    Packsize of half-wit

    What's the packsize of the half-wit hammock in Hexon 1.0? Will it fit into for example a 2.2L dry sack?

    (Planning out my gear into every detail, every gram... )

    I have other 1.0 hammocks and they would have no problem.

    From a volume perspective you will not find anything that provides bug protection and takes up less space.

    Superb. Can you provide an equivalent in metric system?

    this may be the best ever description, too funny.

    It's about the size of a 6" sub, half of one of them big pickles (you know them great big suckers) and a handful of chips. Yea, if you put all that in a bag, the ole half wit would fit right in the same bag.

    amused and now, hungry.

    You will have no problem with 2.2 L. It will compress down to about a liter.

    I have the PolyD 1.4 Half Wit. It comes with a double ended stuff sack. Never measured it, but I'm guessing it's the one he sells on the site which is 15"L X 14" around the outside diameter. If just packing the hammock itself, this sack is huge.
    Looks like it could fit in a 5 or 6"L X 14" around the outside diameter. I'm planning on making my own double ended sack this size.
