Klymit - Insulated V Ultralite SL ™ Sleeping Pad

I have one of these because I'm a side sleeper and it's insulated too. It's comfortable to sleep on, but you need a good tent footprint to stop punctures. CCF would work well.  https://klymit.com/collections/insulated-sleeping-pads/products/insulated-ultralite-sl-sleeping-pad There are reviews of them on YouTube. 

I have the Big Agnes Rapide SL and I adore the thing. I’ve been fine in temps in the teens (Fahrenheit) with a 0° rated bag and overquilt. Before that, I had backpacked with an old Klymit UL V from massdrop (anybody remember massdrop? I miss that) and it was decent, but I had no idea that I could be sleeping on a CLOUD. I can sleep on my side on the Rapide. I can sit up without my butt bones touching the ground through it! I love love love it and it’s so quiet compared to other sleeping pads. I share a tent with my SO and I toss and turn like crazy so I wanted something quiet. I haven’t tried the other pads and I normally wouldn’t give a rave review because I did get the sleeping pad for free full disclosure, but I really am SO happy with the sleeping pad. It is nearly impossible to get it back into the stuff sack tho. And it takes a LOT of pumps to fill it.

Klymic V lite/ul insulated has a 4.4 r value, between 16-20oz. It's the least costly for a pad with stats like that. I had one for about five years that I used extensively, including through the length of California on the Pacific Crest Trail. I chopped the bottom 2' off and sealed it with an iron, and only ever had a problem with leaks at the end of its life. The downside, unless they've changed it since I had it, is the valve, which you have to blow into. The inflate-sack style is nice.

Glad you had success with it! I was super hyped about it from all the accounts of its comfort. Right now my “light” ground sleeping loadout is a klymit insulated paired with Nemo switchback (most comfortable combo I’ve found outside of self inflating) with tarp and bivvy. If I’m going less than 8 miles for an overnight and either the weather is extreme winter or I have a camping partner I haul my stupidly heavy mondo king pad and split the weight of the 3 man tent between us. Been leaning towards just going fully back to my hammmock but I think I’ve determined that I need an open cell/self inflating style pad to prevent hip pain on the ground.

Klymit is known to completely bullshit their R-value ratings. They had an insulated pad rated at 4.4 that they later (had to?) revise to 1.9. I personally wouldn't trust them. Big Agnes pads are leagues better and have excellent customer service if you have a failure. They replaced my broken pad no questions asked, no shipping costs.

That's not to say they aren't a good affordable option if you're camping in hot weather, but just stay clear of the insulated claims.

I tried Klymit and had the same problem. Get a Thermarest Neoair Xtherm or Xlite. I’ve used an Xlite for 4 years with no leaks.

Love our klymit
