what's the lowest temps these have been used in? any 14 deg and below rides? may 20 deg with some serious wind chills?

Ridden in the teens with these. They are very wind proof and usually I wear a pair of tights under them and they are warm and toasty. My feet are the problem! Remember to order Very Big. I am 32" waist, 160# & 5'-11"+ and XXL worked for me.

I am from Iowa and the temps stay below 0 for days. No problem if the do not have any moisture inside, which mine never have maybe because I keep the sensor 2-4 inches above ground level.

we have had them all summer in Utah which gets very hot. They have worked very well. Not sure about the cold yet. This is the first year they have been out however there have been some freezing days and they seem fine

I bought a pair of these in late September. After about 150 miles of running something within them has given way and makes a noticeable rattling on the control (right ear) side.. They still work though, but just bear in mind that they are a consumable that will not last for years on end. Given that they are rechargeable, I figured I'd get about 18-24 solid months out of them, but sadly that may not be the case. I'll use them till they fail or if the rattling becomes overly obnoxious. I've used them in warm temps, freezing temps, light rain and snow and they work just fine. They aren't water/weatherproof, but given the physical breakdown I'll have no qualms against using them out in the elements. I bought a pair of these in late September.

I mounted the "snowmobile" warmers on my harley and they work just fine. They are supposed to be warmer than the motrocycle ones. I used them in the fog and cold and they work decent. Dont expect blazing heat. On those cold mornings they are nice.

I wish I could tell you. Mine are not super tight & it's been super cold where I am & I have found them to be good. Granted--on one case I did add hand warmers but it was 4-degrees & windy.

Same with my old lady, I haven't been able to try them. Only had one ride and my pipes scraped but I had long softail mufflers on it so went with short shots. Working at sea till end if June but hoping it doesn't bottomOut as we are goin toLaconia pretty much as soon as I get off.

Art - Save your money. Harley stopped selling these because it hasn't been proven that they work. If you're bike tends to overheat, get an oil cooler. An oil cooler is proven to reduce hot temps by 30 degrees or more. I just put one on my bike. Easy install even for a novice with decent mecahnical ability. Check out Ebay's deals too. I've gotten most of my Harley parts on Ebay. Hope this helps. Jim - 2006 Road King

That is an excellent question that I have not experimented with to date. I suspect that if there is no wind you could get it down to 150F. The lowest I have cooked with has been 180F. Trust me though, the wood smokes better at 200 and above. Hope that helps.

As of yet the warmest temperature I've used it in was 80 degrees and it was quite comfortable. I've used it at 0 degree temps but was cold. It helped extremely well with the wind though. Best guess 30-85 F.

I wear these below freezing without too much trouble. They're cold for the first mile, but fine for the rest of the ride. I'm surprised anyone can stand to wear them in the 60's as I find them unbearably hot above 50 or so. This just goes to show how differently people perceive warmth.

I'm not sure..they worked fine above freezing but the colder it got the worse they got.

I bought mine four years ago from Amazon and am using them right now (0 degree temp outside!!!). I think they may put out a little less heat than they once did (though I'm not sure about that), but they're definitely still usable. Seven hours on, they're keeping my hands very cozy.

I have used mine in temperatures as low as 20 below zero (for a string of 5 days) and it functioned flawlessly. The one draw back is the battery life is somewhat reduced by the cold temps. Hope this helps.

I use them for pre- and post-season driving in my convertible. I've had no trouble with cold seeping in - including highway speeds in low 40 temps. Unsure if using them in true frigid weather would keep you warm enough - but then again, layering is always best.

They're supposed to be good to 28c. I'm riding 25s, so I haven't actually checked.

I can only answer from a road cycling perspective as I got these for riding in colder weather. However feet moving for running is a different matter than feet moving on pedals. I was "okay" at 40 degrees F, although I would've liked my feet to have felt warmer.
