20° Incubator vs 0° Incubator

[OneClick]

Here are the weights:

0° Incubator +1oz______28.6oz (Argon)
20° Incubator +1oz_____25.7oz (1.1 ripstop)

Wow, feeling a bit silly when I break down the numbers. Only a 2.9oz difference due to the different materials. I would feel it was a waste of $300 to get both, but I tell myself it was worth it to cut the bulk as well

An interesting side note: stuffing the quilt into the included stuff sack for weighing created a TON of static. When I got it within 6" of the scale, that caused it to read -10oz. Weird!

Thanks for the weight report Mark.
I think where the added weight comes in is the much larger pack you need to carry a pair of 0 quilts.
My estimate is they take up about 15L each if you treat them nice and don't over stuff/compress them.
So you can add 1-3 pounds for the larger pack depending on brand or you can pull a sled which is what I do when hauling winter kit.

My sub zero UQ was the last piece of kit I purchased. I had always stacked my summer 40 3/4 and my 20 full for winter camping.

Yeah they really eat up some space. Last winter I still used my 4-season Osprey Atmos 65. That's my goto and the only pack I use anymore. For the 2 winter trips I did, I took my 20° Incubator and a Marmot Pinnacle sleeping bag which is HUGE. But it packs down well so I had plenty of space. If I ever invest in a 0° Burrow, I'm sure I will have a much easier time packing.

When something weighs -10 oz., you should put it in your pack right away!

HAHA I meant -.10oz. But either way, maybe I can start packing helium!

So did I! Anything that takes 10 ounces *off* has got to be great!
