GB_Amateur 554 Posted October 29, 2017 I'm sure many of you detect in colder weather than I've been in the last couple days (38F = 3C). I can keep everything warm but my fingers. Even with gloves (one on my detecting hand and two on my digging hand) I can't keep my fingers warm. My detecting hand has a fairly thin (mechanic's) glove so I can handle the controls. Both hands have been dry so that isn't the problem. Any advice appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jennifer Posted October 30, 2017 I know cold weather detecting is a lot more fun than cold weather high banking.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sjmpainter 197 Posted October 31, 2017 If your cold try some buffalo wool gloves. They will keep you warm and still give good dexterity. https://thebuffalowoolco.com/collections/bison-apparel/gloves 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnedoe 451 Posted October 31, 2017 Wow... 95 bucks for a pair of fuzzy gloves..... I think I will just keep using "thinsulate" gloves for about 15 bucks... light , durable and many styles to choose from. And for the hot hands .... Here is a couple reusable versions.

rod-pa 52 Posted October 31, 2017 you could always just short out a 9v battery for a minute in your hand for a quick warm up....did that once by accident in my pant pocket...never again will make that mistake. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patrick in Havasu 8 Posted October 31, 2017 They also make battery powered heated gloves 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Herschbach 12,883 Posted October 31, 2017 Yeah, I always wondered about battery heated gloves. Might be just the ticket. Rechargeable and good for several hours. If you just used the detector hand the battery from the other glove could be used as backup for extra hours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
