The short answer: which option suits you?
- You have a good winter coat and want it heated: the Øney universal jacket heater V2.0, from €69.99, with warmth on chest, stomach and back.
- You want to move the Øney to a second coat or need replacements: the Øney extra patches (8 pieces), €19.95.
- The right power bank: the Gløde 10,000 mAh power bank. Only this small power bank fits the Øney; the large 20,000 mAh one does not.
- You would rather have a complete heated coat: see our heated jackets.
- All universal options in one place: our universal solutions collection.
Comparison table: add-on heater or full heated jacket
In our research we found no European competitor with exactly the same idea: a heater you clip into almost any coat. So we compare the Øney with Lenz heat pads and with complete heated jackets. Manufacturer data; competitor prices are November 2026.
| Product | Brand | Price | Heat zones | Max. temperature | Fits |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Øney universal jacket heater V2.0 | Gløde | from €69.99 | Chest, stomach, back; front and back separate | up to 50°C | Almost any coat or gilet |
| Heat Pads (separate) | Lenz | €49.95 (price November 2026, sold out) | Velcro pads | - | Lenz Heat Vest only |

What to look for in a universal jacket heater
1. Will it fit your coat?
The Øney clips in without sewing and, according to Gløde, fits almost any coat. Fitting takes about a minute. Check there is room inside for the elements and a pocket for the power bank.
2. Which power bank fits?
This is the key point. Only the small 10,000 mAh power bank fits the Øney, not the large 20,000 mAh one. Gløde quotes 3 to 6 hours of heat for the 10,000 mAh model, depending on the setting. More on our page about how long the battery in heated clothing lasts.
3. Where does the heat go?
The Øney warms chest, stomach and back, with front and back heated separately. On a wet, windy commute the chest matters; standing still on a cold touchline it is mostly the back.
4. How warm does it get?
3 heat settings, up to 50°C, noticeable within about 60 seconds. Bertschat's full jackets state higher maximums but also cost far more.
5. Cost and flexibility
A full heated jacket easily costs over €200. The Øney heats your existing coat for a fraction of that, and with extra patches you can move it to another coat.
The options reviewed
Gløde Øney universal jacket heater V2.0: our pick
The Øney comes first because it solves a common problem: your coat fits perfectly but is not quite warm enough. Clip it in, connect the power bank and pick one of 3 settings. The heat sits on chest, stomach and back, up to 50°C. Suitable for walking, cycling, motorcycling and winter sports.
The Øney starts from €69.99. You get a 2-year warranty, a 30-day trial with money-back guarantee and delivery in 1 to 3 days. Gløde products are CE certified and protected against overheating.
Honest caveat: you are limited to the small power bank, so for a full day of outdoor work you will need a second power bank or a complete jacket.
Lenz Heat Pads
Lenz sells separate Velcro pads for €49.95 (price November 2026), but they only fit the Lenz Heat Vest and were sold out during our research. The vest itself costs €119.95 without battery. Fine if you already use Lenz, not designed for your own coat.
Bertschat women's heated jacket Dual Heating
A complete women's jacket with 10 carbon zones, up to 68°C, for €219.95 (price November 2026). With 2 power banks of 10,000 mAh, Bertschat states 3 to 8 hours. Plus: many zones and a high maximum. Minus compared with the Øney: you are buying a new jacket, and we found no washing instructions on the page.
Ororo Dual-Control jacket
A complete jacket with 5 zones including chest, for €219.99 (price November 2026). Ororo gives 3 years on the elements and 1 year on the battery. Sensible if you want a new jacket anyway.
Prefer a complete Gløde jacket?
See our heated jackets, such as the Pølar women's parka from €299.99 or the heated work jackets.

- Walkers and dog owners: long rounds in damp, raw weather.

Frequently asked questions
Does the large 20,000 mAh power bank fit the Øney?
No. Only the small 10,000 mAh power bank fits.
Do I need to cut or sew my coat?
No, the Øney clips in without sewing and takes about a minute to fit.
What are the extra patches for?
The set of 8 lets you move the Øney to another coat or replace worn patches.
Can I still wash my coat?
Take out the Øney and the power bank, then follow the care label of your own coat.
What if it is not for me?
Try it for 30 days with a money-back guarantee: 30-day trial. For warranty questions: repair and warranty.
Conclusion
If you already own a coat you like, the Øney universal jacket heater is the smartest and cheapest step: warmth on chest, stomach and back up to 50°C, no sewing. If you buy an extra power bank, always choose the 10,000 mAh one, as the large one does not fit. For maximum warmth over long days, a full heated jacket makes more sense.
