I need to change the title to "best thing since toasted bread!", I just got a burnt finger after ten mins riding at medium setting!, taking the gloves off (quickly 😄) a hot spot can be felt even on the outside of the glove and it corresponds with the affected area on my finger, nothing bad just a reddened area of skin, anyway I've emailed the seller for resolution failing that it's RST, thought I'd better mention it after singing their praises so highly.

Apologies for being an ignoramus and a Luddite (I've been honing these skills for years ....) but what is RST?
Really Sore Thumb fits in the context but I don't think it's that  :) :)

Some time ago I worked for a company that supplied to a high street chain,  we had to comply with stringent technical parameters and while visiting their test labs was shown a machine for the testing of condoms!

Didn't see any electric gloves being verified though ;)
