I will inflate it tonight and put a weight on it and see how it holds air. I will also try to get a picture of the sleeping bag in and pancaked.
All I do is stuff my bag in and put a half roll in the top, then I just squish the air out as much as possible, the half roll acts as a kind of one way valve. Once I get as much air out as possible, I just put about three or four rolls in the top and snap the clip. It stays compressed as long as the top is rolled and clipped.
