Online F10 Neon UL 1 Tent One Person Tents

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

An Incredibly small pack size and an impressively light shelter, this is what we’re all about at ultralight outdoor gear.

Vango says:

F10 Project Hydrogen Neon UL is an extremely lightweight twin skin tent, weighing only 460g, with lightweight alloy poles and 7 denier fabric. The Neon UL tent fits into the smallest pack size due to its small and compact pole sections.

Our Verdict

Essentially one step up from a bivvy this is an incredibly light shelter that, when packed could actually fit inside my water bottle. The pole sections are very short, which is how it’s able to pack down so small, so this would work well for bike packers and ultramarathon runners, as well as hikers.

This is not a tent you will want to be confined to for any length of time, it’s just for sleeping in, but has benefits over a bivvy bag. Most notably as it’s 2-skinned, condensation will not be as much of an issue and you also have full weather protection. You also have a porch, so can store a small amount of gear in the vestibule.

The inner and the outer pitch at the same time, which is brilliant as it saves the inner getting wet if pitching in the rain. It’s very simple to pitch and can be done in under 5 minutes with a little practice.
