Banyan bridge underquilt

[Ecoglo]

Hello, I have a banyan bridge hammock. In the UK it is virtually impossible to find a suitable underquilt. My only real option is to order from USA at a big cost.
The closest fit I have found is the bushmen glow underquilt. It has the right dimensions and suitable loops for fitting to the hardware.
I have thought about a pad, but just not the same.
Has anyone had any experience with the bushmen glow.
Shall I order it to try it?
Will it be too tight?
Thoughts appreciated.
Thanks
Sam

Ask Dutchware customer service too; they may have suggestions. A lot of people simply use an underquilt meant for a gathered-end hammock.

Also maybe consider the OneWind (which I assume is available in the UK): Warbonnet Ridge Runner with Onewind Top and Under Quilts - YouTube

What are you using and can you post a photo of your set up? I use a GE for my day hike bridge (the RSBTR kit) and it works fine. I'd be comfortable at night if I knew I wouldn't be in extreme weather.

I open the end cinch all the way up so the UQ is rectangle-shaped. Then, on each end, I put the suspension bungee across the spreader pole. Depending upon that fit, I might need to tie a knot in the suspension to shorten it so the UQ is pulled up to the body of the bridge.

Also, an under-quilt protector (UQP) might be employed the same way so the UQ fit isn't so critical.
