Raven,
I don't think I'd take the 10 degree improvement in the sleeping bag =
rating to the bank. The bulk of the warmth comes from adding another =
layer of dead air between the liner and the bag. I doubt the liner =
itself adds significant warmth. The other problem is that there are no =
industry standards for sleeping bag warmth. =20
It would be nice if the industry setup a standard like R-Value and had =
an independent third party verify it. =20
