How does this compare to the Sea to Summit Thermolite Reactor Extreme Liner? I’m a big fan of natural materials, where possible. It seems to weigh 100g more (500g vs 400g), but how does it compare for warmth and comfort (specifically warmth)?
G'day Luke,
There's no real way to compare these I'm sorry, as the warmth of a liner cannot be independently tested or verified its literally a case of best guess.
I know the Thermolite Reactor Extreme Liner has a 15ºc claim, but in my personal experience with owning this one, you'd be lucky to get a few degrees of extra warmth.
It's one of those situations where your physiology and entire sleep system has more impact on the effectiveness of a liner than the liner itself. I'd lean more towards a merino liner, as I find merino to be a better material for temperature regulation than synthetics, but if you are finding you're consistently sleeping cold, there are some other things you can do to try and offset that aswell.
Thanks for the reply, Lauren. Just looking for a liner that can be used with a 5ºC comfort rated bag, when travelling to cooler parts of Australia than our beautiful Northern NSW/Southern QLD region (which has minimum mean temperatures in winter of around 11-12ºC). As I understand it, a 5ºC comfort rated bag is likely suited for minimum overnight temps of 8-10ºC (pending how warm or cold one sleeps), so hoping a liner can help take that down another 5ºC or so, to 3-5ºC overnight temps. It's such an interesting space with these temperature ratings, and understand it can vary based on sleep systems, tent/shelter used, and also personal factors. I may just have to purchase one of each, perhaps, and see what my partner and I prefer. Thanks again for your reply.
No worries! I'd lean more toward the XTM in that case. I used the Thermolite Reactor with a 0ºc sleeping bag, on 3ºc nights overseas, and I froze my butt off.
Granted my sleeping mat didn't have a super high R-value, but long story short, the liner did very little to help. Try the XTM if you haven't already made your purchase.
