![]() Our customer service team is dealing with a significant backlog of questions, repairs, and warranties that are keeping them busy. If we're out of stock, it's worth a check to see if they have it.Īt this time we're unable to share updated timelines for re-stocks on specific products as things are changing quickly and unpredictably. On every product page we have a "Find in Store" button for local inventory and a "Find Online" option for our online partners. We've tried to keep our local stores supplied as best as possible. ![]() You can sign up on any product page, and we'll send out an email any time new stock arrives. ![]() This is the best way to get notified whenever we receive new inventory. If there's a particular product that you're really after, we encourage you to take these approaches: Sign up for Back-in-Stock Emails We're doing everything we can to keep production moving, but some supply issues are simply beyond our control. Unfortunately, that's left some of our most popular products out of stock, which we're genuinely bummed about. Part of this insulative value comes from a built-in foam layer that functions even if the pad isn’t inflated.Like many manufacturers, we're experiencing unavoidable disruptions to our supply chain coupled with increased demand for our best-in-class outdoor gear from folks looking for new socially distanced adventures. Add a few breaths of air through the oversized air valves if you want a firmer. In fact, the stated R-value of the pad is an impressive 9.8-three to five times what most ultralight backpacking pads offer. The soft foam pads self-inflate when unrolled, eliminating the need for a pump. Sleeping on the Warmth 3.0 was easy to get used to since it didn’t have the usual problems backpacking pads face such as conducting cold, being too small, or allowing me to feel irregularities under the pad. The 3.0 tested for this review is a burly 6 pounds, making this style of pad unrealistic for backpacking and geared more towards car camping, river rafting trips, or van life. But where a backpacking pad typically weighs in at just over a pound, this pad comes in at about 5 pounds. The smallest, 20-inch size is closer to the usual dimensions of a backpacking-oriented pad. The Lightspeed Warmth Series comes in three sizes that cover a huge range from a 20-inch wide pad to the 30-inch wide 3.0 that I tested. But an improvement would be a built-in mechanism to inflate it more fully.Ĭomfort and Design: Wide and thick for comfort The pad is 3 inches thick and plenty comfortable, so the incomplete inflation didn't necessarily hurt the pad’s overall insulation and comfort. ![]() It’s also much cheaper than many backpacking pads which cost more due to engineering and ultralight materials compared to the simplicity of this pad. But it still wasn't the same firmness of a do-it-yourself inflating pad.Īt less than $100, the Warmth 3.0 is more affordable than most full-size air mattresses, so you’re saving money as well as space and weight. Because the valve is wide open and air would leak out easily after I blew it into the pad, I needed more force to keep the air in. While it worked, I wasn’t able to get much more inflation this way. In an effort to get the pad more firm, I closed one valve and attempted to blow into the second valve to force a bit more pressure into the pad. That said, the pad felt a bit soft compared to manually inflating pads that I normally use when backpacking. Subsequent uses were very simple and the pad came to full inflation after a minute at most. The first time I inflated the pad, it didn’t appear very full after a few minutes, but after leaving it open overnight it looked much better. ![]() However, the first time you do this, the directions recommend leaving the pad’s valves open for several hours, ideally overnight for your first inflation. The Warmth 3.0 is a self-inflating pad which means you simply twist the two knobs at the foot of the pad to open them and the pad starts taking on air.
