never been cold with my exped UL either, just a plain air mat

I have the same matt its awesum especially how small it goes.

thinking about upgrading to a new thermarest thats the same weight but much warmer then saving a bunch and going with a lite quilt bag

My exped ul7 is good BUT I have 'popped' it the last few times out, I'm putting it down to the sleeping bag zipper tearing/abrasive when wiggling about . Fixed those but now has a slow leak that ends up in a half inflated Mat about 3 in the morning. Awesome for the compact size etc but just be careful where you make your bed

Thanks for all the input and feedback, I'll update once I have bought one and given it a few nights out.
