OneTigris TETRA Ultralight Tent 1-2 Person, Waterproof, 3 Season, Ideal for Camping Hiking Trekking Backpacking Bushcraft

I definitely did not NEED another tent - I've purchased SO many in the last 3 years. Most recently a Blacktail 2 Hotel less than 2 months ago. I came across this Tetra 160. I looked at it for a few weeks knowing I shouldn't. But also knowing I eventually would. Black Friday pricing dropped, and I went for it. I've only been able to take it out once so far - even had the pleasure of putting it up the first time in the dark. And I'm already pretty sure this is gonna be my Go-To for a while. For my motocamping, this is a great, single wall, 2p tipi tent with a floor/mesh sleeping area and a large vestibule. It's lightish and smallish when packed. Easy to put up / take down, and with minimal (any?) fiddle factor - double walled tipis where you have to string up the inner mesh and then the outer fly are no fun. The venting is pretty brilliant, and also raises the "base" of the tipi so that there is plenty of room for a 6' person to not have to worry about head or feet touching the walls, or that typical, oppressive, tipi/pyramid wall-in-your-face feeling. Kudos to 1TG for using shock cord locks for the door keeper toggles. This is genius, and I've only seen it on one other tent I own (Naturehike VIK1). I just received a carbon pole extender to use my carbon trekking pole instead of the included aluminum pole. Before the pole extender arrived, I also came across (and ordered!) a custom .710 carbon tent pole from Ruta Locura. This is not to say there's anything wrong with the included aluminum pole - it is more than adequate. To compare the Tetra 160 to my new Blacktail 2 Hotel: • $180 vs the BT $300 • 4lb vs the BT 6lb+ • Very similar square footage (leaving out the seldom used secondary/small vestibule of the BT) Tetra 160 is 31' (94x47) and 31' vestibule (62' total) BT is 33' (90x52) and 28' main/large vestibule (61' total - secondary/small vestibule adds 9') • One pole vs the BT four poles - definitely less fiddly to put up / take down. Can use trek pole or stick (or even top loop) if wanted/needed. • Better for windy conditions (it's a tipi!). The BT, sadly (oddly), does NOT have fly/pole velcro. Needs on a future Tetra: • Two corner poles should be removable. For packing on a moto, smaller/unfixed packs better than longer/fixed. The Tetra packs down fairly small, but the built-in poles keep it from being packed down to easily half its current pack size. There's really no reason each corner couldn't be a double-ended, spiked pole, held in place with grommets on each of the corner straps (or again, sticks if needed). I typically stuff my tents and carry the poles separately (in an area where they won't break if the bike is dropped), so adding the two shorty poles to the single main pole would be great. • A full suite of mid-tent guyout points (4 corners, 4 mids) as is usually found on most tipi/pyramid tents. The Tetra has 4 oddly placed guyouts - 1 left mid, 1 right mid, 1 left-forward corner, 1 right-forward corner. Odd in that those are the only 4, and they are biased towards the front/door of the tent. I do plan on pitching it front (door) into the wind, so this setup should be mostly fine, but if the wind direction changes, I would like guyouts keeping the middle of the tent from bowing in from all directions. In the meantime, I have a set of GripClips that I purchased for the Blacktail's lack of fly/pole velcro (why, Big Agnes??), and they should work fine for the 4 "missing" guyouts on the Tetra. Wants on a future Tetra: • Gear loft / light attachment points. There are NONE. This could have been easy, even using, say, the mesh storage organizer from 1TG's WORKTOP table. Heck, go big - one in the mesh area and one in the vestibule! But minimum would be to have internal loops where each of the 8 guyout points SHOULD be. The mesh door keeper toggles are usable, but not ideal. For now, I'll be putting a 1TG Camping Lanyard (loops) over the pole, with half in the mesh and half in the vestibule (more kudos to 1TG for the half inch loop strap vs everyone else's one inch straps). And if I use the GripClips they will have internal loops as well. • Colors. The Urban Grey is much better than all of the silly/bright colors used in most tents. But I would have expected Coyote/Khaki/Green choices from 1TG. Anyway, that's way too many words to say "This tent is great!" Hopefully my [censored] moto shop will give me MY bike back soon (loaner in the pics) so I can get back to my regularly scheduled motocamping with this fantastic tent!

OneTigris Tetra review So I decided the time had come to get a tent with a bit more room. After a searching on the Internet & YouTube I found the OneTigris Tetra 160. All the tests & comments seemed positive and as I have some OneTigris gear already I thought I’d give it a go. The price wasn’t too bad and delivery was very quick. Having just spent a long weekend in it, here are my first thoughts. Build quality is excellent, no loose threads or wobbly hems. I like the reflective strips on the guyline points. Helps find the tent in the dark with a torch. I bought a 1.8 x 2.4m cheapo blue tarp to go underneath, as a floor sheet protector/lobby floor. It’s exactly the right size. Putting the tent up is straightforward enough. Everything fits. The pegs are nice (the loop knots were all loose but it only took a minute to tighten them up). Do not try & grasp the pegs to pull them out of the ground, you’ll hurt yourself. Use the loops. I made a ‘peg pusher’ rather than use a hammer. A palm-sized block of wood will do. No burring over and/or sharp edges on the pegs then. The central pole snaps together nicely and is confidence inspiring. No need for it to be elasticated inside, I think. I did feel it necessary to replace the guyline on the back-middle (above the mesh panel) with a longer one, as I think it pulls the back out to a better angle. The anti condensation system seems to work very well, I had no problems on three nights of ‘hot in the day, cool at night’ weather. We even had some light showers and not a drop got in. I like the ‘door’ and how it can be set up as a wind deflector or sunshade/rain shelter. As for the amount of room, as has been said already, there’s plenty for one person plus gear - two would be a squeeze! Packing up is the reversal of assembly and it all fits nicely into the stuff sack. Take care with the rigid inserts on either end of the long mesh ventilation strip (at the back) make sure they ‘go with the roll’, if you see what I mean. It’s very light (I didn’t weigh it, if you want stats, watch the review on YouTube by Luke of The Outdoor Gear Review). So far though, I would say I definitely recommend this tent. I hope this helps you with any decision making!! After the latest trip. Conditions, warm in the day, getting colder at night. Light winds. Yes, there was definitely a condensation issue. No problem for a solo camper like me. Avoiding the inside surfaces might be more of an issue if there are two of you. It did chuck it down with rain on one night. No leaks.

excellent

Da tempo uso prodotti della casa OneTigris con grande soddisfazione, prodotti presentati, duraturi e pratici. Questa tenda ne è una dimostrazione, prodotto leggero ad un solo palo interno di sostegno con perimetro picchettato, materiale resistente e flessibile, comprovato sotto un bel temporale con forti raffiche di vento. Le aperture 2 superiori ed 1 inferiore creano una ventilazione ottimale per il riposo, riducendo al minimo la condensa, qualche alone di umidità ci sarà, ma poca roba rispetto ad altre tende di diversi fornitori. Lo spazio abitabile risulta molto comodo largo e spazioso, per 2 persone più attrezzature, nel caso si può depositare del materiale nello spazio di lavoro per così dire, sempre all'interno della tenda. Che dire prodotto incredibile, fedele compagna in molte escursioni, la Consiglio fortemente.

Got a YouTube channel pine badger outdoors and I have a few tents but this is my favorite summer light tent.
