Review – When I was young, I really liked the winter in New York. Sometimes I would wear a T-shirt and shorts outdoors in 50 degrees weather. These days, the cold seems to hurt my bones and joints, and I try to keep warm outdoors. Basically, I hate the cold now, so this wool PRO+ heated vest is a welcome addition to my wardrobe. Let’s see if it really works! !
What is it?
ewool PRO+ is a powered cold-season vest. When it turns all the way up, it can provide up to 51W of torso heating power in just 3 seconds. PRO+ is equipped with a powerful 70W flat battery and an expandable battery bag, designed to fit its dual battery kit, which can provide up to 14 hours of continuous heating. The vest also has an auxiliary cable insertion port to connect the vest to a 12 V DC power supply or an external battery for unlimited heating time.

Design and features
feature
This vest is well packed. It has a strong zipper on the front and a zippered upper pocket. On each side of the vest, there are elastic materials. The bottom left of the vest is the control button, and the back is a battery bag with a zipper. This is also the power connector on the inside of the lower left side of the jacket. There is a card pocket on the lower right side.
Performance
Due to the elasticity on both sides, this vest fits perfectly whether it is worn inside or outside another piece of clothing.
Here are some important notes about the battery:
The battery can be easily placed in the battery bag, and there is room for an optional second battery.
There are 4 LEDs around the control buttons to indicate the battery level. The main button lights up in white and red and controls 3 levels of heating.
This vest is a good example of not all vests are created equal. It is well made and well designed, which makes me feel very warm. It is so comfortable that I wear it even if I don’t need to turn on the heating. The elastic side allows it to fit my body well. Hope that the elasticity can last a long time. I do wish it had a heatable hoodie, if I put it on and sit on a chair with a hard backrest, the battery in the back might be uncomfortable. Fortunately, it is suitable for my car seat and most seats I use regularly. We will spend some very cold days in New York, and I look forward to the comfort that this vest will bring.
what do I like
- The quality of the jacket, including material and structure
- The amount of heat it provides and the length of time it provides heat
- Ability to connect it to the car’s 12Vdc power supply and power it for long-distance travel
- Easy to control
- Comfortable fit
What will i change
Final thoughts
I like this vest very much and I have used it almost every day since I got it. It keeps me warm in not too cold weather. Once it gets cold, I turn on the power and my whole upper body feels warm and comfortable. It can be worn on the outside of the sweater, in very cold weather, on the outside of the shirt, or under the jacket. It is well made and looks like it will last for many years. Except that I wish it had a heated hoodie that I saw on this kind of vest of another brand, it worked well. It is quite expensive, so this will be a personal consideration. well done! !
