FAQs
What safety standards does this body warmer meet?
The Pulsar Interactive Body Warmer meets EN ISO 20471 Class 2 and RIS-3279 (Rail Standard) for high visibility clothing.
Can I wear this in the rain?
The fabric is 300 Denier breathable PU coated Polyester, which offers protection against light rain and wind. It is not a fully waterproof garment.
How do I convert it from a body warmer to a jacket?
The sleeves are detachable via zippers. Simply unzip them to convert the garment into a gilet.
What is the purpose of the anchorage fastening points?
These points at the cuffs and neck are designed for attaching compatible Pulsar interactive outer garments, allowing for a layered clothing system.
How should I clean the body warmer?
It can be machine washed at 40 degrees with similar colours. Avoid tumble drying, dry cleaning, bleaching, and fabric softeners.
What is the difference between the high-vis side and the grey side?
The high-vis side is the primary safety-oriented exterior with reflective tape. The grey side is a soft-touch microfibre lining for added warmth and comfort when reversed.
Is there a pocket for a mobile phone?
Yes, there is a sports-style waterproof zip pocket on the right chest, ideal for storing a mobile phone.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear. You can use a graphite pencil or a wax-based lubricant on the zipper teeth for smoother operation. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Reflective tape is peeling or damaged.
Avoid harsh washing or drying methods. If minor peeling occurs, carefully try to adhere it with a warm iron (use a cloth barrier). For significant damage, the garment's reflective rating may be compromised and should be retired.
Garment feels less breathable after washing.
Ensure you are following the recommended washing instructions. Avoid fabric softeners, which can clog the pores of the PU coating. Air dry thoroughly.
Detachable sleeves are hard to zip off/on.
Ensure the zipper teeth are clean and free from debris. Gently align the zippers before attempting to zip. A small amount of zipper lubricant can help.
