Digits - Stay Warm, Stay Connected
Don’t let the cold keep you from your connections! Digits are mini conductive pins that attach to the gloves you already love so you can use electronic touch screen devices, like smartphones and MP3 players, even when it’s below zero.
How to use Digits:
- Place the back side of the digit (with post) inside the fingertip of the glove and push through.
- Twist the other side of the digit onto the post.
- Attach digits to as many fingers on the glove(s) as desired.
Features:
- Made of conductive silicone, with a metal pin on the back for attaching to your glove.
- Color: black.
Digits come in packs of four so you can use them on multiple sets of gloves or give a set to a friend.

Works but not very durable
They work as advertised but they stick out pretty far from your glove and get caught on things during normal use of your hands to touch and grab everyday objects. As a result, I've now destroyed three out of the four dots that were included. They should be redesigned with a convex outer piece and a concave inner piece to hug the shape of the finger and the glove more naturally. In response to Mikhail's complaint about them being cold that's expected behavior. If they were to be covered with cloth they would no longer work.
Good Concept But Design Could Be Better
The little pads work as expected but the design makes the usage limited and makes it difficult to use your hands for anything else. The pins that attach the pads to the backing are too short to use on thick gloves e.g. leather. And the bulkiness of the pads makes it difficult to do anything else with out the pads unscrewing from the backing and falling off (e.g. tie a shoe, reach into your purse for pair of keys, etc) I like the concept and the product but think the design needs to be refined. Note to inventor: please reissue with longer pins and thinner pads.
Terrible Don't buy!
I attached one to my index finger of a pair of thin weight knit gloves, and after wearing it for 5 minutes it fell off and I lost it. I then took another one and made sure that is was screwed on as tightly as possible, again after 5 minutes it fell of and I lost it. I never even had a chance to use it. Additionally, the piece of metal on the inside is very uncomfortable, if they coated it with a soft piece of felt that might help it feel a little more comfortable.
