It's a great set up. Back in December I slept 7hrs in blizzard conditions at -4 and toasted my nuts off it was so warm in the bag. The bag, liner and mat weigh in at 2.1kg which isn't bad at all. 👍
I have been considering a couple of those Reactor liners but want to compare if possible to something more simple. This is for helping my wife stay warm - and I have a few trips planned which are not too far of a carry, and wondered if a couple of fleece blankets would achieve similar? And it would save us £100!
(System we have = 2x Roben Primacore 60 mats, an old Mountain Equipment Dragon 500 or Sierra Designs Zissou 35. If cold I add a reflective foam mat below and pile on clothes inside.)
