Thinsulate insulation works by trapping air molecules between you and the outside. The more air a material traps in a given space, the greater its insulating value. Because the microfibers in Thinsulate insulation are far finer than other fibers, they trap more air in less space, which naturally makes it a better insulator. Thinsulate insulation works in footwear, including hiking boots, hunting boots or casual shoes, because it doesn't bog boots down with weight and it absorbs less than 1 percent of its weight in water, it keeps feet warm even in damp conditions. Mithras ,here are recommended grams of Thinsulate insulation for footwear: •200 grams* for cool conditions or high activity levels – Recommended for work boots, hiking boots, rubber bottom boots, hunting boots, snowboard boots, alpine ski boots, or athletic winter boots. •400 grams* for cold conditions or moderate activity levels – Recommended for rubber bottom boots, hiking boots, PAC boots, hunting boots, or work boots. •600 grams* for very cold conditions – Recommended for hiking boots, work boots, hunting boots or PAC boots. •800 grams* for extremely cold conditions with light activity levels – Recommended for hunting boots, PAC boots, or work boots. •1,000+ grams* for extremely cold conditions with light to minimal activity level – Recommended for unique applications requiring additional insulation. * Grams per square meter of insulation also its: •breathable •moisture-resistant •both machine washable and dry-cleanable.

Ahh the cat is out of the bag right on both counts ,the post and the Danner boots

They do , go the surface shipping and handling for 25%, unless your in hurry.

HI, Rick some of the better units have a power save function ,where you can turn down your watts, from 5w to 1w,also look at battery life, and charging times and charging options 12v & 240v.

HI, go for the 5 watt, always better to have more than less.

Hi, i dont like waist /bum bags , they seem to always be getting in the way , go for a camelbak I have two, the Camelbak lobo ,2 liters of water basic first aid kit, poncho ,40rounds of ammo , leather man tool and a small uhf radio fit in it, and theres just room for a few snacks, I use the 3L mule version when i want to carry more stuff.

Hi ,if you spend more time in the air maybe an ELTs might be a beter option for you. On the ground I'm more inclined to go tinyted's way, EPIRBs of course only when needed.

That sounds a bit like me, I have to confess that i have a couple of knives that have never cut a single thing, let me know when you find the one that never needs sharpening i would be very interested in that one, lol. Nice knives you have there.
