"With the Quasar, I'm okay to about 5°C (slightly above freezing). Less than that and I just need to use some other tricks to stay warmer, like putting a bottle of hot water in my sleeping bag."
"The only thing about this pad is the R value of 3.3 ... a warmer pad would be nice for the chilly nights in the shoulder season. ... Realistically I don’t think I’m going to do much winter camping, maybe the one off trip here and there but a warmer pad would be nice for the chilly nights in the shoulder season."
