It's getting cold and I must have really crappy circulation in my hands because they always freeze in cold weather no matter what gloves I wear, and I even have pogies. I have a pair of crappy electric gloves that really don't work well so I'm thinking of getting good ones, but they're $170 with a battery pack, $100 if they plug into your 12 volt system - meant for motorcycles. So, since I have a 36 volt 15 ah battery that is more than sufficient for my commute, can I step that down to 12 volts and not harm the rest of the electronics? I already ran wires to operate a front light, but that takes variable voltage and I just run the 36 volts to the light. To go from 36 volt DC to 12 volt DC, what do I need? Should I do it or just get the ones with the battery?
