    Mountain nothing. The first place we'll see this is probably down a busy street in winter. I predict 70% chance of shutter glasses hovering above it.

    So, I wonder if there is any hazard like you get from electric blankets (EMI, RFI...)...you see my tin hat, right?

    This will go great with the fuzzy bear and rabbit USB hand warmers.

    Then the person wearing this trips and falls and a tree branch or something goes into the battery and it starts to leak.

    You know, I lived in Alaska for 17 years, and never had electrically heated clothing. I'm pretty sure anybody I knew had any either. Sounds like a bad idea really. Would cause people to not dress properly, "I have heated clothes! I don't need layers!", then the battery dies.

    If your phone needs recharging when you're freezing to death, I imagine that USB connection would come in pretty handy, should you decide you need to call for help, or want to use your iFlashlight app to signal a search party.

    This is gonna sound crazy... But I'm going to have to ask you guys to bear with me on this one, as it's gonna make me look like a raving lunatic...

    Charge your gadget when and where you charge your jacket.

    @SEDAGIVE?!: but what if your gadget runs out of juice while you're away? If you haven't been using the heating option of the jacket, you've got power for a few more seconds for your phone/mp3 player/laser pointer/heated mug/coffee pot/flashlight all-in-one device.
