Good choice im still using my v1 tempest now for shorter sessions. I'm under it now with mozzy mesh and skull cap and its been a very reliable shelter the only thing thats ever gone wrong with it in the 4 years ive owned it is the bolts in the block came loose but I caught it just in time.

You can pack the hide away with any of the infill panels attached, I have both and do it regularly

Thanks for all your input, some of your pros and cons made me decide on the Tempest brolly.
Let's just hope it will suit my angling.

Cheers

Nash titan hide or titan hide xl
So easy to put up and down
Set your bed up, open hide and place over bed
job done
If your small and nimble the standard hide will be ok
or
if your large and non nimble like me, the XL is a good choice

I’m in my Hide XL now, been using it since last summer, packs away fine with the mozzie mesh on, goes back in the original bag no problem

Fine with the tempest brolly, you just have to leave the door zips undone

Don't want to hijack, but does anyone know if the Hide can be packed away with the mozzi panel still connected?

I currently use a Lo Pro with a permanent mozzi panel that was added by army Andy. It's great, but as previously stated not the sturdiest of shelters.

Like the look of the Tempest Brolly, but pretty sure you can't pack it away with the mesh attached?

They do an overwarp and a mozzie mesh buddy.

Can you by a storm cover for the lo pro?
They do look good and perfect for my river fishing

Has anyone got any experience with the new Wychwood brolly? In the market for the same sort of shelter and this one looks packed with features

I have the TB V2 and the Lo Pro. I use the Lo Pro everywhere apart from one reservoir that gets completely battered by winds. Then the TB comes out.
When the Hide was released I thought it was a genuine contender in the light brolly market. A close mate got one on release but a pole went in a big wind. It was replaced FOC, and the same happened with the 2nd one. He got a refund and bought a TB. Now maybe he was unlucky as loads of guys rate them on here but for me that is just what I expected from Nash tbh.

For a short session like an overnighter I can't fault the tempest brolly V2.

Effortless set up and pack away, light (although the lo pro is lighter, I have no experience of this one), full protection and of course it comes as a system should you require groundsheet (the only extra I have), front/mozzy panel, overwrap etc... These all add weight, of course, but haven't found it to be heavy at all myself.

The only con I have with it is the height, but I'm a little over 6ft. Anyone shorter may have less of an issue and I can still sit up on my bedchair, it's just getting in and out constantly. Wouldn't want to be any taller than myself using it though.

I have a hide and a lo pro.
If it is going to be an open lake and blowing a gale then I would take the hide.
Normal winds and conditions would take the lo pro for speed.

Personally I would get a lo pro and a couple of storm poles for very short overnighters.

Jesper - strange question, but would you change to another?
