Damned right! If you're in the market, I'd suggest getting one that has fully variable temps and a battery pack. It works when you get off the snowmobile and you can plug it right into the snowmobile when you're riding. You'll want the fully adjustable thermostat, because they actually can make it too hot and it sucks once you start sweating. Your helmet can then just plug into your suit, so you're good to go.

That's almost like cheating.

Almost, except it's awesome. It even encourages longer rides and wearing my safety equipment.
When I bought my first one, it was just a heated helmet and it was ungodly expensive. The prices have dropped a great deal, so now I have five heated suits and six heated helmets.
It'd probably help if I explained that I often have guests. I don't actually wear those all myself.
I even have a bunch of pairs of snowshoes, just in case. I've got them from children's size to like 350 pound max weight size. I even have some cross country skis! Though I don't have many pairs of boots.
I'm a bit slow right now, due to the smashed femur, but I still have two extra people living here and three additional guests. That's just my son who's still visiting and his lady friend and his best friend from high school. It's not unusual for me to have a half dozen people here. It's beautiful here.
