Milwaukee® M12™ Realtree Xtra® Camo 3-in-1 Heated Jacket
COLUMBUS, Georgia – The first customizable heated jacket system designed for the outdoorsman, the Milwaukee® M12™ Cordless Realtree Xtra® Camo 3-in-1 Heated Jacket sets a new standard in cold-weather performance and versatility.
Worn separately as a base layer or attached to the outer shell and zip-off hood, the heated vest integrates (5) carbon fiber heating elements and advanced fabric-layering technology to distribute and maintain heat across core body areas. The rugged wind- and water-resistant Realtree Xtra camo shell features special noise-reducing fabric to withstand the harshest outdoor conditions. Made out of the same weather-resistant material, a removable hood helps keep heat in and provides additional protection against the elements when added to the shell.
Utilizing M12™ REDLITHIUM™ Battery technology, the Milwaukee® M12™ 3-in-1 Camo Heated Jacket provides up to six hours of continuous heat per battery charge to keep you in the woods for longer. For added versatility, two distinct heat zones (back and chest, lower pockets) can be adjusted independently to provide the right amount of heat for any situation. The M12™ Battery holder is stored in a sleek back pocket that can expand to fit M12™ XC Batteries and all M18™ Batteries with additional M18™ USB Charger accessory. It also includes a fuel gauge to check your battery life and built-in USB port for charging portable electronic devices. All pieces are washer and dryer safe.
