Reflective & Foam Pads.= (MYTH BUSTING) Radiant Heat Transfer...bexbugoutsurvivor.

Really useful info, there is a lot of confusion around this issue. This makes it a lot clearer to understand 🙏🏾

The cheap “pitted” fold up matts are strangely good. I’ve found them for £5-6 sometimes. I got a few and give them to youngsters doing DoE.

I absolutely agree with you!! I have noticed the foam egg crate mat keeps me warmer in my hammock (without an underquilt) than any of the other heat reflective things I have tried. Thanks for making this video!

I seen one of those hammocks on the metal frame erected in IKEA. Of course me being me had to try it out, thinking it would look nice in my garden. Result was, my back and buttocks hit the horizontal ground bar. Not too comfortable I thought. Problem had only just started. When I tried to get out of the hammock, I was so low down I couldn't get my legs under me to give me the necessary leverage to lift my body onto my feet. I had to call a nearby Security Guard to haul my ass out of the hammock. Ah! The joys of getting old, it was never like this in the brochure. IKEA have since removed the hammock from its display position. I think the Security Guard was demanding danger money for risking his back.

Great (and accurate) description of how heat reflects ... or doesn't! 👍

Great video, like all on your channel. I love it. Greetings, Fan from Poland.

Great video Bex. Just finished watching a video by a very well known American who told people to use the reflective sheet with only a sleeping bag between you and it! Poor information puts lives potentially at risk. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👍

Learnt a lot from this vid ,will use the info thanks

Great info Bex, appreciate all your efforts 👍

New subscriber…great info for both hammock and ground camping! I do both and appreciate the testing you've done…will try these methods. Fortunately I have a Hennessy Expedition XL hammock which has a double bottom that allows insulation to be inserted and prevents movement. I'll be binge watching some of your other videos.

Good video Bex , thanks for sharing , God bless mate !

I sleep in a hammock with 20F down underquilt, got down to teens and I got cold butt syndrome, then realized I had a piece of reflective bubble sunscreen I use as a sit pad, put it under me and it worked.

We love you, your army teach surplus is famous = original person experience, no bullshit :) Greetings from czech 🙂

People who sleep rough use cardboard to make a insulating layer to sit or lie on.

I'm not a fan of pads but not freezing to death appeals greatly :-) I'm after a Solognac furtiv to use beneath the pod as a waterproofed second skin/layer and had pondered if a space blanket/reflector insert would be worth the effort. Can't wait for part two Marra 👍

Very nice video. Thank you ❤

So in theory reflectix should work then. Its a reflective bubble wrap that is used as a form of insulation in houses. You can buy rolls of it and just cut it down to size

Hey Bex....I need a litte help. I got a question. I'm got a 1, 81 m length. I own a plce british army issued long back ( !!! ) bergan. Is there the option to wear with my ruck on back a battle-belt / Webbing/ etc...?

Interesting video, great easy to understand physics lesson. So any of the silver reflective items will work if you put them under an air mat, as this will give the air gap.?

Excellent channel... 👍 What would you use on Brecon/Black Mountains; bivy or tent (if tent, which one)? Take care
