ActionHeat Women's 5V Heated Puffer Jacket vs Ororo Women's Heated Dual Control Jacket

The Ororo is the better jacket for most shoppers. It has five heating zones split into two independently controlled systems, so you can heat your arms and core separately, and it runs on a higher-voltage battery. The ActionHeat is a simpler three-panel puffer with a detachable hood and longer run times on low. Ororo owners rate it 4.8 out of 5 across 282 ratings and praise the heated arms, wind blocking and warmth in cold snaps. The ActionHeat is lighter on features and has no published rating, so the Ororo is the safer pick unless you want a puffer cut.

• Choose the ActionHeat if you want a puffer-style jacket with a detachable hood and long low-heat run time, and you don't need heated arms.
• Choose the Ororo if you want heated arms, separate core and arm controls, and a water- and wind-resistant shell with a strong owner rating.
