I whent surfing not long ago and had to abandon the waves after an hour because im sure i was on the brink of hypothermia

Surly im not the first person to think of a heated wet suit, the one i used was a think winter suit and i used gloves and balaclava but it wasnt enough!

A suit that has small flexible heating elements and a well insulated electrical cicuitry thats recargable battery powerd would have saved my day! Also it might be useful for deep sea divers. The batteries could be located on the thigh or back (would a few laptop batteries be enough for 2-5 hours use? im not sure how much power it would need) so there not a hinderance and the suit would have the shoes, gloves and mask built into one so connections arnt needed for these parts
