High Peak Extreme Pak 0*

[Time Traveler]

I'm looking for a lightweight cheap 0* bag on Ebay and found a whole ton of listing for two 0* bags costing only $140 and weighing only 3 pounds each. It seems WAY to good to be true:-?. Has anyone used this bag before?

I really don't want to sound like a gear snob, but no. With bags, tents, and packs, you get what you pay for. Go with a name brand bag. Then go with a beer brand stove:sun

I already went with the beer stove, took me six months of drinking at college and I'm broke!:eek: I think I'm going to try this bag out (against my better judgement) I'll tell you how it goes.

I bought an xtreme pak 0* for $69 a few months ago off ebay but have yet to use it . I will compare that with the REI 20* bag that I bought during their store clearance for $34. and will post my opinion of it under the Gear Review Forum .

I have a High Peak 20 degree synthetic bag. It is just slightly over the mfg's claimed weight, but close enough. The bag is functional and though I haven't used it down to 20 degrees, it is comfortable in the low 30's. Matter of fact I was quite toasty with my High Peak in a hammock with blue foam underneath. Had to open it up and vent a little to keep from getting too hot.

It is an excellent value for the money, but it is not a highend (bells and whistles), lightweight bag. You can certainly get better bags, but not for the money.
