enLIGHTened equipment down quilt from $165

My quilt was shipped out.. now comes the dreaded "waiting for the UPS/USPS/Fedex guy"

The anticipation is making my skin crawl

3 day priority shipping keeps that wait as short as realistically possible. Hope you love using it as much as we loved making it.

"Can only turn 11 once right Matt!?

More like 111 (It's not the years…it's the mileage).

Tim…i got the quilt today!!!
It's really ugly (my color choices, NOT Tim's work), but it is also a thing of beauty! Excellent workmanship! Well worth the short wait time!

Matt

Very nice, well worth the investment. Should be perfect for summer trips.

Thanks
Andy

I'm so jealous of you guys….if we were hiking together I'd pull the old "whoops my trekking pole slipped…did that hurt?" routine. Ahh I can't wait to get my quilt :D

It's about time someone got some love for bringing memes to BPL! Seeing that I'm still waiting on my Rev X to ship that made my day, Kenny… Now if only someone would show me some love for my post on the Deekins deal earlier this week. I guess the price of GOLD just isn't what it used to be.

I took that Deekins offer and ran with it…since I'm out of money now – both Tim's quilt and a kick-back for you Andrew are going to have to wait awhile.

Meanwhile I'm just going to hang out at the fire and CAMP LIKE A BOSS

I got my quilt and YOU GUYS DIDN'T!!!!!

Delivered. My meanie of a fiancee who's at home right now won't send pictures to me. I'll post some pics tonight when I finish the 5 hour drive to Boston for St. Patrick's Day (heck yeah, I'm bringing the quilt :))

That reminds me….THIS is who i would have sent after Tim if mine had not come soon:

Those saints don't scare me! Looks like my notifications are down again I missed all of this stuff

Kenny, yours is shipping tomorrow. The girl who had it was sick so I had to get it back and have one of the others rush it. It came in just in time to get stuffed today so it's all yours soon

-Tim

Just received shipping notification. Tim must have been busy this week because I know there were quite a few quilts ahead of mine. 0 degree downy goodness on its way!

Has anyone received a quilt that was missing the neck cord lock? I just found out there was a miscommunication with one of my finishing guys and at least 5 quilts shipped minus that cord lock.

There are two simple solutions if this happened to yours. 1) ask me to send you a cord lock
2) take a cord lock from one of your understraps and tie a loop in it to secure it to that side of the quilt and use the cord lock at the neck.

Really sorry this happened and hope my solutions are acceptable to the few people this mistake will affect.

-Tim

Nope. Quilts were in perfect shape here.

M

There shouldn't be too many people affected as he only does a few quilts a week but I just want to make sure I was on top if it. I will be contacting directly all the people I suspect it may have affected. i just like keeping it transparent.

-Tim

Tim, I just wanted to let you know..that minus the pink and the unicorn and all the rest, this is how I feel about your quilt!

Thanks for the Props Andy!!! Hope you get yours soon, Mine is wicked!

Overall, I am very impressed. It's so light and fluffy, and has so much loft, I'm confident it'll keep me toasty down to the 20s. I ordered a wide 20 degree with the overfill. I love it!

I'll add pictures of my quilt. It's a 0 degree quilt. I was a little worried at first about not having the foot end sewn since it will be used in cold weather, but as you can see, there is hardly a hole at all once you cinch it down.

Man…these photo's are making me want one.

Paul (bump),
I used my enlightened quilt this weekend in my Echo I. Muahhahahaha :)

I am loving all the photos!

i will mention this hear but once it goes up on the site i will make a new gear deals thread and twitter/facebook comments.

we will now be offering 8d as a no cost upgrade in our Revelation bags (not the X). my recommendation is 20d shell 8d liner but if you have a bivy or very windproof shelter all 8d would be an option also. savings of at least 2oz will be seen in an all 8d quilt.

-Tim

Tim, these things are looking seriously awesome. I'd pick up another one off you, but my original WLQ (now called Epiphany) is still going strong many years later. Like I have always said, the 0.33 cuben is tougher than most people think. Nice work!

If y'all keep this up, I may have to order a quilt. More weight savings with a different material. I have a 1.5 lb. WM bag, so I need to warrant the expense and the weight savings. Plus, do I get a summer bag or an extended season summer bag?

Steve,

That WLQ1 basically started enLIGHTened equipment. It was the 2nd down quilt I had ever made and single handedly changed the course of my future. Maybe I should buy it back from you :)

And to answer as to which temp your quilt should be, yup. You NEED both:)
