    Yep, bought one within minutes of recieving the email from Dutch as I had been looking for a 20* UQ... few weeks out of course, but hoping it simplifies the setup - looks like it should.
  2. Shell Fabric Compressibility 20D vs 10D etc

    So, this is kind of a piggyback on the Shell Fabric thread that mostly got derailed by degree symbols, but was curious about some comments I've seen in several threads regarding fill options, ie 800...

    Yep I think 55-60 will work on the ground if a "finished" measurement. I think I posted earlier, 54" chest. HG and EE appear to use post fill for measurements, and UGQ pre-fill.

    Another measurement example - a UGQ 20* XWIDE/XLONG 950 Fill zipper footbox version (with 1oz overstuff footbox) spec'd at 84" long, 65" wide actually measures 75" long 55" wide opened up flat. So...

    Thanks all, I'll watch the vids above - I think I have watched them in the past but will do a refresher :).

    My main issue is width, with a 54" chest and also wanting to use on the ground, it...

    I hadn't thought about layering, good points. See us FL folks know diddly about cold weather lol.

    I wanted to mention in my post above, but it was getting overly long ;) - I had a EE XWide at 65" for a Ground Quilt, and it just swallowed me. Way to wide, even on the ground. I currently have an...
  8. Quilt Shopping is Maddening... Top Quilt Width for hang

    Well I buried my question a the bottom of all this, so for the TLDR crowd... Is 60" too wide for a top quilt in a hammock? It's a DW Chameleon Wide Hammock, although I don't think that makes a...

    I suppose another option is going with the 20 and some overstuff, but if doing that figure why not just get the 0*.

    Or going with the 20* and adding a 2QZQ when needed for a bit more warmth/wind...

    Good points, I am a warm sleeper as well. Looking at N. GA/TN/AL/Carolinas/etc as my coldest use really. A 20* Under to go with my EE 20 TQ would probably be fine, but as mentioned a 0* can be...

    I looked at the 50* Operator set, but b/c of the 4 month wait I just went with a 40/40 850 fill set from UGQ, with the UQ being a 3/4 length version. New hanger here, so leaned heavily on advice of...
