    Bed mats

    On my last trip my exped UL9 blew a baffle which resulted in quite a lumpy nights sleep and reduced confidence in the strength of them. What have others found to be robust without being excessively heavy in the bed mat options? The exped was comfortable enough, one of those unfortunate situations where although didn't have much use is outside of the warranty period

    +1 the neo air xtherm is super toasty... on recent trip other guys were complaining of a cold back from their mats. @Nathan F has been trialling one.

    Sea to summit insulated ultra light. Comfortable, warm and light. A bit noisy at first though, but when your tired it soon fades away.
