Henry, if you're still looking for input on the Tyvek version, I would like to see the front window/vent be enlarged to match the size found in the Silnylon version. That way you can have views out the front (plus looking up)without adding a screen to the side entrance.
Jan 27, 2009 at 3:46 pm #1473353Thanks, everyone, for all your input. The next iteration of the Sublite will have a mesh door. I've come around to think that the added pleasure is worth the 1-ounce bump. We'll be out of Sublite stock (but not Sublite Sil) for the next month or so.

Jan 27, 2009 at 6:02 pm #1473371How about making it with some non-noseeum mesh for increased airflow?
Jan 27, 2009 at 6:14 pm #1473377I too would like the increased air flow, but… There are folks who might be using this tent in areas where really tiny buggers would be able to get through a heavier mesh.
The Sublite, at present, has a total of approximately 10 square feet of screen. The mesh door would add about an additional 2.5 square feet. That's quite a bit for a one person tent.
