The Polaris ones seem to work so good compared to Cat, just wondering if anyone tried it?
Anyone tried Poo hand warmers on your Cat???

I just put RSI grips on my 08 M8 and they are much hotter than the stock crap. RSI has heater elements designed to wrap around the hooks. Just rode this weekend in -15 temps with -40 windchill (standing still) and my hands were nice and warm.

I was looking at those, Its just that I live 1/2 mile from the Poo dealer and can pick them up tomorrow

Look at the design of the poo grips and see if they are made for the hooks. I have heard good things about the poo grips too.
Don,t do it it is known to brake your crank. Moose ones wok well also.

I have Polaris warmers on a couple sled AC's. All I had to do is take the pigtail from the original AC warmers and solder and heat shrink to the Polaris warmers too lengthen them. Resistance readings are quite comparable, and warmers seem much warmer. I did this because I seem to have many Polaris hand warmer elements laying around and the price is right. A good multimeter will show you if this will work for your application. I have done a MC and a TC like this. Good luck....

Now thats funny

They dont cover the h/bar hooks. The RSI ones are about 50% hotter than stock. 30 watts as opposed to 18 watts(I think). I think the RSI ones are less than the Poo ones also.

gross... gross ...gross...l don;t take crap from any a$$ehole even if it didn;t smell and kept my hands warm
jebus! how much are the cat ones or the RSI ones if they are cheaper i'd stick with them. i know when i was riding my old RMK the poo dealor wanted like $30 bucks a piece for warmers, which i always thought was rediculous. this was for a '99
The cat ones work fine if you fill your bars with Great Stuff foam.
B.S. on the foam in the bars. I tried that last year on 2 sleds & could barely feel the difference. Wish I would have bought some decent warmers last season like I'm going to do now.

RSI Grips are close to half the price of Poo grips and they are WAAAAAY hotter, I VERY rarely put them on high, and when they went on high it was for short periods of time because those babies really cook, and they also heat up allot faster.
I recommend you put liquid electrical tape on the contacts (where the wires are soldered on) and then maybe a some regular electrical tape on top of that after it dries. I didn't do this on my sled and when snow/water got in there it started to short out.
