Trying to see if I can shed weight, increase comfort and at least maintain temp rating.
my current system is either a 20 or 30 degree bag (3 &2.5 pounds) my pad is 1.5 pounds r-value of maybe 1.
looking at a new pad that is 19.2 oz, r-value 4.4. This saves 4.2oz and gains a lot of insulation. Would the r-value increase be enough to allow me to run my 30 degree bag more often thus saving another 8 ounces? Main use is through sept in Colorado below 10,000ft.
