The only thing I could keep thinking was "how do I get the USB cord to fit into the horse"? It's a bit expensive for me, especially when I think of a coat catching on fire and melting on me like a piece of plastic wrap.

If it works it might be nice for ice fishing or sitting in a duck blind, but for active cold weather sports you are far better off dressing in layers and sans electricity.

Sounds like one of those if it's "too good to be true" things. I wouldn't waste my money on it. I find dressing in layers works best. Once you start moving around it doesn't take long to warm up.
