Great Pad….
This is my 3rd Klymit pad. I bought the insulated static V Luxe because my 2 regulars ones rock and I wanted something with more room. I’ve used these up to around 12,000 ft in all seasons in Colorado. In Winter I’ve used it in sub- zero temps and didn’t feel any cold spots. The only downside for me is the valve is a weakness. I’ve had my other pads for several years and have had to send them back for warranty due to the valve leaking. Just sent one back this week-11/21. Which leads to my next thing. They’ve always honored their warranty. If the valve wasn’t an issue I would have given a 10 & a 5! The material can be slippery with the nylon of a sleeping bag, so I’ve taken shoe goo and put drops of it along the top of the pad so I don’t slip off. Great pads at a reasonable price. I have a very expensive brand that I no longer use because the valve style makes it hard to inflate, especially compared to Klymit’s. Makes a huge difference after skiing or snowshoeing for miles up to altitude!
