Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use an Enlightened Equipment quilt?
Enlightened Equipment quilts are best used when you know the temperature is going to be relatively low. A sleeping bag will keep you warm, but a quilt is perfect for creating a warmer, more comfortable pocket of air around you in combination with a sleeping pad. Perfect for longer treks, they are incredibly lightweight when thinking about pack size.
Does Enlightened Equipment use treated down?
Enlightened Equipment does not use waterproof treated down. They say, “While both down types have their pros and cons, ultimately the situations where treated down excels are infrequent.”
Is Enlightened Equipment synthetic or down?
It depends as to which quilt you opt for as Enlightened Equipment uses mainly down, but has some synthetic models.
How much does the Enlightened Equipment Enigma quilt weigh?
The Enlightened Equipment Enigma quilt weighs 21.19 Ounces, or around 600.72g.
What is the difference between the Enlightened Equipment Revelation and Enigma quilt?
Simply put, the only real difference is the Enigma has a sewn-in footbox and the Revelation does not. This makes the Revelation more versatile and the Enigma easier to use for someone transitioning from a sleeping bag to quilt or those who like warmer feet.
