Looking for a bug tent inner to use with my Alpkit Rig7.
Something like the Rab element solo or a bearpaw minimalist 1 or pyranet 1.

Re: WTD Bug Tent
I got this to go with my rab sil tarp 2 it was deliverd in 10days and is 500grams in stead of the quoted 600g if you swap out the guy lines.
Packed Bulk is good about the same size a thermarest prolite.
Quality is ok for £16.00.

Thanks MM.
Can you comment if it is midge proof? (Or can anyone comment if they have tried this?)
If it is, it looks like it would be worth a try at that price!

Re: WTD Bug Tent
I will test mine in few days. Comparing the net against my life system net I would say yes. I will keep you updated
Update: I just asked for the netting specs I let you know if it 400+ holes per square inch which would make it midge proof.

Re: WTD Bug Tent
I counted 1000 holes per square inch, there is minamal stretch to the materiel each hole is smaller then a pin head, my only gripe is where the zips meet they don't nest together well as all 3 zips hit head on as opposed to in to a pocket.

Lol. I hope that did not take you too long to count!
Thank you for checking for me though. Off to order one. Just a shame they don't do a single one though.
