Patrick should be weighing-in here soon and he can tell us the suit voltage.
They were WWII vintage bomber suits. I had a pile of them and ended up donating them to the Hill AFB museum. They were 28VDC. They came with gloves, boots and a hood that could be plugged into the suit.
I'm thinking that his deisel Benz might be a 24 volt system?
No, she's 12VDC so the suit never did heat up as much as it could.
That's what his primary ride was back in those days. And BTW, it's still in the same pristine condition that it was back then.
Danke! And she just had here 40th birthday in May. Needless to say she no longer goes out of the house unless the skies are clear and the roads are clear and dry. Mercedes über alles! patrick
