Keis heated clothing technology
Respected British distributor and parts/accessory designer Motohaus Powersports has responded to what it believes is a gap in the winter riding apparel market with the development of its own brand of electrically heated clothing.
Designed to embrace the latest available lightweight heating technology and combine it with top grade apparel materials, the Keis range can be powered by either the motorcycle or a nickel cadmium battery pack.
First launched five years ago, Motohaus has developed the Keis range ever since in order to offer dealers and riders access to an apparel line that is genuinely hybrid in that neither the warming/power technology nor the garment specification have been compromised in terms of comfort and reliability.
Motohaus is now ready to expand production and is therefore seeking to develop availability in Europe through importers/distributors, dealers and selected web shops.
Motohaus has been involved with heated clothing brands for over 20 years, however disappointment in materials and the reliability of heating systems for riding apparel drove the company to create the first product in the Keis range, a dual-power hybrid heated body warmer, and since then the range has expanded to include gloves of various styles, three designs of jackets, riding trousers, grips and insoles.
The clothing is feature-rich, using a breathable lightweight soft shell fabric with elasticated side panels, dedicated zipped pockets for the cables and controller and strategically positioned heat panels on the chest and kidney areas. With a current draw of 1.5A and typical power (for the X10 body warmer) of 18W, the range is genuinely specified to run either off a connection to the motorcycle’s battery or to use the dedicated 12VNiMH.
Using 'Micro Alloy Element Technology' to provide beneficial Far Infra Red Radiation, the team involved in the design and manufacture of the Keis range draw on over 30 years of heated clothing experience.
Additional features include advanced fuse management, a range of garment-specific power ratings and controller options and accessories that have all been developed with ease and convenience of use and reliability foremost in the design and manufacturing specifications.
