Princeton Tec Switchback 3 Light    This product is no longer available
 
Really bright   08-14-09   

I got this for my wife for both trail and street riding at night. She is always nervous about hitting something she can't see at night and it takes away her enjoyment or riding. The light is super bright. It makes me laugh all the time, how bright it is. You can see the trail ahead of you almost like daylight. Honestly I would compare it to a car headlight. The battery pack adds some weight to your ride, but it's totally worth it if you want to see extremely well at night.

Marmot Col EQ Sleeping Bag: -20 Degree Down    This product is no longer available
 
Excellent Bag   11-24-08   

I just bought this bag for my wife. I have had one myself for 5 years. I used it on an Aconcagua climb (sleeping at 19,800ish), and have used it on other climbs and several winter camping trips in northern Minnesota. The bag is very warm. I recommend the Long size for my height (6'2") so you have enough room to stretch your toes. It has good space in your torso area so you don't feel restricted in it.I chose this bag over the Marmot CWM (-40 bag) because it's significantly lighter, and if it's really really cold out you just wear more clothes to bed. The owner of the climbing guide company I've used, Phil Erschler, told me he uses that bag everywhere in the world, from Everest to Vinson in Antarctica. He said on Everest at high camp maybe he sleeps in his down suit too. But I agree with his opinion that the weight/space savings of this bag over the CWM make a lot of sense. I love the bag and would recommend it to anyone. Worth every penny when you're sleeping somewhere cold.
