The DEWALT DCHJ060C1-L 20V/12V MAX heated jacket kit is sized Large and built for outdoor workdays in cold weather. It uses your DEWALT 20V MAX or 12V MAX battery to power four heating zones: left and right chest, mid-back, and collar. The LED controller offers three heat settings plus a pre-heat function, and a compact battery provides up to 7.5 hours of run time. The water-resistant polyester shell keeps damp conditions off your core while you stay warm.
DEWALT DCHJ060C1-L Heated Jacket: Battery Life and Heat Coverage
How long does the DCHJ060C1 last? That depends on the heat setting and battery capacity. On a low heat setting with a compact 20V MAX battery, you can expect up to 7.5 hours of run time. On high or pre-heat, run time will be shorter. Larger capacity batteries extend the time, and the jacket also works with 12V MAX batteries for flexibility. The LED controller displays the heat level and lets you switch modes quickly.
Four Heating Zones and Smart Controls
The left and right chest panels, mid-back, and collar are heated, so your core and neck stay warm instead of just your torso. The controller has a pre-heat function to warm the jacket up quickly before you start work, then you can drop to a lower setting for extended battery life.
Cold-Weather Practicality
The water-resistant polyester outer shell shrugs off light rain and snow, while the five pockets give you places for your phone, batteries, and hand tools. There's a convenient battery pocket that expands to fit bulkier battery packs, plus routing ports for the USB cable if you want to charge your phone from the battery pack.
Washing and Care Instructions for the DCHJ060C1
To clean your heated jacket, always remove the battery and controller before washing. Zip all closures and turn the jacket inside out. Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, then hang it to air dry. Do not use bleach, fabric softener, or a dryer—heat from the dryer can degrade the heating elements and wiring. Never iron the jacket or immerse the controller.
This jacket is a solid choice for framing crews, road workers, and anyone spending long hours outside in cold, damp conditions. It fits true to size in Large; if you're between sizes, sizing up makes it easier to layer over a hoodie.
