An improvement on older models
03 May 2024 by Keith
First of all Sportsbikeshop's service was excellent as ever.

I bought this controller to replace a previous model which has seen many years of service. I ride all year and do a fair bit more mileage than average (apparently!)

This latest controller is better in two respects. Firstly it resets to the previous setting when plugged in and secondly the connectors are now at a right angle which should hopefully make them less prone to wire breakage. This is where the previous model failed.

A little better and a little worse
28 November 2023 by Charlie W
The controller is easy to use once you remember the trick to unlock red and amber settings. They have moved to what feels like a more robust cable which is a win for me as I seem to end up replacing mine every other year. The cables are a little longer too which I also appreciate as my old one would occasionally unplug if I moved too much on the bike - eg standing up to stretch my legs.

On the down side the new cable is very rubbery - it catches on my arms when I put them through my jacket - then when I try to pull it back through it sticks to the lining of my jacket.
At £40 it is really getting too expensive to keep having to replace this every second year too.

Rubberised cable sheath
13 February 2023 by Paul F
I bought this to replace my old one that broke. They have updated the design very slightly, including changing the coating/material of the wire sheath, which is now what I consider a bit rubbery and causes it to stick/cling to the inside of the arm of my jacket when I need to pull out the connector to attach it to my gloves. The old cables flowed easily through my jacket arms as they had a shiny and glossy finish. Not a huge problem, however, when pulling from the connector at the wrist every day I can predict it will be a potential breaking point given the force now required.

Great little device

It's generally a great bit of kit and I seem to wear out or every 3 years (wires break inside) but it's cheap enough to replace as I have done.
I've had the gloves for over 10 years and this us the 3rd controller. Always great service from sportsbikeshop.

Seems to have more robust cables than the original type. Easy to use to control heated gloves and reliable so far..

Gerbing Junior Controller short lead
30 August 2021 by Andrew H
Controller is excellent, however unlike my original item supplied with the gloves, the power lead is very short necessitating the purchase of an extension lead to avoid having the Controller flapping in the wind. I tried a universal co-ax but power feed was an odd size.

Revised wiring harness and plug design. I am expecting this controller to last longer than the last which was approx 3 years

Delivered quicker than expected and has been redesigned with heavier gauge wiring and a separate splitter so hopefully should last longer than my original one.

Good bit of kit
18 December 2020 by Jon
The only thing tht stops me giving this five stars is thst the last one I had only lasted a couple of years. however, I think this model has been replaced by a newer one now.

I like this one coz its cheap and easy to use (for me anyway) once the "higher levels" have been unlocked.

Very good kit
10 December 2020 by Kevin P
Heated gloves are a must, you cannot go back after these. The controller is a simple to use well thought design. I bought a new one as the ever excellent Sportsbikeshop had a good offer. Only one small point is that if you move around on the bike a bit, you occassionally press the button between your leg and the fuel tank, which alters the heat setting, but this is really easy to remedy, just press the button again.

Improved replacement Gerbing Controller.
06 March 2020 by Peter R
My original Gerbing Junior Controller worked fine, unless it rained. Gerbing themselves could find no fault with it, but it would always be ok after drying out. I bit the bullet and bought a replacement from Sportsbikeshop, and found a couple of improvements in the new one. Most importantly the wiring that supplies the gloves now terminates in a sealed junction block rather than both going directly to the controller, thus halving the fault liability. Also the gauge of the wiring is thicker, or at least the insulation is thicker, which is another plus. I've only marked this as a 4 purely because,although we've had plenty of rain, I've had no reason to ride in it yet.

Straightforward to use, just a bit fiddly to get the gloves sealed around the wires.
