I need recommendations on the best heated socks for long rides

Has anyone had good luck with the best heated socks? I'm looking for something that heats the toes well without wiring. I've tried disposable heat packs but still had cold toes after 8-hour rides in 30-degree temps
 
I used battery powered socks for a couple of years, and theyve definitely improved. My new ones use carbon elements, which are better integrated than the older wire style. I usually keep the heat on low or medium, and my feet stay warm all day.. The newer batterys last longer too. Just watch out for socks that don't include batteries or need AA batteries that can get expensive. Also one size fits all isnt always accurate, so check the sizing. Overall, theyre great for long rides if you keep the heat lower.

Yeah those carbon element socks sound good so I'll keep an eye on the battery type and sizing, I gotta keep the toes toasty for those long rides

Yeah, same boat here, I've tried a few so called best heated socks and most either had bulky wires or just didn't keep my toes warm enough and even with battery powered ones, I end up layering or giving up halfway through the day
I'll definitely try out what @ne0 said
 
A while back a few people recommended Lenz Heat Socks and it's the best decision I ever made. I'm not a massive fan of these kinds of things, but they can be a toesaver especially if you're riding in colder weather.
