DEWALT DCHJ067B-L 20V/12V MAX Bare Hooded Heated Jacket, Black, Large

Love this. As a thin guy working as an electrician in Alaska, it gives me that extra warmth that having a couple layers of fat would give you. The hot is toasty, the medium is a good regulation temperature, and the low is so minimal it is pretty much useless. Lasts 3 hours on maximum heat on a 2 amp battery.

The 2 amp hour battery only lasts for about 3 hours at maximum setting. I ran it with 5 amp hour batteries because I am in the DeWalt ecosystem and I had the batteries lying around. 5 amp hour is just enough to get through 10 hours of a work day on full power the majority of the day. I've been machine washing it on the delicate cycle. I've been hanging drying It like the instructions and the tag say to do. It's dead reliable And dead simple. I've recommended this to at least three co-workers.

The hoodie fits very well. Without the battery it's very comfortable and durable. The cable for the battery can be routed to the front pocket near your chest or to the pocket on the back. I prefer the back because I do a lot of work with my hands, but if I have to drive a forklift I swap it over to the front. I work in a refrigerated food processing plant most of the day. Rather than wearing a big, bulky jacket I decided to go with this hoodie which provides extra warmth while still being light. The room is between 25-35F and it does well. When you turn on the hoodie it starts out in high heat, then after a few minutes it switches itself to low heat. At that point I usually crank it back up to high. My 3Ah slim Dewalt battery lasts about 2 days of moderate use. On a full battery I could keep it on high for an entire 10 hour shift which is pretty impressive. The next day it might die half way through the shift. I haven't tested with a 2Ah battery yet but I am optimistic about the results. Rated 4 stars because the battery is bulky and makes it a little bit uncomfortable. But if you have a lot of Dewalt stuff this goes well with the collection. All around satisfied with it.

The Dewalt Max Bare Hooded Heated Jacket (DCHJ067B) is an absolute game-changer for working in cold conditions. Made from durable polyester, the jacket is tough enough to handle job site wear and tear while still being comfortable and lightweight. The heating elements work exceptionally well, providing consistent warmth across the chest and back, and the adjustable heat settings allow me to customize the warmth depending on the weather. Paired with a Dewalt 20V battery, it offers long-lasting heat, keeping me comfortable for hours. I also love the hooded design, which provides extra protection against wind and cold, making it ideal for outdoor work, hiking, or just everyday use in chilly weather. The fit is unisex and true to size, with enough room for layering underneath if needed. Overall, this jacket is a fantastic investment for anyone who spends time outdoors in the winter. It’s durable, stylish, and most importantly, incredibly warm! Highly recommended for both work and casual use.

Nice Looking Hoodie. Battery Pocket is deep and wide. Im 6’ / 180lbs and ordered the Large. It fits snug with only a tshirt or similar long sleeved shirt under. Which is exactly the fit i wanted. I had an initial issue of the heat panels not coming on at first, even with a fully charged battery. The next issue was the heater turning off on its own, about 10 minutes in. When it worked i could really feel the heat on my back, the chest notsomuch. I wore it indoors first to test time/temp. About 3 hours. I began on High(Red) and had to lower to the medium(white) after about 30 minutes. About 10 minutes later i noticed it shut itself off. Started process over with no problems after that. Wore it outside next day to push snow. 25 degrees out. A columbia winter coat with a fleece liner. High Heat(Red). Again, you can really feel the heat on your back, the chest notsomuch. But it stayed powered up for the hour or so i was outdoors.. Overall: its a nice hoodie, little disappointed initially due to the unexplained power offs and chest panels lacking heat. Fit is pretty spot on. I typically wear XL shirts & hoodies because i prefer a looser fit. The L was snug, as i expected. Again, im 6’ 180lbs Ill give it some time and update this review.

1 star because the discription falsely states that the jacket works with 12v batteries. Only works with 20v which are very bulky especially combined with the thick power adapter. Giving you a 2"x 3"x 5" brick you have to carry around. If you could use the smaller 12v packs it wouldn't be so bad. Also there's no battery gauge on the jacket, it relays on the battery gauge that only comes on the newer 50 dollar a piece battery packs. I only have the older DeWalt packs that don't have the gauge. I might return and get the Milwaukee jacket. You can get four battery packs for 40 bucks and they're half the size

I started with the M12 line from Milwaukee even though I have been using Dewalt tools since their 18v and 24v days. I chose Milwaukee because at the time Dewalt did not offer much in terms of 12v tools. But now I have upgraded all my old 18 & 24v tools to Dewalt XR20v ones and thought I'd try their hoodie even though I already own 3 jackets from big M. What I like.. Huge zipped pocket for your phone. The Milwaukee jackets have small pockets that don't fit my phone so definitely appreciate this. 2 places to put your battery. I don't have any Dewalt 12v so I just use the Milwaukee sleeve and battery in my Dewalt hoodie. I like that you can place the battery in the back or in front. Sometimes when you are sitting in your car having the battery in the back is uncomfortable so having the option to relocate it is good. The bad Handwash? What's with that? Milwaukee says throw theirs in the washing machine and that's what I have done a million times. We will see how that goes, I have not yet needed to wash my Dewalt Hoodie. 20v, I don't think so. OK, several points here. First off, If you think you are going to slap a 20v battery on this and be comfortable you have some reality heading your way. First off, the Dewalt adapter is HUGE! not to mention that even if you have some DeWalt 1.5ah or 2ah slim batteries they are HUGE and once you combine that giant adapter and huge battery you end up with this monstrous thing that is not only bulky but heavy. Want to throw on a 5.0ah batt? Well, not unless you want to deform the hoodie with a huge sag where the battery goes. I will, however, admit that I use the Dewalt adapter and a 5ah batt with my heavy (Toughshell) Milwaukee jacket but that is only if I am going to be outside in brutal weather all day and the material of that jacket is so heavy that it doesn't deform under the battery's weight. The Dewalt hoodie has the button on the inside and the Milwaukee has it on the outside. Secondly, the Dewalt button seems to require less pressure to switch between its three temperatures. this has resulted in me setting it to high and then just through normal movement the button gets bumped and switches it to a lower temp. Personally I prefer having the button on the outside as it is easier to use as you do not have to unzip to adjust temp or turn it on or off. Heating OK, so I have to say there is no contest here the Milwaukee gets hotter and it gets hotter quicker. The middle temp on the Milwaukee is about what high is on the DeWalt. Material Both are lightweight, the DeWalt seems to be thicker and better material. Although Milwaukee says machine wash so... 20v vs 12v This is one of those marketing games that is nonsense. The jackets don't run at 20v they run at 12v but pitching it as a 20v product makes it sound better. Plus as I mentioned before even a slim 20v battery is huge. Size Milwaukee jackets run tight. If you layer go a size bigger. Milwaukee hoodies run just about right if you order an XL it will be what you expect. Dewalt hoodie runs tight, I'd order a size up. So what to buy? I'd get the Dewalt, however, I would not run it off a 20v battery. Order the 12v sleeve and battery or if you have M12 products as well order an M12 sleeve for the battery.

I’m 5'9" and 160 lbs, and while the large is a little baggy, I actually prefer the looser fit. A medium might have been a better choice for a more snug feel, but I wear a vest over it to help retain heat, and it works great. I’ve used this sweatshirt in negative temperatures, and it makes such a difference—especially on windy days when the cold air cuts through everything. The 2Ah battery lasts a good while, and the USB port for charging your phone is a nice bonus. The sweatshirt has 3 heat settings, and the high setting will definitely keep you toasty! Overall, it’s been a solid purchase for staying warm and comfortable in even the harshest conditions. I plan to use this snowmobiling in the backcountry and extra cold days in the resort.

Good item 2 weeks use so far seems to be fine, heats up nicely with 3 different modes led button goes from red to white when fully heated, and it’s a decent hoodie without the battery connected

The hoodie feels one size too small for an XL, box it came in had already been opened before, packaging hoodie came in was pre torn, hoodie is missing drawstrings on the hood, came coated in small dog type hairs. Tags torn off by previous purchaser. The heating elements do work well though so there is a positive there. Battery connector is hidden in a lower hidden section of box which is hard to spot when it's the almost at the full depth of the box

The coat is awesome and heats up well. The only thing I don’t like is the battery pack rests on your kidney and is a little bulky. Dewalt should come out with a battery pack that is long and thin and raps around your back side that would make wearing this hoodie unbelievable. Overall besides the battery pack. Coat is A+ and warm. The shipping was amazing and received it before I expected it. Good job

The battery required for this Dewalt heated hoddie is a DB 203 . There like hens teeth and quite expensive.

Bought for my boyfriend he loves them and have got 2 since size L fits him perfectly
