Not %100 but I'm sure that fuel transfer in a pressurized can doesn't work that way. Unless you have a pump, the two cans will just equal out. You need a pump system to force the total fuel from one can to another, otherwise the can with more pressure will empty in to the lesser can until the pressure equals out. So that device may just be a scam.

Hi Greg, yes I got a reflective pad which is similar to that windscreen thing that you put in your car in hot weather and I think it works ok . anyway, that said, you talked about putting bungies around the mat and reflector ? maybe use some of that rubbery net they put under mats in the house to stop slipping, it's cheap as chips ! Good luck mate.

Hah, Alltrails does have great features but yesterday, I got VERY lost do to a mistake on All trails in a remote canyon. I was never in food and water trouble, because I always bring like a gallon and a half of water and plenty of food for a day, but I had to do 4 point contact climbing and trek through a very dense, dry woods that made me look like I got whipped for punishment when I got out of it, AND I ended up close to the sides of cliffs that were at least 1000ft straight drops down, probably more. These cliffs were not supposed to be a trail. Kind of dangerous. I actually did have fun though, I'm not the panic type, I enjoy the situation regardless (except for getting slashed up). But man, if it had been someone other than me, unprepared for these unplanned detours I could see an SOS call being made 😆 I was actually slightly annoyed at Alltrails during this trek. I ended up doing 18 miles in a very rugged remote place, when I was supposed to do about 12 miles.

Helpful, thanks! I'll probably get it because there's nothing else like it: running vest and ~50L size. As I suspected and your review confirmed, I'll probably be cutting a LOT of things off of it. Seems like such a great pack, and all other reviews (diff size/shape people) say it's very comfortable. If they trimmed off some of the crap, it would also make it lighter - 36-40oz is a lot compared to some of the ultralight frameless 40L packs around 14oz.

Well here’s what most people do not consider. What does it cost you at home, not hiking? What do you normally spend on food, gas, laundry, housing, utilities, medical/medicines, etc.? I don’t think you should consider food as part of the cost to hike. Lodging, yes. Ubers, etc. yes. Hostels yes. Equipment, clothing specific to thru-hiking, yes. My first interest in thru-hiking started while reading the book Lost on the Appalachian Trail by Kyle Rohrig. He wore the same shoes for over 1K miles before getting another pair. He used a hammock. His backpack was a military style and pack weight was about 40 lbs. He made his own hiking staff. Not everyone will hike like this, but he even hiked 2/3 of it with his dog! He is from Florida so wasn’t used to mountain hiking. My point is that you can find a way to do it if you want to by doing what works for you.

Radiant insulation requires an air gap in construction to work, so having reflectix + an inflatable pad to provide the air gap is what works. Some insulated inflatable pads have reflective foil down the middle with air gaps on both sides and can get R4 value, just having reflective mylar emergency blanket underneath an air pad would also work. Radiant insulation requires that air gap, that is why a space blanket directly on the skin is colder, it becomes conductive, but with an air gap it reflects heat.

Thank you for the tips. Be very careful using the fuel transfer device. At room temperature, canisters should be filled no more than about 80% full of liquid with 20% volume of gas at the top to allow for expansion. If a canister is filled with liquid with no "headspace," then an increase in temperature results in a large increase in pressure and can cause the canister to burst. If the released gas ignites, it's the bomb!
