just had a look, Can get the normal 1 man and overwrap for £323 with Ebay code.. Seems a great price as the tempest V2 with skull cap and overwrap is near a Grand!

Total fishing tackle has the bloxx compact in stock I bought one at the weekend for £148 posted discount code eBay for 10% off had it delivered yesterday . In my opinion it puts Trakker to shame with the price and quality of the the tempest air and full size for tempest and I've owned both of them in the past and think the bloxx is much better quality than both of the Trakker version .

I would not buy the compact I would buy the normal 1 man

I am deciding whether to get this or a tempest and then decide if to keep my huge prologic 2 man bivvy.

Ideally If I could have one which would be extended like the tempest can with the utility front that would be great whilst trying to keep cost as low as possible, as this has a peak I was checking to see if the front came down to the floor inline with then peak... if it did then you would have a extended footprint.

I'd say not. It's not an extended wrap so doesn't increase the footprint.

But why would you buy a compact sized 1 man bivvy and try and use it for 2 people?! lol

If you put the overwrap on do you think could get 2 bedchairs in lengthways?
