After lots of research I turn to the expert hive mind that is HammockForums. I'm in the market for a new winter TQ and had a few questions.
Am I worrying to much about down shift? I always hated having to shift down or having down shift on me in my sleeping bag days. I just want to stay in place! With that in mind should avoid companies that make big long tubes of down? Or does the baffle construction largely mitigate down shift for most manufacturers?
I already have a super nice custom Diamondback TQ rated to 20F. I had some thoughts that I could just get a synthetic quilt to use as an overbag of sorts. Save some money and I exhale to my hearts content on the thing and get condensation all over it without worrying to much. Has anyone ever taken this approach before? Pros/Cons?
As far as expected temps go I live in MN, and I've winter camped down to -20F or so. Id like to get there one day but for now my warmest UQ is only a 0, though Id imagine I could stack those pretty easily as well.
