The Downlight range from Lifeventure contains some of the lightest Down-filled sleeping bags available regarding warmth to weight ratio. Containing 90% duck-down, they have a tapered mummy fit reducing the amount of dead space meaning you use less energy to stay warm and help you get a comfortable night’s sleep.
To help with moisture management Lifeventure have constructed this bag with a breathable light weight micro-polyester internal lining. The outer is made from lightweight ripstop nylon with a handy external front pocket and 2 internal security pockets to hide your phone and wallet should anyone try to rob you.
As a little bonus Lifeventure have kindly impregnated these bags with their EX3 triple layer treatment. What is EX3 you ask? EX3 is a fabric treatment that helps to prevent the build-up of odours caused by bacteria, which is useful if showers are few and far between; it repels those annoying mosquitos and protects you against the threat of bed bugs.
Temperature ratings are used to indicate a bags performance but are subjective and can be hugely affected by many factors such as your health and metabolism, how much you have had to eat or drink, how active you have been, humidity and altitude, the type of shelter used and whether you are using a suitable insulating mat. Your sleeping bag is only as good as the mat that’s beneath it, for our recommendations see the related products at the bottom of the page.
The "Comfort" rating indicates the range at which a woman gets a full night’s sleep, the "Limit of Comfort" rating indicates the range at which a man gets a full night’s sleep and the "Extreme" rating indicates a range at which a woman is protected from hypothermia. The Extreme rating is basically a survival rating and it is not advisable to rely on this for general use.
Complete with its waterproof compression stuff sack this bag is a great little travel companion or adventure racing buddy!
