I LOVE my 0°F Incubator, so much so that I just got it back from having HG do 4oz overfill on it so that I can take it even lower hopefully.

I just bought an Underground Quilt Zeppelin Long 0 degree underquilt with 3 oz. of overstuff. According to their specs, that should give it an extra 10 degrees of warmth (there is a 6 oz. fill difference between the 0, 20 and 40.) It is 47" wide X 83" long. It has hydrophobic down and a water resistant shell. I also upgraded (in my opinion it's an upgrade) to the multicam outer shell which also has a higher denier rating and I believe better water repellent qualities.
I just put the order in a few days ago and so am obviously excited about receiving it! UGQ underquilts also have baffles (similar to the draft collar on a sleeping bag) to keep warm air from escaping. At least, I think that's what I read. Total weight for mine, even at the long size and with the overstuff, will be right at about 2 lbs., maybe even a few grams less. Unless I'm mistaken, this figure also includes the suspension rig. I got the long size because I also intend to use this as part of my ground sleeping kit.
