Hey Jack, lLet me know how that works out in a wet suit. Bill

Do any of these vests work in a wetsuit? I'd be interested too if there were good, safe options. My last dive in these here parts was 24mins in 51 degree water and I was near the popsicle stage when I surfaced. Unfortunately dry suits aren't an option where I dive.

No, none of these is designed to be operated submerged, but Thermalution makes a heating system for wetsuits. I don't know anything about it except that it exists.
I have a Santi vest, and I absolutely love it. I can't imagine using it in water much warmer than Puget Sound, though -- it throws a TON of heat!
I will also chime in and say the santi vest is very poorly designed with that crotch strap. it's worthless and makes the p valve a nightmare to hook up.
but it's very warm
I saw a video about that Thermalution device. The guy was swimming around in 40 degree water for 15 minutes, and was warm when he got out.
Been using a Gerbing vest several years in Missouri springs. Works very good.
I've been very satisfied with the Golem vest and battery pack combo.
Check out this link here. The UTD system DOES work with wetsuits. http://www.utdequipment.com/new/page...ies/solar.html
