I got a LightHeart Solo this week. I'm fairly excited and set it up quickly in the basement for seam sealing. I found the seam sealing a real pain in the butt along the ridge-line. While I could get the ridge-line taunt at the seam where the fly is sewn into the main body / bug netting, the fly had so much extra material that it billowed around the seam. This made it very difficult to seal the seam without gluing the two sides around the seam together. I ended up using grip clips and over tensioning the fabric to expose the seam. I got it done but like I said it was a pain in the butt.
Having said that - I'm a little worried with the wind worthiness of the tent, I think it will be impossible to get a taunt pitch of the fly with this tent. When I used the grip clips to add additional tension it caused the ridge-line to sag a bit. Granted - my experience was in my basement, but I think the fly will be a flapper in the wind.
On a positive note - I ordered the tent last Saturday morning and it was mailed that day and it arrived the following Monday. I even had a few email exchanges with Judy - so the customer service and order processing can't be beat. The weight of the tent came inat 25 oz (1 oz less than the listed weight) with the included guy-line and stuff sack. I have ditched the guy-line for some spectra cord (longer and heavier) and after the seam sealing and adding zipper pulls the weight is 27 oz. Include 4 Ti Sheppard Hooks and 2 MSR GroundHogs and the total weight is 29 oz.
I'll pose my questions about the wind to Judy - but wanted to see if anyone has had any actual field use that spoke to my concerns.
Thanks,
Mike
