The backpacking magazines rave over these things.  Anyone here tried one?  I'm thinking it might be a good, lightweight addition to the BOB.

I don't have or have used them but I do have two Slumber Jack 10 degree bags that are super light. They have lots of nice features many others don't that cost twice as much. One of the coolest features is the foot area is shaped like a trapezoid so when you sleep on your back it doesn't feel like you're tied up at the ankles (extra room for straight up feet).

price seems reasonable.

I got one in my BOB, they are sick. Rated for 55 Deg F and wicked small. Mine is rolled up in its sack and fits in my side compartment, seriously...get one.  You won't regret it. Later.

*EDIT* Forgot to mention that they make an awesome liner for a real sleeping bag as well

Thanks, I'll give one a try.

I bought one, but I've never used it.  I've been carrying it as an emergency bag or a cover for a flannel bag, but I haven't been cold enough to need the 'extra'.
