I use my heated seats often up here. If it gets too hot, I move the switch to the off position. I also have an electric vest and electric gloves for motorcycle use. The worst cold I have ever experienced was before dawn on a July morning in Wisconsin on the motorcycle, before I left home I thought "This is July, I shouldn't need the vest or gloves" Never again. And I have seen a lot of -20F, and colder. Even in 45F ambient, the wind chill at 70mph is hellaceous.
