Title: Re: New tent: Sierra Designs Flash Post by Mad_Mat on Oct 21st, 2016 at 6:07pm
since you said it would be used mostly in humid south, here is my thought: single wall part is the rainfly/roof - you may get a lot of condensation there, regardless of the ventilation
I only have one single wall tent - a Black Diamond Firstlight which uses Epic fabric, which is not even totally waterproof - i.e. it breathes. I do get quite a bit of condensation inside when the temperature swing is large enough - if cold enough, the inside can get coated with frost. SIL-nylon isn't breathable at all as far as I know. Otherwise, I have 5 Sierra Designs tents, and all have given me good service (haven't used the 3 man tent yet) and been dependable. check and see if you can find any gear reviews for the tent you want |
