    Bivouac often run them at 20-30% off if you can be a little patient.

    EDIT: 25% off most exped mats currently... Sleeping Mats and Accessories - Bivouac Online Store

    Yes. That's the one. FreezePro shop? Or something like that. Ski and snowboard shop in Scotland IIRC.

    Some of the batches of the UL7 mats had a habit of splitting between the baffles.

    If you're leaving your camp set-up during the day while you're away hunting or whatever, and there's any chance of it being a warm day or the tent catching sun, open the valve on the mat and put the wee stopper in to hold it open. Doesn't let all the air out, but stops the air heating up and pressurising the mat, which won't help the longevity of the baffles..

    Yeah I've bought a couple of things off them. Quick and cheap shipping and very reasonable prices as you don't pay vat or gst.
