    Cool video. These first generation Pomoly tents seem to leak quite a bit. Way too small for extended use in my opinion. I have a Pomoly Yarn plus and used it this weekend in heavy rain. Did rather well, however I found 2 pin hole leaks. Easy fix. For the price Pomoly isn't bad, not great, but it took a beating and held up.

    After spending a night in this tent, the word of the day is condensation. I have mixed feelings about it. It is small, you will get dirty crawling in it. A mini stove will cook you out of it. Being small, it is nice to reach over and light the stove from your sleeping bag though, and make coffee. Not sure if the stove made the condensation worse or what, but I felt it drip on me in the middle of the night. I let the stove go out, I didn’t run it all night,,,

      @AdventureswithSpackmann  Месяц назад +1

      Hmmm that’s tough. I usually go floorless and tend to use the Pomoly LoneWolf Hammovk hot tent. It’s rather small when you close the ends in but enough room for one. I also use the OneTigris Tigaman tent which is big for one person but I like that. Tigaman has a condensation issue though if not vented enough. The Pomoly tent is canvas so it’s great all around. But I’ve been using an instant AFrame from Walmart that I added a stove jack to. That’s my favorite. Has a floor too. Thanks for watching.

    Lol i just camped in this tent, but my floor is sewn into the tent on mine with 2 zip windows on both sides and a section that has a built in fireproof mat sewn in for the the wood stove, for 12 days straight 6 days of heavy rain 🌧 and thunderstorms on the Appalachian trail in Pennsylvania here , didn't leak one time for us . What version of the tent do you have? This is the same tent but not anything like ours .

    • @AdventureswithSpackmann
      @AdventureswithSpackmann  2 года назад

      @Neal Robinson personally if I were going hot tenting for the first time I would want a larger tent. If I had to pick one or the other, I guess as an all around tent the StoveHut has more options and is bigger. It has the awning and stove vestibule. If you don’t mind a small tent and having to seal it before using it then I would pick the Hut. Thanks for watching.

      @@nealrobinson3936 thank you so much. The stove jack sleeve is a great addition. Adds structure to the pipe from the tent(tent holds the pipe better if the hole in the stove jack is bigger than pipe) and protects the tent from heat. My favorite hot tent is my 3F UL tribal teepee hot tent. It’s been great to me so far. It’s just over $200. It’s got a ton of room. If you don’t want to spend that much money or want that much room. The cheapest hot tent from Amazon video(on my channel) shows how well that tent holds up. It fits a chair, cot and stove. It’s only 5 feet tall though. I’ve heard great things about the Octopeak and my buddy Justin from It’s Good in the Woods has several videos on it, good reviews.

    • @AdventureswithSpackmann
      @AdventureswithSpackmann  2 года назад +1

      @Erik Carey for light weight hot tenting gear I really can’t comment beside the Cheapest hot tent from Amazon. I think it weighs less than 4 pounds and it’s a nice little tent. If you want some real world reviews for light weight hot tent gear including light weight stoves go check out It’s Good in the Woods. He’s been using the mini peak(I think) for a couple seasons now and a Seek outside stove which is a light weight stove. For sleeping bag, if you don’t have one, I use a 0 degree F OutdoorVitals down filled Summit bag. I’ve been using it for almost 4 years now I think. It’s been great. For a light weight sleeping pad I use my UberLite but it has little to no R Value lol so I boost that with reflectants and that seems to work for me. But I think they make an insulated Uberlite now or get an insulated pad. Definitely a good saw. My favorite saws are silky saws and they come in a variety of sizes and weights so you can pick one that best suits you. I used to use an Agawa Canyon Boreal 21 but then I got a silky and haven’t use a bow saw since lol. But either would work. Also look into a sled. Makes it a whole lot easier to move gear and heavier gear. Alway suggest having a smoke and CO detector whenever using a heat source in a tent. Shit happens and it’s better to have it and not need it then need it and not have it.
