Shame it's not the 2 man one....bit low the 1 manner

Just goes to show how much we get ripped off eh....£499 originally and they can still make a profit at £150!!!!

Good price for the Kampa though.

I think the silly cheap price is cos its discontinued when its gone its gone

someone I know got one for Christmas it took 1 min and 48 seconds to set up using the supplied hand pump today about the same time to deflate etc

I so wish this was the 2 man, great bivvy

Wonder if there bringing out a mk2

Kampa have been bought out by a company called Dometic and have dropped and amended some of the tent models from 2020, so i wouldnt be surprised if the bivvy is discontinued

That's a shame

Couldn't resist the price from future and stumped up £150 for one to
have a play with.
I found a footprint (2nd under groundsheet) from Johnson Ross for
£12.99p which is a bonus but cant find a wrap for it for toffee. So if one
of you beady eyed carpers find one for sale please let me know.

Bargain hunter 🤣🤣

Too low and defo need a wrap as condensation is a big issue I heard with these....

In reply to Post #8
there are a few different wraps that fit this I read on Facebook somewhere see if I can find it again
EDIT
JUST found this >>>You can buy the Kampa Air bivvy Wraps less than half price online including postage from some shops in Germany and Italy. The original JRC TX 2G winter Wrap also fits the Kampa Air 1-man perfectly.

read there is a TFG wrap off something that fits too but cant remember what one lol

Think I'm going to take a punt on one of these - anyone manage to track down an overwrap/no for sure one which will fit?

Cheers,
James.

There isn't any I have concluded.



Saying that.. I have done over 20 nights in mine this year and haven't had any condensation or been cold once.

I am so tempted to get one of these as where I fish up on the windswept banks of the Trent the wind is soo strong you spend half your time wondering if one of the poles is going to snap

and I KNOW from using my large Kampa Air Awning on my caravan they are far superior to any metal framed tents etc
as all that can happen is the bend in a bit then pop out
shame its not taller but think for the advantages speed putting it up and down etc £150 delivered Im going to have to get one and sell off some of my gear I wont use anymore

anyone interested this seems to be the cheapest place silly cheap
LINKY POO

I ordered a 1 man from future fishing last night, can't go too wrong for £150.

Found a few wraps from europe but still at full/high prices (~£300). Seems silly when I've only paid £150 for the bivvy.

Glad to hear it does well without a wrap - read some reviews saying the condensation is terrible without. That being said I've never used a wrap on my current JRC, have only once found condensation a real issue. Normally it's just a little damp to the touch and not an issue.

truth is any single skin will get condensation in the right weather conditions even double skin
BUT !!
A lot of condensation is pilot error people that have the door done up your breathing out warm air ! and you boil a kettle all that steam !

Luckily or unluckily ? I am one of those people that get claustrophobic and so cant have the door down its always open no matter what the temp
and ventilation prevents condensation as Condensation occurs when warm air collides with cold surfaces
