GO..I plug my jacket liner into the controller which is plugged into the plug from my battery tender jr so mine is wired directly to the bike. Honestly you could go down to zero without the heated gear (used to do it all the time) but it's much more comfortable with the electric on lol. Today at 21 degrees I ran my heated grips on 50% (100% will burn your hands I think) and my jacket liner about the same. Keeping the wind off is as important, if not more so, than the extra heat supplied by the jacket liner and grips, so a windshield or fairing is pretty important. Keeping the fingertips warm is the toughest part without heated grips. I have used mittens and mittens with heated gloves liners too. Better than regular gloves with no air protection.
