My wife bought the women's version of this jacket a couple of years ago. https://mobilewarming.com/men-s/jackets/...t-12v.html
It's from Mobile Warming, some of whose products are sold at The Warming Store (see Stichill's recommendation). It can run on battery or 12v. If I recall, the sleeve heating elements do not activate when plugged to the battery. My wife loves this jacket. In fact, she wore it to work today because it's a little chilly here.
I was originally looking for a 12v heated vest liner for on my bike and a waterproof, fleece-lined shell (ie Northface jacket) because I don't have a mid-weight winter jacket. I tend to like multi-tasking gadgets and gear, so I am now considering the Mobile Warming dual-power jacket for myself. It's a little pricey, but I'm getting two jackets in one (three, if I can golf in it) or their dual-powered vest. Thanks, Stichill, for posting about The Warming Store which got me thinking about multi-tasking apparel...very helpful.
Addendum -- I won't be getting the vest because I cannot connect gloves to it...well, maybe I could connect gloves to the integrated hookup for pants, but that seems cumbersome. Also, all of this assumes that I can plug in any glove with a compatible connector, which I think is true.
