Bushmen Thermo Tarp Review - First Look.

[@___Chris___]

I just ordered one. I imagine it's also less transparent than most tarps and gives better UV protection and shadow on a hot summer day. Turned around with the silver side on the outside it might also help with reflecting the sun, if so desired. It also appears relatively light-weight, compared to other tarps, despite the added functionality.

[@alecsibley3415]

You will enjoy using it 😊 It doesn't block more light than other light weight tarps as its not multi layered.

I like the tarp very much. It would have been nice to give a cost estimate and a source along with the information you conveyed. I wouldn't know how to get one or how much money to set aside. I am a 70 yr.old non computer savvy kind of person. I have a tablet which I only use to watch KZbin and that is it. I did enjoy your video and gave a thumbs up and subscribed. I am from North Carolina, USA. Thank you so much for your hard work in the production of this video. I am hoping to hear more from you. See you later ! A friend always !

[@peterkinberger9741]

PS. Regarding the claimed thermal camera issue that the wink, wink guy mentioned. It can likely be tested at a fire department. They often have such equipment for rescues and most likely would help you resolve that issue. That would be good content for another video on the tarp and possibly other things.

I think this is only available from Bushmen directly. Here is a link to the product. *NOT AFFILIATED* bushmen.pl/en/product/thermo-tarp-3x3-olive/

[@juultjewarren7596]

There are some bushcraft sites, and the likes, who sell this tarp, too. Bushpappa is one, Tarp is an other. Search the internet. The price is about €70 / €90,- + sending costs... i love this one, because of the allu side, might make a difference, when i am camping in South-France/ Spain/ Portugal. Good luck & take care,

Finally--more content! Was beginning to think you offended Will Smith or something

[@alecsibley3415]

Look at you being satirical. It's been a difficult road back. I'm just in the layby of recovery.

👍👍👍👍👍

Informative and beneficial video

[@alecsibley3415]

Glad to hear it. Thanks.

[@Hammer1978]

Great review. You remind me of Chris Caine.

[@alecsibley3415]

I have no idea who that it. I'll take it as a compliment anyway. Thank you.

[@saxoncrow2500]

Hi are. You still using this tarp and does it reflect heat as it suggests? Thanks.

[@alecsibley3415]

Yes, I am still using this tarp. It does reflect heat. You can feel the difference. I love using it during the winter.

[@siftordekemet7790]

Thanks for sharing

[@alecsibley3415]

You're welcome. Thanks for watching. :-)

Do you think that, given its condensation issue, it would make for a bad for a bad suvival blanket? I've been swithering to get it for that very purpose, and now I'm not so sure.

[@alecsibley3415]

If you are looking for just a survival blanket, I think a good mylar one would be better at reflecting body heat. Lighter, smaller and cheaper too! The condensation issues can't be avoided unless you buy or make one from a material that allows vapor to pass through e.g. Gore-Tex

[@scotbotvideos]

@@alecsibley3415 I've got an Arcturus mylar job, but it's not really portable. Also, Grunt Proof, demonstrated they don't make for good tarps, whilst the Bushmen is primarily one. It's disappointing about the condensation issue. I guess it is what it is, though. Thanks for your thoughts on the matter. 'Tis much appreciated.

[@TarikVann]

Great stuff, but please edit this down so that it has alot less of you figuring out what to say and looking at the product yourself (or call it a "first look" or "hands on" which will let me know what i'm in for)

[@alecsibley3415]

It's been said everything before the word "but", is a BS.;-) This was my first review video, and as you rightly said. It shows. If I can change the name of the video to something like you suggested, I shall. It makes sense to do so. Thanks for the advice, and for watching.

[@TarikVann]

@@alecsibley3415 no problems, and I wouldn't have commented if it was a bad video or was useless. I benefitted from it, just had to skip through a lot. So thank you.

That sounds like something the devil would say: Their is no Heaven without Hell, or in another way. Their could be no Heaven if their was no Hell, thereby glorifying hell a place of Everlasting Torment! I guess this is why God tells you not to glorify the things of this world, because if you have eyes to see, you would be amazed how many of our everyday products that we use have references to the Devil like this!
