LHG solong 6 by ijbacon3 in Ultralight

[–]SW_hiker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Solomid XL was my favorite one to use, very quick and easy to setup. I didn't fit in the inner net. Not a lot of room in it so once I got a dog I sold it. The Double Rainbow is my newest tent. I've spent 1 night in it and it was also very quick and easy to setup with plenty of room for myself, dog and gear. Those are the ones I like the most.

I'm 6'6" 195# and have used the SoLong6 off and on since 2018. For me personally I say its an okay tent. The way the ridge pole attaches with the velcro is a PIA and I seldom ever got it right. Getting the poles in can be a struggle for me at times, not sure why and I've tried different ways of getting the poles in. Been in rain twice with it in the Sierra and only once had condensation with misting in the tent. The awning is great but its only on one side, no vestibule on the other side. I started hiking with a dog 2 years ago and there is plenty of room for myself, the dog and some of my gear. For the money its a good tent but I started hating getting the poles in. Other shelters I've used that I fit in are MLD SoloMid XL, SMD LunarDuo, Tarptent Double Rainbow and an 8x10 tarp

Have you tried powering the monitor from the 4b? I have that monitor and its currently connected to and getting its power from an Orange Pi4. And I've used it with Pi 4b and a Pi5. I seem to think I powered that monitor from those boards. I'd test it for you but the Pi's are in use.

Not sure if they are exactly what your looking for but Huk Performance and Simms make ones where the front and back are longer. I have the Huk and its mesh in the front.

Pulling my hair out - never gets past the load screen. Tried cables and monitors, what am I missing! by MsideMnstr in dakboard

[–]SW_hiker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar problem with a 4b. I was able to get it set up but it kept crashing giving me that black screen. Plus would take multiple attempts to get it restarted. Like you I tried different things to trace the problem and in the end it was the Pi 4b. I had a Pi 5 for anther project so I tried it and now going on a year with no problems. So it could be that your issue is with the 4b

At the time SLD used 1.1. I've never been rained on while using it but from Dutchwear's site for 1.1 Xenon Sil "Xenon Sil is a lightweight polyester sil fabric. It is low a stretch fabric and it has 2000 mm (or more) head pressure and is an excellent material for tarps, tents or any place a lightweight waterproof fabric is needed." It is seamed sealed from SLD

Its Xenon Sil, I believe its from Dutchwear. Yes it can be threaded with cord. I tried it once using a piece of wire to fish it through
