Blizzard Survival Tube Silver
£26.99
The Blizzard Survival Tube is essentially a 2 person version of the Blizzard Survival Bag, see related products below. It has a drawcord at both ends so the occupants can be side by side or top and tail. It provides complete shelter for one or two people, and enables a casualty to be re-warmed by putting another person into the Tube along side them. The Tube is also suitable for emergency bivouacs, and for protecting casualties against the cold. Using Reflexcell Technology ™(see below for more details) the Blizzard Survival Tube is nearly twice as warm per weight as a down sleeping bag. Its tiny pack size and high performance make it ideal for emergency use and the kind of thing everyone should have in their pack. The Blizzard products are also re useable and have no shelf life, vacuum packed when new, but once used they can be repacked into the nylon case (spare part) to be only slightly larger than when vacuumed packed.
Every group leader should have a survival tube and for those on lightweight adventures one tube between 2 is lighter than a survival bag each.
Size (vacuum packed): 20 x 11 x 4.5 cm.
Volume: 1 litre.
Weight: 540 grams.
Size (unpacked): length: 2.35 metres

Reflexcell Technology ™
The idea of Reflexcell™ was conceived 15 years ago when the founder and managing director of Blizzard Survival, Derek Ryden, realized that outdoor enthusiasts and professionals needed something more effective than plastic bivvy bags and lighter than conventional sleeping bags.
Reflexcell is a triple layer corrugated foil blanket that combines the foil's heat reflecting properties with the insulation of the trapped air to produce a foil blanket/sleeping bag hybrid. Reflexcell™, is a super-lightweight material that provides unprecedented thermal performance in the most demanding conditions.
