ive used a klymit insulated static v luxe for a few years now. its been good. i actually prefer it in my ridgerunner double layer hammock, its the perfect width for the pocket in the double layer hammock and laying down on it i can feel the heat kick back from the insulation. been down in the 30's with it no issue. cant speak of the ampex never even seen one, but my klymit has been good.

I had the Luxe version. It was not comfortable. Or warm. And they’re not even the lightest pads. $30 is great though for a backup or kids, etc.

I'm a wide individual who sleeps like an alligator trying to death roll its prey, and 30" is plenty wide. I use a Klymit Static V Luxe (insulated) with a Zenbivy XL base sheet and quilt. It's very spacious, packs down small enough for motocamping, great for weather from 10°F to 80°F (upwards of 90 if there's a fan in the tent), and is plenty conducive to my aggressive sleeping maneuvers. I just wish Klymit would get their heads out of their asses and ditch the flip valves. As long as they keep the flip valves, I can't recommend them.

Klymit Static V Luxe insulated 2lbs This brand is my favourite for price and they don’t make the crunchy chip bag noises.

I had a Klymit Static V Luxe (the extra wide one) and while it's decent enough, I upgraded to a Sea-To-Summit Camp Plus self inflating mat, and that one is way more comfy for me (I'm a side sleeper). It has a much better R value to boot, I think 4.3 vs 1.3 for the non-insulated static V. It does take up more room in the top box but it's worth it to me for the better sleep. I think it's about the same price as well.

Klymit fudges their r values. They call it 6.5, but the actual ASTM certified rating for the same pad when lab tested is only 2.4

Appreciate it. I know I said r-value was irrelevant, but the Klymits would be too low for me.
