I'm thinking of getting a summer bag as my Vango Venom 400 can be a bit too warm at that time of year. This is about 300g lighter than my Venom and would appear to suit my needs so does anyone have any experience of this bag or Lifeventure bags in general?

Is this bag worth a punt at £50?

It's got a glow in the dark zip puller, what's not to like?
Usually a down bag without mention of fill power or the amount of fill would have me bothered but at fifty quid you can't really go wrong ... but at full price I wouldn't bother.
Don't expect much loft Ray but it should suffice for the 'warmer' months. Given it weighs 660g, has a rating of +14 and guessing the fp is less than 600, I imagine there's between 150g and 200g of down in there.
