Good and honest review of your kit. Glad you touched on the mental health benefits of being out in the wilds. It helps to realise its okay not to be okay
Re your sleeping pad deflating slightly overnight: cold air takes up less volume than warm air so has lower pressure, so as the ambient temperature lowers over night, the air in the mat cools and the pressure decreases. This'll be amplified if your blowing it up with yer lungs, and the colder the ambient temperature is. Think I remember hearing the exped pump sack works on that mat? I use a flextail tinypump on 2 to 3 nighters now, to avoid breathing into my mat. Other way is to just give it an extra bit of air just before you sleep.
@@ryanhuntermedia it's ludicrously comfortable that mat int it, it's one of the most comfortable things I've kipped on ever, let alone in a tent. One of the cheapo highlander reflective mats is good to add a bit of r value btw, they're abou 5 or 10 quid on Amazon. I put mine on top of the air mat rather than under it though.

Nice set up buddy, well done on your new milestone 200 subs. Yep we all need to talk👍
Thank you buddy, appreciate the comment. All the best, Ryan
I’d suggest using some Sugru to mould round the handles of your mug and also to make a lip guard. Unless you have asbestos lips of course!
That’s a great shout mate, thanks for the tip!
Hi Ryan , just found your channel !🙂,
Very useful video thanks
Good video but when doing a video like this make sure to provide links for viewers to easily buy.
You seem quite honest with your reviews but I would love to give you some input in private and hopefully get into the same area
