All these add on extras. The Tempest is a great product. Like I have said a million times before. I love my V1 brolly.
I have been looking at the 100T to replace it but with all the extras it's just a bliming p#ss take.
I just can't justify that amount on a brolly system these days.
I think I will be looking at the new Wychwood brolly system this year at half the price.

I have lost the will to live when it comes to the Tempest. Brolly aside, it has to be the most confusing and over engineered range of shelters & accessories on the market .... I think Trakker has lost the plot with these and I just cant be arsed to try and figure it all out. For that reason alone If i wss looking to buy I would rather buy the Cyprinus or Quest versions.

I completely agree. Looking at it from a business perspective their marketing strategy is genius though. Modular systems make them the most money. People are wowed by the setup speed of the tempest (me included) & then buy the add-ons to make it into a fully bivvy. Factoring in the time to tension the skull cap right & there's probably 30 seconds difference to setting up a pram-hood. I personally wouldn't buy another.

I know exactly what you mean. Absolutely love my V1 but time to move on I think. I'm sure I can manage to go back to a brolly system no problem.
After all, I have spent the last thirty years under them with out a problem. Might even go back to a pram hood as you say. Not a huge amount of difference in putting up in the big scheme of things and once it's up, it's up.
I can pick both up for half the price of the 100T with all the added bits.

I bought the 100T last year and was very impressed with the setup speed. Its outrageous. And great for overnighters. Also excellent cover with no add ons.
However, where I really agree with you is the add ons. Start
Putting on skull cap wraps and infill panels you might as well buy a pramhood. Now they have utility fronts and wraps.
I will stick to my two man Cayman for that. Goes up in seconds.

i have the bloxx 2G compact and it fits in all the tight swims on my syndicate its only got a slightly bigger foot print than the atom it replaced. but it has more useable space and better ventilation with a bit of head room on top
