It Falls Short BUT I Love It - Helikon-Tex Windrunner Windshirt Review


What is the WindRunner shirt from Helikon-Tex?
It's an ultralight, Nylon long sleeve shirt that looks more like a jacket, it features a DWR coating and was designed to block wind and LIGHT rain.

This is Luke's Agenda Free Review.

Helikon-Tex Windrunner Windshirt Review

Materials :
Windpack Nylon - I haven’t found any specifics about this material other than it is a tightly woven nylon 

YKK Zippers 

Sizes : X-Small to XX-Large 

Colors : Lots of options : Coyote, Alpha Green, Black, Shadow Grey and some camo colors. 

Price : Retail price is $70 - watch out for some sites, Military 1st is selling this for $113 which is a complete ripoff. 

Review Pros :

Quality -  There are no issues with loose threads, the stitching is perfect and in general, everything looks great.

Ultralight 

Very small pack size

Wind Resistant - does a great job of blocking breezes but I wouldn’t call this windproof.  

Water resistant - Definitely not waterproof but for a quick run through the rain it will bead and run off.  You’ll have to reapply the DWR over time and it’s worth doing so in my opinion. 

Ventilation is very good - you have vents under the arms and you can open up the pockets for additional airflow. 

I like the Practical design of the shirt - there’s nothing fancy or gimmicky here.

Holds in some body heat which is nice in colder conditions. 

Holds in some heat without being exceptionally hot - I’m someone who runs how and I really appreciate that.  

High quality materials 

Review Cons :

No Athletic fit available - when wearing the shirt, it simply hangs off of your shoulders and doesn’t have any sort of taper.  In other words, it would look a bit more flattering if there was a waist taper.

The Sizing runs large - I normally wear a medium to large and I had to get a small for this to fit correctly. Even with a small, there is enough space underneath for a sweater.  I would suggest to Helkion-Tex to reexamine their sizing as it’s off.  I have the Wolfhound jacket from HT as well and the sizing was really off on it. 

Pulling the shirt over your head can be difficult

As I mentioned, this is wind resistant but I wouldn't call it windproof by any means. In stronger gusts, unfortunately I don’t have a rating for you but in stronger gusts you will feel the wind coming through the materials.   There are other windbreakers that are out on the market that work substantially better than this but there is a trade off and that’s weight. 

Fragile material -

FIDO Tent :

LiteFighter is a company that over the years has impressed me a great deal; not only with their products but with the way that they handle themselves.  If you are curious as to what I mean, I have a number of videos concerning their products and the company.

It’s the FIDO AI 2 person tent system.

What does FIDO mean?

Think about to the old military Pup tents, this is based on a next generation military tent and it’s a play on words…FIDO.  

Speaking of the military system that this is based upon, I have reviewed this previously, the LiteFighter Individual Shelter System.  It’s the best military tent that I have ever used and when you combine it with the Cold Weather system add-on, you have a 3 and 4 season tent that can handle just about anything that you can throw at it.  Watch my reviews on these products - it’s an incredible combination that’s unlike anything out on the market today.

I know that sounds like a pitch but it’s not; I don’t do sells, I don’t care if you buy it, or this…all I do is test out gear and tell and show you why something is great or why something isn’t worth your money.

Anyways, the focus of this video is the FIDO AI 2p Tent system and it begins now.

General FIDO Information Link : https://litefighter.com/fido-series/


Weight : (Tuff Sack, Cold Weather Kit, Inner Tent, Rainfly, Groundsheet, Poles, Stakes, Accessory Kit)    9.9 lbs
Trail Weight :  (Inner Tent, Rainfly, Poles, Stakes)    5.9 lbs

Packed Dimensions : 19” x 8”
Setup Dimensions : 90″ x 56″ 

Multiple Ways to Setup :
- Inner tent alone
- Inner tent with Fly
- Inner tent, with cold weather kit and fly
- Fly and Groundsheet - hasty hooch setup
- Inner and the cold weather kit without a fly.

EVERNEW DX Titanium Multi-Fuel Stove Set - Review

Fuels : Alcohol, Solid Fuel, Biomass (wood, sticks, etc).

Materials : Titanium 

Alcohol Stove Capacity : 2.3oz (70ml)

Weight : 3oz for the entire kit

Packed Dimensions : 3.4 x 2.8 x 3.3” 
Setup : It’s about 7” tall

Cost : At the time of filming, $55 

Versions
There is a version of this kit that doesn’t include the alcohol stove and it is about $8 less expensive at the time of filming.

Test Results with Denatured Alcohol
With Spreader Plate : Boiled 2 cups of water, 16oz : 4:35
Without Spreader Plate : Boiled 2 cups of water : 4:30
2oz of fuel w/ spreader lasted : 9:25
2oz of fuel without spreader lasted : 9:30

Pros :
Very light weight

Very compact 

For a complete Titanium stove System, the price is great

Good wind protection

Alcohol Stove is fairly efficient - as efficient as one of these stoves can be.

Does an amazing job of focusing the flames and heat up towards your pot or cup

Cools very quickly

Very stable platform for your cooking experience. 

Easy to ignite with matches or a long lighter

Note : I have a very popular video that goes over the pros and cons of using an alcohol stove which you will find interesting.

Cons
Because of the way that the flames erupt from the stove, it will heat up the handles of your cup or pot.  You will have to prepare for this so that you can lift the pot from the stove either with a bail handle that stays standing up above the flames or with some sort of mit, wash cloth, etc

Some warping will take place

Titanium is a soft metal & can be bent easily - because of this it is advised that you get yourself some sort of protective case. 

Nonsensical if you plan to use only solid fuel - there are much smaller, much lighter weight solid fuel stoves or you can just build a small platform

Doesn't make sense as a wood stove 

Turbo Plate does little

No simmer ability

I mentioned that the good wind resistance, it’s not great and in windy situations, an additional wind screen would be highly recommended to ensure a high level of efficiency. 

Alcohol is not an efficient fuel…make sure to check out my video on the Truth about using alcohol stoves

No way to easily put out the stove
No storage bag included

OneTigris Tetra Tent - Larger Version - First Look and Preview 

What it is : The Tetra line of tents are square shaped tipi tents that are made by OneTigris.  These are budget friendly tents that come in two sizes;

This is the larger version.

Versions : Larger version is called the 160 and the smaller version is called the 130.  

Color : Urban Grey

Packed Size : 17.3” x 6.3”

Setup Size : 5ft 3” tall x 7.2ft deep x 7.8ft wide

Materials : 20D Silicone and PU Coated Nylon 
YKK zippers
aluminum pole

Waterproof rating : 3000mm

Weight : 4lbs 

Capacity : 2 Person

Single Wall Tent 

Price : $180 for the 160 larger version.

What’s included : 
Tetra Tent
Stuff Sack
12 tent stakes 
4 guy lines
aluminum set up pole

Thoughts and Impressions :
- Unlike the smaller version of the Tetra, I haven’t used this one yet.  This tent is going into testing now and more is to come.  With that being said, here are my thoughts so far.
- Price is excellent
- There is plenty of space - two cots for sure.  A place for one person.
- Very small form factor - doesn’t take up much space in pack
- Fairly light weight
- Overall excellent quality of the shelter
- I like the colors of the tent

Lots of vents - I was very impressed with condensation control even with the tent sealed up and it was pouring freezing rain outside.

Setting up the tent is SUPER EASY and is straight forward which isn’t always the case when it comes to a tipi tent.  This is a square, not an octagon shape - you’ll get a good pitch easily and won’t have to make many adjustments once you have it staked and the pole centered
I love the fact that a pole is included

Tent stakes featured corded pulls that absolutely suck and in fact, when testing out the smaller version recently, I was breaking down the tent and one of the corded pulls ripped out when removing the stake from the ground and I ended up slicing my finger on the cord hook.  These will have to be replaced if you purchase this tent; you can use the stakes but the pulls feature a type of cordage that doesn’t hold knots very well.  

The smaller version of this tent has been waterproof so far….I suspect this version will be too. 

Porch is nice but not the most useful in rain due to the shape.  If you are to use this tent in the rain, I would recommend partially covering the front door with a tarp so you have a place to sit, cook and get out of the weather.  

Tent inner is included which is going to be nice for those who don’t want to have issues with spiders and bugs.

Tetra Tent Info :
What it is : The Tetra line of tents are square shaped tipi tents that are made by OneTigris.  These are budget friendly tents that come in two sizes;

Versions : Smaller version is called the 130 and the larger version is called the 160.  

The Smaller tent doesn’t feature an inner and doesn’t come with a setup pole but the larger one does and includes an integrated inner tent and it can’t be removed. The larger version also features a snow skirt

Color : Urban Grey

Packed Size : 15.7” x 5.9”

Setup Size : 4.3ft tall x 7.2ft deep x 7.5ft wide

Depth from the Pole : 3.6ft

Materials : 20D Silicone and PU Coated Nylon 

YKK zippers

Waterproof rating : 3000mm

Weight : 2.4lbs 

Capacity : 2 Person

Single Wall Tent 

Price : $130 for the 130 Small version.

What’s included : 
- Tetra Tent
- Stuff Sack
- 12 tent stakes 
- 4 guy lines 

Thoughts and Impressions :

Price is excellent

There is plenty of space - two cots for sure.  A place for one person.

Small form factor - doesn’t take up much space in pack

Light weight

Excellent quality of the shelter

I've been impressed with condensation control even with the tent sealed up & it was pouring freezing rain outside.

Set up is EASY & is straight forward. 

No pole is included & I wish that one was. To set this up you will need a pole that is at least 4.3ft long

Tent stakes featured corded pulls that absolutely suck and in fact, one ripped out when removing and I ended up slicing my finger on the cord hook.  These will have to be replaced if you purchase this tent; you can use the stakes but the pulls feature a type of cordage that doesn’t hold knots very well.  

Tent has been waterproof so far

Porch is nice but not the most useful in rain due to the shape.  If you are to use this tent in the rain, I would recommend partially covering the front door with a tarp so you have a place to sit, cook and get out of the weather.  

Those are my thoughts and impressions so far with my limited use; this tent is going into testing now and my full review will be coming up in the future.  So far, I love what I see here especially for the price….my only grips are the stake pulls which is super minor and a lack of included pole.

I will have a video of the larger version coming up soon so if you have questions concerning it, they will be addressed shortly.

DOD Outdoors Sugoi Fully Adjustable Chair 

What it is : What I have here today is a Japanese foldable chair that has some unique aspects to it. First off, the seating material is made from cotton and second, the chair is impressive adjustable.  It can be titled forward, backward and has 4 height adjustment levels.

Dimensions Stored : 16” tall x 14” wide x 2” deep 

Weight limit : 220lbs

Materials : Aluminum frame with nylon plastic, Cotton Canvas seat, and 600D Polyester reinforcements

Weight : 5lbs with the storage case

Available Colors : 
Tan 
Olive Green
Black

Price : At the time of filming, the chair is $99 on Amazon

Review Pros :
The quality is really good
The cotton is spark resistant
Very comfortable -
Large seating area
4 levels of adjustment
You can angle the seat forward or backward which is nice for when the ground isn’t flat or when you are going to be working at a table
Easy to assemble - impressive frame.  I’ve never seen anything quite like it
Fairly lightweight for what this chair is capable of. This is a car camping chair, not a backpacking one.
Pockets on the sides that are useable 
Storage bag has a nice carry handle which is comfortable. 
Back of the chair pocket

Review Cons :
Setup Instructions are in Japanese only but the company does offer English instructions online and in the future English instructions are said to be included. Or so the representative on Amazon says. 
The frame sleeves on the seat are a bit small and you will find that it can take a bit of work to get the frame poles to slide in
Outside of those points, I don’t have anything negative to say about this chair.  

Not a Con, Not a Pro :
When talking about price, for me I see it in the middle, it is definitely pricey but not overly so when you consider the size, materials, and functionality.  When you compare this to other camp chairs, there are plenty less functional chairs that cost a lot less and there are plenty less functional chairs that cost a lot more.  Know what I mean? 

Summary :
When it comes to foldable camp seating options there are plenty of them; this one here is an excellent option that I can easily recommend.  

Remember the purpose of this chair, it’s too heavy for backpacking but for car camping and so on, it’s perfect.  

It’s easy to setup, has some great features, excellent materials and is fully adjustable.  Adjustable in ways that most chairs are not.

Next Generation Workhorse! - NiteCore NU33 Headlamp Review


As many are aware of, my go to headlamp for countless years has been the NiteCore NU32; it’s a workhorse, performs well, but wasn’t perfect.  

The NU33 headlamp builds upon the overall design of the NU32 and corrects the issues that it had.

Review Cons :
Head strap comes loose over time
Non-removable battery may be a con for some 
Lack of a dimming option for the red mode - it’s bright which I like but there are times when a lower setting would be beneficial 

Summary :
After running this headlamp for the last couple of weeks I have to say that I really like it.  It doesn’t have any glaring problems, the performance is good, the weight is good and the price is also good.

To be honest, after reviewing the terrible NiteCore UT27 I wasn’t sure that I would take a look another one of their headlamps….seriously, that headlamp was absolutely terrible but being that I liked the NU32 so much I gambled on this one and I’m pleasantly surprised.
