Great video👌👍Was really good to see big Dean Macey, miss him from the fishing progs on tv, where are you big man? Anyway I've got a Tempest Aquatex 150 with the skull wrap and inner capsule. What an amazing piece of kit. My only gripe is the price, although so far (1yr on) it has justified the exact cost. If it can keep this up for another 3/4years Then I will consider another.
such a Great explanation Gaz. All what we need to know about all details 👏👏👏 well done. I'm impressed. And I'm looking forward to see more reviews about Trakker products.
I really like the brolly i would like to invest in a new dpm one, i keep reading reviews though about crap elastic and poles breaking easier than they should, sort these issues out and i definatley want a 100 brolly, its a lot of money to spend on something that people say breaks easily
You guys should make an inner capsule for the tempest brolly 100. I just bought one but would love the have an Inner capsule to keep those bugs and snakes that try to creep inside while you are sleeping 😣
Gaz Hood I’ll be honest I switched from my v2 brolly because I’m 6ft 4 and just wanted the extra height so got a xl hide but this new range is switching me back 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Just wondering I've just purchased a 200 and waiting delivery, as im only 5ft 5 will i have trouble putting it up? Are you making a mozie front for it aswell? Cheers
Just brought the 100t & waiting for delivery, does it come with quickstiks/stormpoles for front infill panel or do i need to buy them when i buy infill panel? Cheers
Awesome video Gaz! I have a question about the tempest advanced 150 bivvy. Mine is ordered already, with the skull cap and the inner dome, but Is it compatible with the utility fronts? or will there be any utility fronts for the advanced 150? thank you
Should be nice to know, I would actually have the same question , just related to the advanced 100 bivy, since I bought it before the new models hab been anounced...
Hi, at present there are no plans to bring out Utility Fronts especially for the new Advanced models, however, the Utility Front for the Tempest V2 Bivvy System will fit the Tempest Advanced 100 Bivvy. Unfortunately, as the Tempest Advanced 150 Bivvy is taller than the old Tempest XL Bivvy System, the old Utility Front designed for the XL won't fit the Advanced 150. Hope that helps, Gaz.
Trakker Products the states heights for the 150 advanced and the tempest Xl state they are the same height just 5cm deeper and 5cm less wide is this the case
Hello Trakker Time. In my humble opinion. The perfect size for a tent. 135H x 235D x 250W ??? Look for a compromise between 100 and 150 I think the ideal dimension would be. 150H 250D 260W. to TEMPEST ADVANCED 100 BIVVY add 10cm and brick success. Best wishes.
So when will the advanced 100 ever be available to buy iv been trying to get one for a year there consistently sold out due to stock - manufacturing issues might have to go aqua or Nash as these seem slightly more available 😢
@@abazza9918 Hi Baz no I didn't get round to it as my shoulder operation is coming through any week now. I'll have another look when Ive had my op and fully recovered.
Hi, looking at the dimensions the advanced 100 is much smaller that the V2 bivvy and the 150 is much bigger. Looking at the dimensions with the inner capsule the advanced 100 will be smaller internally than the v2 brolly. To me the v2 bivvy looks the best option still dimensionally (v2 brolly user ATM) am I correct in what I’m reading before I look to buy one
Did I miss the part where Gaz covers the difference in the weight of each bivvy? What do they weigh exactly? Surely this would be good information. Another point - can the inner capsule be left in place when closing the bivvy down? I don't recall this being clarified.
Hi Harry, exact weights for each shelter can be found on the product page of the website for each one. Regarding leaving the Inner Capsule inside the shelter for pack-down, this can be achieved, although it does take some practice to get it all packed down neatly, given all of the extra material you are folding into the shelter.
Hi Chuck, take a look at our Tempest Brolly 100T. It has our most compact footprint, on-par with that of the Tempest Brolly 100. Unfortunately though, it doesn't have the option for a full inner capsule, but you can add a groundsheet and insect panel at the front to keep most creep-crawlies out. Other than that, you could take a look at the Tempest 150 Bivvy Aquatexx EV - this has a larger footprint, but DOES have the option to fit an inner capsule. Hope that helps? Team Trakker
Hi Stefan, the Skull Cap for the Tempest advanced 100 Bivvy will fit your Tempest V2, however, as yet we have not produced a wrap for the newer models, but there's a good chance you'll still be able to pick up one of the old Tempest V2 Bivvy System Wraps if you shop around at stockists.
terry weedon there are loads of shots of the 200 throughout the video, but if you want to see it on its own in more detail, there’s a dedicated video on here too 👍🏼
cant see why on the advanced versions the skull cap is a extra should be free paying that kinda money i mean it's the price of a winter skin or normal bivvy yet it's just small top section,im tempted to buy the advanced 150 but having to pay extra for the skull cap just for a peak on the door is putting me off also it looks like you cant even get a skull cap for the 150 in the uk at all at the moment ffs
Keep your hands still mate, you are not in a martial arts movie!! Bit disappointed with trakker as many things such as heavy duty groundsheet and rain door come included in many other bivvies. Trakker prices are not cheap so making us pay extra for essentials is a bit off.
Hi Nigel, those are both regular, full-sized beds - RLX Flat-6 Superlight Beds to be precise - it's just the sheer size of the Tempest 200 that makes them look small!
So the 100t is the footprint as the brolly (v2) and the advanced brolly, why do websites advertise it as the same footprint as the advanced 100, will the 100t defiantly fit my brolly v2 groundsheet?
@@gazhood9142 Cheers mate, this is where its confusing: Angling direct for the 100t Dimensions: 150H x 235D x 250W cm Tempest v2 brolly: Dimensions: 125cm H x 230cm D x 250cm W The Depth is different, so wanted to make sure :)
Go outdoors pop up insulated 2 lay pop up tent £70. Listen to this bullshit that'll be £200, plus a cover and a ground sheet. That'll be £400 sir, gone are the days when tents were banned on lakes. So you had to use a brolly with a cover, the pop ups light, dual lined completely sealed so not bug nasties get in. Yet the price of these are 4-5 times more? I don't get it really
Jeez !!!!!! He nearly took my eye out waving those hands around.
I can’t believed I watched all that and he didn’t say Westside once!
Dats cuz Eastside is da best......aye
Its like watching bb2 back in the day at 2am with the dude in the corner doin sign language 😂
That’s not nice, he sells the big issue
😂😂I thought it was just me
Haha spot on
I can’t stop watching the hands
Groundsheets as extras is just tight
Come on trakker do the right thing and put the magnet closure in the new infill for all brollies as well.....specially the 100t.....come on!!!!
Someone at trakker said u can use the aquatexx 1 for the 100t
Very well done gaz...great range of tempests ..great video..looking forward to using my bivvy 150 with capsule and skull cap

Wonder why Trakker don’t have any plans to release the Tempest 200 in the new aquatexx material. They didn’t give a reason when I asked them
We’ll explained. Can’t wait to try the advanced Bivvy 100 and the inner capsule.👍
Put some Glo sticks in this guy's hands and you would think hes in a rave 🤣
Accurate 😂😂😂

Robbo records Thanks, that 200 certainly is a wicked bivvy! Sorry about the hands - looks like I’m at a rave! 😂

You couldn’t make it more complicated if you tried.
Yeah the brollies I’m still no the wiser 😂
How much does it cost to buy the infill panel ground sheet and skullcap altogether?
Who's operating the Gaz puppet and will the puppets be available in aquatexx?
😂😂😂
When first watching thought he was doing sign language too,lol 😂
So does the advanced 100 brolly only come as a system. and does the magnetic mosquito mesh fit the v2 brolly?
Hi, what size quick sticks for a 100T please
Waiting for tempest 200 advanced!!! Make it with aquatexx!!
Just brought the 100t & waiting for delivery, does it come with quickstiks/stormpoles for front infill panel or do i need to buy them when i buy infill panel?

Same here. I thought about the Nash hide but it only measures 230cm in width. My bedchair is about that anyway.
Does it come in a .....Big box, little box, cardboard box?
The size depends on which model you choose, however we can confirm that they do all come in a cardboard box 😜😂
Can you put a wrap on the advanced brolly
Can you leave the inner capsule in the Tempest 200 when you pack it away.
Just found the one I want its 150 too with all add-ons. It's time to hang up my 2 man hutchy.
Did you take the plunge on one looking for something a little bigger instead of my aqua pioneer want someone’s honest opinion 👍🏻

When are the skull caps going to be in stock for the 150 advanced
I have the tempest brolly advance will there be a winter wrap for this model
which one would be the best for day sessions and the very odd overnighter
Tempest 100
How can I tell the difference between the older tempest brolly advanced and the newer tempest brolly advanced 100
I thought that plus the new advanced 100 EV is being released this month I've heard
Can you leave in inner capsule attached to bivvy when packing away
Do you have to use the quick sticks with the infills for the 100t? Or can you just peg the infill down?
You don't have to, no, but they do help especially when wind is blowing at the front of the shelter.
Well done mate excellent
Good video gaz
What's happening too full overwraps?
i'm a tall angler and i need a 1 man bivvy WITH an inner capsule, one for short session with a small footprint. Which one do you recommend?

Why dont you recommend the 100 bivvy?
Great video. Thank You 👍👍👍👏👏👏
I need a Skull cap for my V2 Bivvy and possibly an overwrap. Will any of the new Skull caps and overwraps fit the V2 Bivvy ?
Hi Stefan, the Skull Cap for the Tempest advanced 100 Bivvy will fit your Tempest V2, however, as yet we have not produced a wrap for the newer models, but there's a good chance you'll still be able to pick up one of the old Tempest V2 Bivvy System Wraps if you shop around at stockists.
What the tackle bag Adam Reed has in the first 3 mins of the video 👀
It’s a large NXG Chilla Bag 👍🏼

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Can a tempest advance 150 skull cap fit the dpm x 150 bivvy .
It sure will 👍🏼

I’m confused, they all lush
All that arm waving, is he trying to take off?
Does anyone want to swap a non-functioning arm for the advanced 150
Keep your hands still mate, you are not in a martial arts movie!! Bit disappointed with trakker as many things such as heavy duty groundsheet and rain door come included in many other bivvies. Trakker prices are not cheap so making us pay extra for essentials is a bit off.
Notice the 2 man bivey had the slimmest bed chair I've seen

The Depth is different, so wanted to make sure :)
Mmm! Not much to say about 150 range
How can you justify charging £500 for a bivvy.
Is he doing sign language
This is the most confusing video I’ve ever seen.
Not seen sign language quite like that before
Louis Barker And you’ll not see it again! Comments taken on board!
@@gazhood9142 Regardless it was still pretty slick! 👍🏻
For the price of the 200 it needs to be aquatexx
If it was Aquatexx®, it would cost a lot more than it's £499.99 RRP - and a fair bit heavier too!
@@TrakkerTV I dont beleive that at all. Similar amount of material as the armo v4 plus and that can be had for under 500 in some places
Throwing up some gang signs when talking.
Why does it feel like his attempting sign language
Put the skinniest bed chair they could in the 2 man
Anyone wanna buy my hide xl

Very low height. All of u tents an bivvys are low on height.
