Technical Instructions

AC Plug / 3 Heat Setting Controller
The AC plug has a timing based 3 Heat Settling Controller for warming boots. The settings adjust the wattage and time to generate a range of warming not to exceed 140F/60C. The AC plug is connected by an 80" / 203cm cord and for use indoors only.

Controller Setting Guidance:

H (160W) - For use between 1-3 hours.
M (120W) - For use between 3-6 hours.
L (80W) - For use between 6-8 hours.

Note: The L, M & H settings are for adjusting the time it takes to achieve the optimal temperature range. To conserve energy and prolong the life of the heating system it's advisable to use the L setting for long warming durations (e.g. overnight) and to use the M or H settings only for shorter warming durations.

Note: The guidance above is subject to surrounding room temperatures and the temperature at which boots are before heating. Do not heat for longer than 8 hours.
We do not recommend leaving this on overnight as it is not designed to be used for that long consecutively.

DC Plug
The DC plug is for keeping pre-warmed boots warm during automobile transit. Upon arrival at the ski destination, turn-off the automobile and unplug the bag. The 12V DC plug is 90W (Draws 7.5 Amps) and connected by a 65" / 165cm cord and for use within automobiles only.

WARNING: Use of the DC plug while the motor is not running may deplete the automobile's battery. To reduce the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning do not use the DC plug while the automobile is stationary.

Use and Care Instructions

Check that the heated pads, sleeves and cords are properly attached to the bag.
Remove snow and moisture from the outer shell of ski boots and place one boot in each side boot pocket with toes pointing toward the front of the bag.
Zip boot pockets closed; boot pockets may remain slightly unzipped for ventilation.
Remove any items that may be sensitive to heat, such as goggles, helmet or leather.
To warm boots insert AC plug into 120V wall outlet and select designed setting.
To keep ski boots warm during transit insert DC plug into 12V automobile outlet.
The heating system is for use only within the Kulkea designated and approved bag and for purposes of warming alpine ski boots and apparel.
To clean, unplug the bag and allow it to completely cool before hand spot cleaning.
If wet, allow the bag to ventilate; never put in an electric dryer or use a hand dryer.
Store the bag in a cool dark and dry place when not in use.

Note: For boots, gear or apparel that may be temperature sensitive, consult the item manufacturer before warming.

Note: This product has been tested and approved for use only in the United States and with standard AC and DC plugs. It has not been tested or approved for use outside of the US or with any adapter or converter.

Caution: The pack is used for carrying heavy alpine ski gear. Skiing, ski gear and winter conditions are inherently dangerous, and caution must be taken at all times when using this product. Never use this product improperly, too close to property or other people. This pack is designed for use by adults.

Helmet Sling

How to Use: Remove the sling from its zippered pocket located on the front of the bag and attach it to the two surface mounted buckles on the top of the bag. Slide the helmet into the sling with the front of the helmet pointing downwards. Adjust the helmet sling straps to secure the helmet against the bag. Do not use the Helmet Sling with airline baggage check carriage.

Precautions

Cleaning: Kulkea bags may be cleaned by hand as needed with warm soapy water and followed by air drying in a warm, dry environment. Do not use alcohol or other cleaning solutions. Do not machine wash or dry.

Storage: Kulkea bags should be stored in a warm, dry environment free of mold and mildew.

Airline Baggage Check Precautions:

Do not leave straps hanging from the bag when placing it with airline baggage check.

Heated boot bag

Published by Anon on 15th Mar 2019

This bag carries just the items I need for a day of skiing. Best part is ability to plug bag into a DC outlet in car so boots are heated when I arrive at resort to ski. That is critical since I have titanium screws in my great toe so boot needs to be flexible to open up for my foot. This bag is just what I needed.

Thermal trekker is the best gear bag I’ve ever owned

Published by Brad in Sun Valley on 15th Mar 2018

As a point of reference, I’ve been in and around the Ski Industry for about 50 years. As a Retailer, Factory Rep, Athlete, Bio Mechanic, and Custom Boot Fitter. I ski in a race boot, and without a warm shell they are nearly impossible to get on. In the past I’d have to pre warm the shell via boot oven or heat gun in order to easily boot up. But ! Since getting this amazing bag, I spend a lot less time dealing with such things. I simply Pre Pack and turn my bag on well before heading to the mountain, walk in sit down and boot up in minutes, warm soft shells are “butter” to slide on. Simply Said, My Thermal trekker is the best gear bag I’ve ever owned. It’s stable and reliable with regards to heat which is critical as I Ski in a Fischer Vacuum Boot. I also have nerve damage from frost bite in my toes and fingers, and being able to start warm in both extremities is a game changer here in Idaho where we have morning temps near zero often. I can carry everything I need for the day in one bag, boot up quickly and warm. Woo Hoo !

Awesome Bag!

Published by Greg Ralph on 21st Dec 2017

This is the best boot bag Ive ever had, it holds everything and keeps the boots toasty. I can carry all of my gear to the mountain in one bag comfortably. Being able to plug it in the wall and a car lighter means I arrive at the mountain with warm boots that are mush easier to put on. Just an Awesome Bag!

This Bag is Toasty

Published by Eric J on 13th Dec 2017

Never thought Id use a heated bag, but after gearing up last weekend, I will never go back to a non-heated bag! My boots were warm and easier to put on and my jacket gloves and stuff were warm too. Great bag and construction looks super sturdy.

Best heated bag...others not even close!

Published by Charlie with warm boots! on 20th Nov 2017

Got my heated bag as a gift and felt compelled to share my thoughts. Ive used other heated bags in the past and my biggest grip was that once I put my boots in there wasn't much room for anything else other than to jam in my other gear and, my clothes got wet and dirty from my boots. Enter the Thermal Trekker: Individual boot pockets on the side, heats up quick, has pockets for all my other gear and stores my helmet on the outside! All fits in and comfy backpack set up to make it easy to carry. Clearly a better design and product.
