I wonder if periodic short term exposure to risk can decrease your longterm risk of accidents. I hope it does..

My instructor has one that he uses in the local quarry. He loves it! He built it himeself. It is basically a motorcycle heated vest. He found a dry port (plug ins on both sides of his drysuit) to pass the battery power through the suit. The most expensive piece was the Light Monkey can light battery itself. I think he probably spent about $400- $500 on it all.
I dont want an alternative, im not going to drag my dry suite to the Galapagos and im not going to Magiver up some duct tape,a motorcycle vest and some glue.
IF you have some first hand experience with one of these please post your thoughts, other wise thanks but no thanks.

Not sure I would trust those wetsuit heaters. specifically question Burn Time.
Although the motorcycle vests are cheap, they have not been working great. UTD (motorcycle vest) didn't even have them in their booth at DEMA and product is no longer on their website.
