HDTV Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 (edited) gday- a while ago i might of asked around in regards to the sleeping bag liners to boost a bag for additional warmth. prior to the gatta hunt, with intentions to pack out into the cold valleys, i set about researching the liners and in the end i purchased a thermolite reactor extreme bag liner...... i got to use it/test it out an my previously -2 rated bag, withstood the freezing temps to keep me well warm to sleep all night into the pre dawn glow. reviews were varied, some saying not worth it, some saying good but no +15 temp advantage/gain, an some loved theirs. some use the bag as a summer sleeping bag in tents,on hikes etc.... i coupled my liner inside the bag which is inside the gortx bivvy bag, got to say theres no cold slap to the face when ya first get in! warms upreally quick. id be confident in undertaking some winter back packing with this combo happy days! http://seatosummit.com/product/reactor-thermolite-mummy-liner/ WL Edited May 31, 2018 by WHilly the Lad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbo 30.06 Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Good little review there WL, can you leave the liner in your sleeping bag and still fit it all in the one stuff sack. My old down bag isn't worth a pinch of salt without a liner now but my liner is to thick to pack it all together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barron Posted June 30, 2018 Report Share Posted June 30, 2018 don't know what brand mine is will check it out when i unpack things but does work quite well, might be a psychological thing too at it feels great and of course keeps the bag clean. I like the cold weather but do get very cold and i'm a cold sleeper so any help to make things warmer is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
