I've used it to make cozy pouches that I really like for freezer bag cooking. Not for anything else though. While it does a good job for dinner, it's bulky and doesn't compress enough for me to consider it for anything else.

I've used it for wrapping hot water bottles and extending the temperature range of my quilts. I like it, but like UncleMJM said, it doesn't pack well. If pack space is important, skip it. If you have room, give it a shot.
You can also look up threads on vapor barriers. It comes up in those threads from time to time.

Cheap but heavyish. I've used it in a 40f setup. (which Dos now owns). A nice car camping option as a quilt or to supplement other quilts. I used it to line my 20f (barely) TQ and it got me down to 10f pretty well.

Not all who wonder are lost...But I'm probably just lost.
Also, it isnt fire proof-------burns quite well ! ( dont ask---long story)
FYI: If you want to know what type a certain bear is, sneak up behind it and kick it. Then,
run like crazy and climb up a tree. If the bear climbs the tree and eats you, it's a black
bear. If the bear just pushes the tree over and eats you, it's a grizzly bear : )
Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me, either, just leave me alone.

I'll be using it tonight to try to extend the range of my quilt down some, not sure if I'll make it down to 5* though.
i have made several quilts with it similar to poncho liners but longer. I always use 2 colors so I can tell the silvered (reflective side of the insulation. While it does not compress, and cannot compare to down, it gets me 20-30 degrees of warmth with the silver side in. only about 10-15 degrees of benefit with the silver side out. By it self that means I am comfortable down 40 degrees or so, which is about 10-15 degrees better than at thinslate poncho liner. biggest drawback was $6.00 per running yard for 48 in. width. better than plain polyester batting though
How does it perform when its slightly wet? (not soaked)
the gears are turning! thanks for sharing.
It's fleece interwoven with reflective strips. So, would wager it does as well as standard fleece.Originally Posted by sdf
