Venustas Heated Apparel Battery Guide

When it comes to heated apparel, the battery pack plays a crucial role. It powers a wide range of gear, like heated jackets, vests, hoodies, gloves, and socks, by supplying electricity to the built-in heating elements. This allows wearers to feel warmth within seconds. That’s why the type of battery you use can significantly affect both heating performance and overall comfort.

At Venustas, we use a variety of battery types across our heated apparel to optimize both warmth and wearability. In this guide, we’ll explore the battery technology behind our products to help you make an informed choice.

Types of Venustas Battery Pack

Comparison of 5V, 7.4V and 12V 

For our heated apparel, including heated jackets, heated vests, or heated hoodies, we use different types of batteries to provide power. The 5V battery pack is the first type used for our 5V heated apparel. To optimize the using experience, we upgraded our heated apparel to use a 7.4V battery. From the year of 2023, we also release our 12V battery to enhance the power output and heating performance. So, what’s the difference between these batteries? Our customers always want to know which battery is suitable for their individual needs, and they will find useful information in the following.  

Voltage. Voltage is the key difference in these battery packs. For heated apparel, higher voltage means more power for heating elements. The output capabilities rank as follows: 12V > 7.4V > 5V. The 5V battery powers 3-4 heating elements, while the 7.4V and 12V batteries can power 5-6 elements. Additionally, 12V batteries significantly enhance heating performance, providing more efficient and faster heating.

Capacity. The battery capacity determines heating hours for heated apparel. The 7.4V batteries, with capacities of 4800mah offer 8-10 hours of warmth. For the 12V options, the Venustas-7500 battery provides up to 13 hours, and Venustas-10000 battery provides up to 20 hours. 

Output. To optimize the use of batteries, we upgraded our 7.4 batteries and 12 batteries with DC ports. Compared with USB port the DC port not only allows for a more robust power supply but also enhances better heating performance.

Size. Typically, the weight of the battery depends on the capacity and material. Our Venustas-6000 battery is smaller, lighter, and faster-charging, enhancing more portability and convenience during use. With its compact design, it easily fits into your pocket or bag, making it ideal for on-the-go lifestyles. 

Compatibility. 7.4V batteries can charge our 5V heated apparel, 7.4V heated apparel and other electric devices; 12V batteries can charge our 7.4V heated apparel, 12V heated apparel, and other electric devices. (*Remember to plug your apparel into the proper port.) 

Warmth. There are many factors affecting the warmth of heated apparel, including heating settings, heating elements, or clothing fabric. Generally, the battery impacts the heating hours and power output. For example, our Venustas-10000 battery allows our 7.4V heated apparel to work up to 20hrs.
