“I’ve been genuinely impressed with the Ororo Mini 5K battery. One of the first things I noticed was how compact and lightweight it is. When it’s in the pocket of the heated vest, I honestly forget it’s there—which is exactly what I want when I’m moving around or layering up in cold weather.
Battery life has been solid for my needs. On medium heat, it easily lasts through several hours outside, whether I’m working, walking, or just spending time outdoors in colder temperatures. I like that it doesn’t force me to choose between warmth and bulk; the Mini 5K strikes a great balance between size and performance.
Another big plus is how quickly it powers up the vest and maintains consistent heat. There’s no sudden drop-off or uneven warmth, which makes a huge difference when the temperature really dips. Charging is straightforward, and I appreciate that it doubles as a small power bank if I need to top off my phone in a pinch.
Overall, the Ororo Mini 5K battery feels thoughtfully designed for real-world use. It’s reliable, unobtrusive, and does exactly what it’s supposed to do. If you want dependable warmth without carrying around a bulky battery, this one is absolutely worth it.”
“I have the Ororowear heated vest and I am planning to purchase the jacket. This battery is a spare for
the one I have for the vest. I ride my horse in the winter and this vest is a game changer! I can use it
for barn work, too.”

“I like the slim and low profile version. I have seen other brands with very bulky and heavy battery.
My only suggestion would be is to have the battery access right by the pocket but in the inside lining of the jacket so it will be accessible without having to take jacket or sleeve out . Just like the older version of the winter jacket.”
