The zenbivy conversion kit looks awesome. I have an EE quilt and I love it most of the time. But it can get a little drafty when it is cold.

I'm a bit hesitant to put stickers on my EE quilt.

Found an old thread. Folks seem to love the conversion kit...

Thread 'Zen bivy sheet/ enlightened equipment quilt'

May 8, 2023

I really liked the idea of the zenbivy setup, but their quilt weight just wasn't quite were I was hoping especially at only 800 fill.

I ordered an enlightened equipment quilt and put some cord attachments on it to attach to the zenbivy quilt. I found a thread in a backpacking forum where the zenbivy owner actually published all the dimensions for where to attach the loops on the sleeping bag and explained how to do it with tenacious tape.

I got the conversion kit and put it on an EE Enigma. Haven't slept in it yet but they seem to be very well attached. I had made some of the DIY tabs and they did not stay on well. Easy to install. The instructions for the conversion kit say to let these cure a few days before actual use to let the adhesive set. They definitely pass the tug test.

Same as the reply above. I put a kit on an El Coyote but I haven't used it yet. I have the 20" Fast Sheet using it with a Thermarest XTherm. I had originally planned on using Z-Pack loop stickers but never committed to doing it.
