2026 Season Note: Due to high consumer demand Helite is working hard to keep up with production on vests and refill canisters. Because of this, when you order your Helite product, we cannot guarantee that the vests or canisters will be in stock at our HQ. In regards to vests specifically, in most cases we receive vest orders from Helite within the 60 day window it takes to get your Bison suit produced, so this should not affect you. If there is an unforeseen delay, we will do our best to keep you abreast of timelines and updates from the manufacturer. If you have any questions or would like the latest status update for please don't hesitate to contact us via email, phone or chat here on the website.  

Helite's all-new integrated electronic vest represents the best all-around air vest on the market. A low-profile bladder integrates behind the liner of your AirHide suit and attaches directly to the outer shell, while the gas cartridge and "brain" fit right inside the hollow speed hump on the back of the suit. For added convenience, add the Helite Vest Remote (sold separately) which allows the vest to be activated via the rubber button on top of the speed hump!

If you're looking for the least-intrusive, lightest, most convenient electronic vest... this is it! As a huge added bonus, the Helite E-Vest can be recharged trackside in minutes by simply pressing a button and installing a new Helite E-Vest cartridge (which includes an integrated firing pin)! No need to ship it out and wait.

For years the industry has grappled with bulky electronic vests requiring painful repacking fees and processes. In our eyes, Helite has brought to market the first no-nonsense electronic air vest. We are proud to offer AirHide "Powered by Helite" suits factory-equipped with the Helite Integrated E-Vest!

Additional notes: Your size may not be in stock if you select the "To Be Determined" Based on Measurements option. Helite Integrated Electronic Vests not in stock can typically be received by the time your suit is ready but we cannot guarantee the vest delivery date. Separate shipping will be charged if the vest needs to be shipped separately.

Can I bring my HELITE product on the plane?

Yes legally, you can take your airbag with CO2 cartridge on a plane in a checked bag. The CO2 cartridge is considered non-flammable dangerous goods. Airlines can confiscate your cartridge for no reason. To increase the chances that your cartridges arrive safely we advise you to download and print the form for traveling with dangerous goods and leave them near the cartridges and the airbag.

We also advise you to leave the cartridge screwed into the airbag and keep additional cartridges close to the vest to help the authorities to understand what they will be used for.
