. Very soft and protective. The color of the fur is white.

You're welcome. I really love this jacket. Mine is solid black though, but I don't think that will make a difference.

Pretty close.The jacket needs to fit close so the heat is close to the body. I am 5' 9" and 160 lbs. I ordered a large for myself since my shoulders are broad and I don't like a tight fit in a coat. It fit great, plenty of room and this thing WORKS! Out on a job the other day in Charlotte and it was 8 degrees for the high and my body never got cold. I'm impressed.

There is only one version of the Baffin Apex. There are two reasons that may account for the image differences. First, the liner appear either to be positioned very low, or was removed entirely for one of the photos. Second, the liners are not always the same color. It may be that one production run had a darker liner, while the other has a grey liner. The liners always have the same warmth quality, even if they look different. If you have any further questions, please contact us at http://winterfootwear.com/contact-us.html. I hope this helps!

I don't know, I returned the jacket right away because the connections were too loose and jacket would not stay warm, if you move at all!
