crusian Posted July 6, 2020 Report Posted July 6, 2020 Hi Fellas I'm starting to do more nights without any front on my Trakker Tempest Brolly , but I find it a bit chilly . Can anyone recommend a good sleeping bag / sleep system please ? . 😃 Quote
salokcinnodrog Posted July 6, 2020 Report Posted July 6, 2020 I am using the Wychwood Morpheus 4 sleeping bag, but I do find it a bit warm in summer, sleeping in t-shirt and combat trousers, so I often just end up sleeping under a bedchair cover. In winter though, it is good down to -5, so with the cover I stay warm. They now do a Morpheus 7 I think it is. Another couple of alternatives are the Gardner Crash bag or the Rod Hutchinson All Season, although you are looking at £60 vs £120 https://gardnertackle.co.uk/product/camo-crash-bag/ https://rodhutchinson.co.uk/product/all-season-sleeping-bag/ crusian 1 Quote

Carpmaster Posted July 7, 2020 Report Posted July 7, 2020 I bought an ex army 5 seasons sleeping bag from army an navy store about 20yrs ago it's still as good today as it was when I bought it, it kept me snug an warm when we had the beast from the east plus I only paid 40quid bonus crusian 1 Quote

Think it's because the 5 season bag is mainly all flecced inner under the duvet part and is also quite thick. B B and salokcinnodrog 2 Quote

elmoputney Posted July 7, 2020 Report Posted July 7, 2020 I would recommend mine as its a 3/5 season and probably an ideal bag as it has a removable inner for summer but....... They have stopped making it so I can't sorry 😁 Quote
bluelabel Posted July 7, 2020 Report Posted July 7, 2020 I was in my Nash scope brolly with an Abode overwrap, my bag is a Nash Frostbite sub zero fitted on a Wideboy... it wasn't cold, but there was a chill wind I was toasty... not the cheapest bag but the dual top layer is very versatile ... and crusian 2 Quote

Expand I haven't actually got a bed , Framey , I use a camp bed ( which decided to creak every time I moved last time out ) , but I would probably go for a compact for weight , and I'm only about 5ft. 8" . I could probably go to about £100 , Yonny , if I had the bag delivered to work so my Wife didn't find out - I'm not a d.i.y. expert like Highy 😁 B B 1 Quote
