Electrical Insulated Rubber Gloves Electrician 12KV High Voltage Safety Protective Work Gloves Insulating for Lineman Man Woman

Used it to remove and work on Prius battery. The gloves are nice and thick and I felt well protected from the 300 volts that may potentially come from the battery. These gloves are thick and do not expect a lot of comfort from them. They are not a perfect fit but for me using it only for a few minutes, the price is right. I wore leather gloves over them because I read that it gives you more protection in the event that these rip and exposes skin to electrical current. Others complained of a smell but it did not bother me, yes you can smell the rubber but it is only a tad more than rubber kitchen gloves.

Very good product and new

Bought these for a fairly high voltage hobby project I am working on. I could have somehow gotten a less smelly pair, but the gloves don't smell nearly as bad (at least to me) as other commenters are saying. They smell like a rubber inner tube for a bike, or like a car tire, exactly what you would expect to smell from a rubber product, and no stronger of an odor in my case. They are also not as bulky as I have seen comments saying. They certainly aren't delicate, but I would say for comparison, more delicate than a leather glove, and significantly less stiff. I also had no problems fitting the gloves on my hands. They are rather spacious for me, but I wouldn't say I have large hands, so it could be an issue for others. Would be a good idea to use leather gloves over them if you are dealing with anything that might tear them. They are about 2mm thick at the hem, but taper down a little, so I would say they are between 1 and 2 mm thick. Mine arrived undamaged without any little holes or tears. I can't say anything as to what levels of electricity they can actually protect against, use them at your own risk obviously.

It was a Christmas gift an my son in-law seemed very excited about getting it

I generally don't write reviews, and I try to be fair to the seller. In this case, I was able to return these gloves. So, quick feedback. I absolutely think these had enough insulative value to prevent accidents if working on something at home. That's the good part of them. The hard part is that they really didn't fit well. To be fair, I have a small hand. If you think of the smallest gloves or small/medium, that's my size. It's hard to make a product of this type of material and fit everyone. The only other thing I'd say is that they had a strong smell. If they had fit, I might have kept them for that odd job though. I hope I can find an alternative. I gave these a try, and I'm in no way saying they wouldn't work for some. I am sure they would.

I haven't used them yet and when I do I'll be using insulated tools (extra insurance). They feel very thick and sturdy. Probably not to the Pro level but I'll only use them a couple of times.

I bought these gloves just as an extra safety measure when working with a generator cut-over panel for my well. Because of the nature of how the electrician had to wire things, there's a small but real possibility that if I did something really stupid, my hand would touch live 220v power. So I keep these 12,000v-rated gloves at the generator changeover location and when I need to run the well on the generator, I use these gloves for extra caution. VERY well made, comfortable, and provide plenty of dexterity

Could not get my hands in the gloved. You have to have small hands to use these gloves. No optional sizes.
