Lightest 1P Tent in the World

It is light. But the weight doesn’t include the 10 stakes needed to set it up. And of course they recommend a footprint given the floor weight.

No internal mesh pockets, either.

Trade offs for sure. But sub 12oz is pretty incredible.

For packs, sleeping bags and tents:

Weight x price = 400 pound-dollars.

Walmart: 8 pounds x $50

Sportsman’s Warehouse: 4 pounds x $100

REI: 2 pounds x $200

UL cottage: 1 pound x $400

SUL cottage: 2/3 pound x $600

@David that’s pretty accurate.

The lightest tents are also the ones most likely to fail when you need them most. That low number of ounces is as much a marketing strategy as it is a weight savings.

I’ve been very happy with my Plexamid, and I wouldn’t hesitate to buy this upgrade. Of course, the Aeon Li also looks fantastic. If I downsize my dog, I will be going back to a 1p tent.

I have the regular Plex Solo-13oz-ish. I see no issue with the light version. Many do the 2.0mm to 1.3mm guy line mod without much issue already. Having a slightly less robust floor seems like a better trade off than making the tent smaller.
