Of course, specific temp ratings of pads can't be accurately estimated without knowing what the rest of the sleep system is, how the hanger him/herself sleeps (cold or hot), what the weather conditions are (more than temp, e.g., wind, humidity, precip, etc.) and a bunch of other rather important considerations. Still...
For
me and
my sleep
system, the older Oware ¼" works to 25°. I've been perfectly comfortable at 26°, felt cold coming through at 22°. One thing I've planned for those colder temps but have not yet tried out is incorporating my sit pad (a 4oz hunk of WM blue foam) at the cold spot (shoulders). FYI, these were temps I noted...I didn't have a mini-max thermometer so temps may have hit lower.
I've never had any issues with slipping with this 60 X 40 X ¼, 7oz pad and I think its dimensions are the reason why. At this size there's little room for it to slip.
Taking care when I lay down, I've not had any wrinkle or bunching problems either. Perhaps the bad behavior rep of pads comes from the smaller ones?
