Recommend me a blow up sleep mat. Not exped though

[Davey B]

They're 1000g....when I'm lugging every gram up hill and down dale, I want to maximise on weight saving (Well aware of sleep quality...hence having spent a small fortune with Les at Traveldri buying the Exped mats when little else was available of similar quality) Cheers.

Yeah, if it was for a hiking trip then weight has to be considered obviously. If it’s going on a bike trip then a few extra grams is not going to make a big difference.
I certainly wouldn’t take my MegaMat 10 on my push bike camping trips but I do on my GS.

Why is it that every time I skim over the thread titles I see "blow up sheep"

I’ve been using one of these for the last 4 years. Summer use only, but no issues with warmth or comfort, even when the temp has dropped to single figures in the alps. https://amzn.eu/d/4QMxYYO

Looks good but I think they’ve got their figures slightly wrong!
Item weight = 19.8 ounces.
Weight limit = 750 grams

I have bought a fair few items from these guys. If they say it’s in stock it seems that it actually is, I’m my experience anyway.
They weigh the items themselves they claim.
Cheap? No.
Quality products? Yes

Cheers, I've spent ages looking at their kit over the years.
I've recently had all my camping kit out and weighed it all. Realised early doors I needed some newer lighter stuff for cycle touring so managed to get a tent and sleeping bag off here that has cut 3kg from my 5.5kg tent and bag combo....just need to suss out whether £100 extra to shed 300g is worth it....sort of thing

For cycling maybe not. For hiking, definitely.

Less is always more I reckon.
