This pad is rated for 15 degrees. Can you comfortable use this insulated pad in warm weather? Like can you sleep on it in the mid 60's? or does it cause it to be too hot? I live in the south east and temps range from 30 in the spring and fall to 70 in the summer, just want to see if it can work the whole range.

Thanks everyone, As James said i would buy the non insulated to save money however I will be using the pad in weather sub 45. So i think it will be worth it now to get the insulated to have the full range. Thanks everyone for your killer help!

Great question and looks like some good answers. The pad will not make you hot. Stick with the insulated version if you plan to camp below 45°. It will still perform great in warm weather.

Actually, the amazing thing about this pad is it covers a wide variety of temperatures. Since the primaloft insulation hangs from the top of the pad, by simply flipping the pad upside down the insulation lays flat and you're much more comfortable in warmer temps. Basically, keep it maroon side up for warmth, or flip it over to have the black side up for warmer nights. The black side up is essentially the equivalent of BA air core pads without insulation.

Yeah, you can use this pad in warm weather, though if you are going to be using it primarily in warm weather I would buy the non-insulated version and save yourself some money. But, in terms of use it would be no big deal to use it in any temp range
