    I have a heated sleeping pad, a heated blanket, a heated jacket and an electronic hand warmer.
    The things they all have in common is they are bulky and made of cheap material. Worst of all is they have a tendency to over heat and turn off automatically.
    Numerous times I've woken up because of either overheating or freezing.
    Your better off buying good quality insulated products rated for the appropriate temperature conditions. Then you wont have to worry about batteries running out either.
    I hope this product is a game changer.

    Here in Canada if you are too warm while you are winter camping you sweat in your sleep, which can cause severe issues and death. We just use a normal sleeping blanket and boxers even in -40, however this WOULD be nice to wake up in on those cold winter mornings for sure.

      @@harryarteza3435 If you wear pyjamas or layers of clothing you will freeze overnight yes, due to sweating :) But if you wear boxers and just a bag its SUPER warm, everything except for your head thats sticking out lol. Its actually really nice but this year I upgraded to a hot tent so I have a stove in there with me now :D

      @@gundamgunpla4685 Crazy - I would never have thought this. My mind thinks more layers the better, sweat or no sweat. I will try this one evening! Thanks for the info
      And - I think a thermal hat is key :)
      Hot tent sounds cool though - I have a Mr Buddy heater in my tent in the UK and a big 6kg gas tank, lasts 3 days.

      @IdiotDoing  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi. If it’s a normal camping bed. I would have thought so. My bed is quite big, that’s why I got he XL size. Guessing you don’t have to put the flaps over the end of the beds if you don’t want too. Think sizes are on the website just compare sizes with your camp bed sizes. Hope this helps 🙂
