    Enlightened Equipment Revelation as an under quilt???

    Has/does anyone use an Enlightened Equipment Revelation as an under quilt? I've been blessed with two and I'd like to just make a fluffy down sandwich. I'd be running my on Dutch's Chameleon.

    Thanks for any insight.

    I do not think this is possible because an UQ is cut/ made with a dual differential design that is suspended. You would probably have to add side channels for the suspension to run in. Also, I'm not aware of any differential's in the TQ so if you did this you would have to be careful that you didn't compress the down when snugging the modified UQ up to the hammock. In the long run you will most likely want to get a true UQ, or two- cause you already have two good TQ's.

    I did this with a down blanket by just making a gathered end hammock out of it and hanging it right under my hammock and it worked fine. Of course, there is a fair bit of fiddling around to get it right. Attached it with shock cord to my hammock suspension.

    It's no UQ, but it kept me warm. Good luck.

    Maybe sell one of them and buy a proper UQ?

    That's a fairly expensive piece to use in an experiment.
