Power bank not included. Or sleeves (why is this called a "jacket"?)

Maybe similarly used term as with a life jacket

Have you tried press and hold the button for 3 seconds? Got a different brand but thought mine was dead too when pressing the button does nothing.

I got one of these last week, when they were the fleece ones from LifeBee for the same price ($29-30). It was a surprise Valentines gift for my wife, who is always cold. She grabbed the package off the porch and opened it because she thought it was something else, and the surprise was shot.

Anyway, she likes it a lot, and has been wearing it near constantly since then. Been rotating thru various 1 cell and 2 cell power banks. I couldn't imagine using this with a 10Ah bank which weighs a few pounds, all that weight in one pocket. the 3-4Ah banks (2 cells) last several hours on medium or low and is not too bulky to lug around.

Hope it lasts. Will be very careful with it when washing.

Size was between true and slightly smaller than expected, but again this was the fleece version.

We can barely trust these companies to make cell phone chargers that don't catch fire and we are going to wrap our bodies in resistive heaters covered by a layer of cheap, flammable, melting fabric? Hard pass.

I was helping they long distance. Went over those instructions and neither of my folks had any luck. Ended up replacing it with a different model, which reportedly works great. ( Wasn't a "slickdeal")

I also got the fleece version- They were out of the XXL which is the size I usually wear (I like loose clothing), though I am probably more of an XL. I ordered the 3XL, which seems more like an XL to me. In any case, it works, but is a bit wonky. The zipper was installed so that the zipper stays on the opposite size from normal- no biggie but a bit clunky to zip. I mostly wanted it because the pictures look like the heating sections on the front would be in the pockets to keep my hands warm. They are sort of in the general area of the pockets, but not as close as I had hoped. Overall, worth the $30 for an experiment in heated vests IMO.
