I don't keep up with bivvies at all, but I saw that carpology video about the solar spider compact, looks like some really good features, if they would only make a bigger version with a wrap that extends a bit more it would be perfect. Is this likely to happen?

Solar will release a new bivvy in 2023. Looks a lot like this one, so maybe suits your preferences.

I watched that at lunchtime, looks a decent bit of kit. Not too expensive for just the shelter either :-)
Not sure if I'd prefer this or the Fox frontier Lite

I just asked that question on the other page talking about this.
it would be perfect if the bedchair didn't touch the sides but as it does (according to the new video ) I can't buy it because that would stress me out too much.
Please make a slightly bigger version solar..

it might not be quicker..I just watched the video and that was quick to set up.
I like the 100t but the material is soooo thin and condensation is horrendous.
I don't have a 100t but my nephew does and it gets really wet inside.

We all seem to experience that differently.
I like the material as it keeps it.nice and light and dries quickly. Prefer it to my aquatex bivvies now.
And I never notice any condensation. Though I always have the skull cap attached and have only used the infil twice in 2 years.

The skull cap makes a world of difference on the Tempest. When released I thought it was a gimmick but it's anything but that and I feel if using a Tempest brolly the skull cap is essential

well it depends on what size bed you have if it touches the sides or not
they state the size ??
- Dimensions 2.70cm x 1.50cm x 1.60cm
in my case I have a Solar CH08 Bedchair and its 205cm x 80cm
so no problem big gap either end
my mate is in his fishing the Trent as we speak temps been down to 3c and he has had no condensation problems and is using it with the wrap too it says its very dark inside with the wrap on he loves it

I do. I didn't have as many issues as some with it before I got the skull cap but the ones I did have were resolved by putting a cap on. I've since switched to the Solar Undercover brolly which is great but if I go back to a Tempest I will definitely get with the cap, probably the cap wrap as that looks like a quality addition
