Has anyone else found the Solar SP c-tech memory foam sleep system to be cold too? I feel the cold nowadays and it went to about 4-5 degrees I think and I was cold with both layers on. I think my trakker 365 is warmer than the Solar bag.

Just to prove we are all different I HATED my Nash SS

in theory it sounded wonderful and I could not wait to get one but the reality was quite different
its never in a million years gonna be as good as a separate bag and bed IMHO I have had lots of beds and bags before and since all brilliant

Please remember OPINIONS ARE LIKE BUMHOLES WE ALL HAVE ONE

Both sleep systems and seperates are versatile , it's whatever you find best. I far prefer a sleep system ,I find it more comfortable and plenty warm enough. I use the 5 season Nash one, and have a chub bedchair cover for the depths of winter . My SS gives me everything I need for 12 months if the year ,just as a bed and bag seperate setup will if you have the right bag(s).

Nash Indulgence 5 Season with shroud.

Very cold and wet, sleeping outside - both covers on and waterproof shroud
Very cold - both covers on
Mild - zip off top cover
Hot - zip off both covers, use 3 season cover as a sheet.
Hot and wet and sleeping outside - both covers off and just waterproof shroud

What separate set up is more flexible than that?

Had both SS and non SS over the years - and seperate bed and bag has so many more advantages and much greater flexibility

As for me, I’m more about sleep systems. It’s always more comfortable and healthier for your back. I’ve spent a lot of nights under the sky, so I know what I’m saying. Tbh, during such trips, I sometimes miss my lovely bed, which I’ve been looking for so long and finally found on https://bedselection.co.uk/. I have problems with my back, so it was really tough to find a suitable mattress for me. I’ve read some guides and have chosen the proper one. So I always try to take care of my back, even if I go overnight fishing. Health is the most valuable thing we have.

Initially I thought a Sleep system made perfect sense
and I bought one but after using it for a fair few sessions I decided the disadvantages far outweighed the advantages and sold it
and I would never ever !! buy another sleep system

I far and away prefer the greater versatility of a separate bedchair bag and cover
