Need a pad for camping in 20-75F temps. I am looking at the Nemo Tensor Ultralight Insulated, however, it seems like it keeps users warm using a “Aluminized Film”. Will that make the mattress hot in warm weather as it reflects unwanted body heat back to me? If so, I’ll look at other mattress with regular insulation so I have something to use in my range of situations. Thanks for any replies!

Neither a radiant barrier nor insulation does much of anything unless there’s a temperature difference.  In warm weather if the ground is significantly cooler than the air, you might do better with less insulation under you.  Otherwise no.
