Sonik AXS 2 man looks good and you can get inner capsules for them.

I use a pair of those exact 11 foot 1.75lb tc for barbel fishing on smaller rivers/tighter swims. Caught barbel up to double figures on them. They feel short in the handle IMO, which doesn't bother me at all I'll add. The action and quality of them is very good for the cost. Nice through action, proven to have enough power to steer an angry barbel away from snags.

My 365 has the zipped-in inner layers but is probably the one that people consider being too 'short' to really get tucked into. I have no issue with it at 6 feet tall as if I ever put my head inside a sleeping bag it seems to damp up quickly by breathing into the bag. TBH, If I'm fishing in weather so cold that I need to be burying my head, I'll have a thermal cover on that can be pulled over my head but not have to put my head inside the bag. Picture shows bag length of mine and do excuse the non carp pillow, was a 'bench test'
I believe the current 365 has a full length top cover

Solar ones are fine but can be a pain to get line into when hands are cold and position you use them in is limited by your rod blanks thickness. The Delkim ones are great if you don't need a clip that holds the line tight and fit anywhere on the rod. I use both mentioned and prefer the Delkim. Don't think £15 for a set of 3 is over the top tbh...

You'll get an RLX 6 Superlight and Trakker 365 bag for your 300 budget I reckon. Nice combo. I have the same, comfy & plenty warm enough
Edit - I did look at the Gardner carp duvets but there's not much material underneath you, it's all on top. Didn't like that part of it.

Interesting. When I had SMX's the battery life was way longer than your RMX. Certainly lasted a season with plenty of action to the rods.
One thing I'm sure you can answer, do they have a low battery warning as I couldn't see it mentioned in the blurb anywhere?

Just bought some. £148.50 from AD. Seem decent but not used yet. Have had SMX mk2's before and could not fault them and no issue with battery life or receiver range. So can't imagine why the RMX won't be good.
