Keis Battery Pack
23 December 2022 by Andrew W
Bought this for my Keis vest. I've only used it twice so far but it seems to perform well. Without the optional Keis heat controller it is on max all the time but lasted around 2 hrs 30 mins so pretty good.

Good run time

I have a eight year old 2200mah battery, I thought it was faulty so bought new 2600mah. It proved to be my heated vest was the problem, bought new controller that was not it so ended up with new vest. My old 2200 will run it 3hours,the 2600 4.5hours on low.

Love it
25 February 2020 by John
Arrived quickly and in good condition. This looks and feels a quality product and after charging it fully, off I went on a ride and this kept me lovely and toasty on a 2.5hr ride on medium setting and there was still one bar of battery life remaining. The only negative is that it's a bit pricey.

So glad I bought this.
28 January 2020 by Douglas G
Wasn't to certain about purchase this, it certainly isn't cheap. But once I took the plunge and bought the Keis battery and charger I was so glad that I had. It has opened up so many other uses for my heated vest, walking the dog, working in the garage, working outside, riding other bikes that don't have a hard wire kit installed. The battery seems well made, just wish it had a generic usb charger instead of a stand alone one. So far I have had it on low or medium setting and had 3 hours out of a charge with some left.
Overall I'm very pleased.

Added convenience
18 December 2019 by Anonymous
Added convenience off the bike if all year round biking. Usage has spilled out into walking the dog and work outside during the winter. Also dead handy with my classic car which has no heating and weak charging system. Lasts a good few hours on low which I always find hot enough. Charges quite quickly but buy a 2nd battery if you might need a full days use. Two smaller batteries better than lugging around the larger one to my mind.

Great little battery
03 December 2019 by Reg P
I bought a 2600mh battery for my Keis heated vest, which is going to be very useful when I'm out walking this winter. The battery is quite light and fits neatly into a dedicated inside pocket in the vest which has a port for the connection cable to pass through. Even better you simply shake the battery to illuminate some LEDs that indicate the charge status. Using the Temperature Control Unit I've been getting about 3 hours of heat at medium and I had 2 hours on full power. My feeling is that the vest doesn't get as warm via the battery as it does when the vest is powered by the battery and if you find you need the vest on full power then you may not need the controller. You may be better off buying two batteries instead. The battery charges quite quickly in a matter of a few hours and it has a USB port for charging a phone or similar device. As ever the service and advice from SBS has been spot on. Everything was delivered within 24 hours of ordering it.

Great item

This was a Christmas present but when it was plugged in it went "puff". Returned after speaking to a very helpful person who helped with return and ordered replacement. This was received very quickly, worked perfectly, Very very happy.

When used with G501 gloves
19 December 2018 by Simon S
Bought this to use with the Keis G501 glove. It makes my 5 mile commute much easier than plugging into the bike. With the gloves on high heat, the battery lasts about 45mins. It is then on 1 bar and I cannot feel the heat effect in my fingers. As long as I remember to charge it again, it is OK.
Charge time from empty is good, couple of hours I think last time. Would be nice if it was a bit smaller, can feel it pressing into me through the inside pocket.
I wouldn't want to run it with any other piece of heated clothing. Wouldn't last very long, not on high. Will last longer if you have the heat down lower. Would recommend for a short journey.

Great so far
17 November 2018 by Andy
Only had it a few days but, so far, this is just what I needed. Very compact and fits easily into inside pocket. Would hardly know it was there. Took very little time to fully recharge after a couple of 20 minute commutes.

Honestly, how can you possibly review something that you've only just received? Seems to be the way with all these companies tho - sending out review links straight after, but what the hell - works as far as I can tell, it fits OK in the inside jacket pocket, a bit loose but OK.

A nice warm box
16 February 2018 by Neil J
A battery pack for the Keis heated kit. It looks small and not powerful enough to heat a jacket but it is. It works great. One issue however is that the instructions don't match the product - there must have been an update. The instructions tell of a button that you press to see the amount of charge left. The button is not there. However I found that if you tap the battery the indicator light does work but not all the time.
Still it kept the best I have been warm (low setting) on a 3.5 hour ride at between -2 and 1 degree C.
It comes with a mains charger.
It also has a USB plug to charge your phone.
Overall it's good. And great service from SBS as always.

Questions and Answers

Questions and Answers

  • Will I need to buy an any additional power leads to be able to use this battery with one of the heated vests along with the heat control unit?

    December 17, 2019

    The Keis Heated Vests have an inner pocket, dedicated for a portable battery pack. You can thread the power input cable attached to the vest through this pocket and connect directly to the battery pack - no additional cables are required. The Keis Heat Controllers (optional extra) also have a dedicated pocket with a power socket provided. This allows the controllers to be powered from the battery pack, without the need for additional cables.

  • Can the KEIS HEATED B501W DUAL POWER LADIES BODYWARMER be powered from the Keis 12V Li-on Battery Pack? How long would it last on low power?

    November 14, 2019

    We can confirm that this battery pack will power the Keis Ladies Bodywarmer. On the lowest temperature setting, this battery should power the bodywarmer for just over 2 hours (no more than 2.5 hours).

  • Typically, how long would a battery charge run the heated vest jacket? And can the temperature be changed?

    November 6, 2018

    If the battery is fully charged and only the heated jacket is being powered from it, the battery should last 2-3 hours on a medium heat setting. The heated vest is supplied (when promotions allow) with a heavy duty temperature controller, which has three heat settings and LED indicators.

  • Why can't it power a sleeved jacket? Is there another one that will?

    April 3, 2018

    Unfortunately the sleeved jackets can only be powered from the bike, due to the extra power draw.

  • Does this have the ability to charge from the bike while riding & not needed for powering the heated gear? Cheers.

    January 3, 2018

    Li-Ion Battery Packs can be charged from a vehicle(using the Keis Accessory Plug Lead)

  • Is this a pair of batteries, and can both be charged at the same time ? I want to run some Keis heated gloves and would assume that the batteries fit into the cuff, so would hope that the batteries come in pairs.. Thanks for any clarification !

    October 9, 2017

    You receive one battery and a charger - the battery will need to be placed into a pocket on your jacket, and then connected to the gloves using a Keis Y lead.
