For sale: PHD Minimus Sleeping Bag. 800 down. Standard length. Black MX fabric outer. I asked for a short zip on the left side which cost extra, as did the MX fabric. Its been used for one 4 day trip and 2 overnight trips, always with a liner which is included. About 15 months old but been hanging up in a cupboard for about 12 months. I replaced the PHD stuffsack, which isnt waterproof, with an Exped drybag which is. This is also included. I think I paid around £220 for it including the "extras" and postage. Im looking for £140 including delivery by RM Special Next Day. Payment by paypal gift please. Thanks.

Oh I don't believe it. I've had a 'wanted' post up for one of these for the last week, and not having had any joy at all and the LAMM looming closer, I placed an order for a brand new Western Mountaineering bag this afternoon.

No worries gee cee, I have a couple of WM bags and they are superb. But my ever growing collection of bags and quilts requires trimming down a bit........

What are the temp/weight specs for this?

The temp rating is given on the PHD site as +5 and the weight is 470grms. The weight I can confirm but I havent used it enough to really give any indication as to the lowest temp it could be used. These "comfort" values are somewhat subjective figures as I have used another PHD bag, which was rated at 0, down to -7 and was very comfortable. There are various reviews online regarding this bag as well as the very informative information available on PHD Designs website. Cheers.
