Hokey, but works well.
Big Agnes Pumphouse Pad Pump
May 27, 2008
First opinion: hokey... couldn't possibly pump up a pad. Then I tried it.. Still hokey, but it works! It takes me an average of 12 'full bag' pumps to fill up a normal length pad. The process is: 1) attach end of bag to pad, 2) fluff open end of bag, 3) seal/roll bag until bag is 'firm', 4) press as much air out as you can, 5) roll again until firm, 6) press out rest of air, 7) unroll and repeat. I bought/compared this against the Exped pillow pump. The pillow pump gives you more of a feeling of pumping, but its more work. When you're tired after a long day hiking/paddeling (we used these in the BWCA), the BA bag/pump was 10% overall less work than the pillow/foam Exped pump.
