Hi I have tried both the Daytona and Oxford grips. The Daytona has a nicer and more compact switch assy than the Oxford one which is a bit big and bulky. However the Oxford grips put out much more heat and Ive even had to turn them off occasionally as they were too hot! not something I could ever say about the Daytonas. Terry

Sorry guys, I realised, I never updated what I got...

I ended up getting the oxford ones and they're absolutely great!!!

I love the variable heat since depending on the day, I do have to adjust it (usually about half way on cold days...) infact in a couple of rides I've done on really cold days (read hail stones and the whole deal) I've had to turn it all the way to full, and then I was wondering if it was working peoperly (since it didn't seem all that hot with my gloves on... usually it's quite hot at half way..) of course, that was until I tried to ride for 2 minutes without it.... (read freezing hands within the minute of turning it off...)

So if anyone's interested I'd recommend the oxford ones! (unless someone else puts one out with variable heat as well... the switch IS very bulky and the grips were fairly hard to put on...
