SE Emergency Sleeping Bag - Heavy Duty - Bivvy Thermal Sleeping Bag Camping and Survival Gear - Winter and Cold Survival Emergency Outdoor Sleeping Bag - EB122OR

The media could not be loaded. I'm giving this emergency bag five stars because it's a well-made piece of gear that I'm happy to have with my supplies. That is not to say that it doesn't have some limitations. Having slept out in it when the temperatures dipped down around freezing, I can say that I wasn't even close to being as comfortable or warm as I have been in even a lightweight sleeping down bag. At just over 6 ounces, it's certainly lighter and more compact than my lightest down bag. But boy oh boy, I'd rather have that light sleeping bag any day of the week.What is great about this bag is that 1) it's smaller and lighter than just about any other sleeping bag, 2) it's an actual piece of gear, unlike the very thin emergency blankets you can tear easily, and 3) it can be used as a bivy sack to raise the temperature of any other sleeping system. So this final point is to say that you can put your blankets or other sleeping bag inside of this bag, or this bag inside your other sleeping system, and significantly raise your temperature and comfort level over night. In this way, I think this bag could be a real life saver at low temperature.What I learned from sleeping out in this bag:● You will die of suffocation if you do what you'd do in a sleeping bag and pull your head inside and close up the top of the bag. Keep in mind that this is a glorified, human-sized trash bag -- actually, it's a lot like a body bag -- so you'll suffocate in this bag if you try to breath in it. This means that I wore my heavy winter jacket to bed, as air infiltration was a problem around my neck and shoulders, and a winter hat was essential to staying warm.● Bunching up in a fetal position (on my side) and pulling the bottom of the bag up and under me kept me the warmest. Less area to heat and heat consolidation worked out.● This bag does not breath like a GoreTex bivy sack or regular sleeping bag. This means that moisture built up in the bag over night. In a survival situation, that wouldn't bother me one bit as I'd be alive to complain about the moisture in the morning. But as a piece of backpacking gear, say, you'll want to note that you will have to dry this bag out during the daytime hours just to keep it from remaining wet.● The temperature inside the bag was bearable, even down around freezing. This was in a tent with all the flaps open, as I wanted to see how cold I could stand it. Note that I was on a sleeping pad, and the ground was the coldest thing to deal with.● A small point, but this bag is noisy when you move around. I found I woke myself up as I moved around. Sleeping in this bag with others in a tent would probably drive them nuts.● Re-packing this bag tight enough to fit back in its stuff sack takes some practice. I found you had to roll it very tightly from the bottom, then unroll and fold it to get it to fit. When it is back in the sack, though, it's pretty compact.As I mention in my video, I'm glad to have this bag even though I know it has some limitations. I will keep it with my emergency supplies and rest assured that it's there. I also could see taking it on summer trips to the high-country so I could take only my lightest sleeping bag but have this backup (as a bivy sack to go over my sleeping bag) for very cold nights at high altitude. It's tough enough that I'm not afraid of wearing holes in it or ripping it or anything like that..................This product was NOT given to me as part of any promotion. I bought it after doing some comparison shopping and this review is entirely the result of my own opinions and use of the product.

Much better than some Mylar sleeping bags I have used and I was immediately impressed! Perfect for just about any emergency situation or even a spur of the moment camping trip. The compact size of about 3" in diameter and 6" in length with it's own it's stuff sack weighing a mere 5.8 oz make it ideal for a day pack or overnight bag! It can also be used as a liner for a regular sleeping bag if conditions get extremely cold. One or two should be in your vehicle emergency kit. Sometimes it's fun just to see how light you can go for an overnight-er. Very happy with this emergency sleeping bag that is also reusable if you treat it right! That gives it extra points right off! Winter is coming on and emergencies will happen! I have also made my own emergency sleeping bags in the past from the Mylar emergency blankets commonly called space blankets by putting two together with Mylar duct tape and or regular duct tape! Just can not understand why they doubled the price within 3 weeks! WILL NOT REORDER because of that! That's been happening a lot lately!NEW UPDATE: The price was more than doubled and now lowered since my original order Oct 4th. It is only the 27th. Now the price lowered again a couple of bucks so maybe I can order for the scouts now. They were more upset than I was about the price increase since their project involved in creating emergency kits for themselves, friends and family members! Regardless of what happened price wise this is a decent emergency sleeping bag and will keep you warm and not like sleeping under a hard candy wrapper! Be Prepared!

I bought these to use on our cars and in case of an emergency. They will go in our emergency/bug out kit that is in a large bin. If a storm hits or we are stranded on a car I want something to keep us going. I also have a few wool blankets in some old NBC Bags (Army reference) in each vehicle. These should be a nice assist for camping as well. They seem to be assembled well enough, I don't know how long they will last in an emergency outdoor situation with rocks and tree limbs, etc. The little case is nice, it is easy to open, refold, roll and reinsert back into the original little carry bag. They are small, lightweight and hopefully durable. I like them so far, I am going to buy a few more. I feel they are worth the money for a lightweight, warm weather protective bag. These are not for subzero temps, they are a last-ditch protection method.

This emergency sleeping bag is the perfect size for an emergency bag, and for a care package for the homeless. It's excellent quality and reusable. It comes in a small reusable drawstring pouch, inside a box. I've added pictures.The only thing that concerns me is the product has a warning for California users which states "This product May contain substances known to the state of California to cause cancer and/or reproductive toxicity." But if this is he difference between surviving and not surviving, then it will work. This product is Made in China.Pros:Reflective materialRetains 95% body heat40um thickReusableTear resistantLightweightDurableCons:"This product may contain substances known to the state of California to cause cancer and/or reproductive toxicity."
