Pinguin Echo 1 DAC Tent 1 person

Description

Ultralight tent with one side entrance. Thanks to its packability, the tent is very popular among cyclists, motorcyclists, and other enthusiasts of ultralight and compact gear. 

Technical specifications

• DAC Featherlite NSL 7001 T6 duraluminum poles with a diameter of 8.5 mm and 7 mm
• Flysheet water column 4,000 mm
• Water column 10,000 mm
• Seams are NOT taped; expansion threads are used
• Weight 1.65 kg
• Weight without inner tent 1.15 kg

Ventilation
It is located at the top of the side walls and at the foot end. The vent hoods are shaped so they are not pushed down by the wind. This prevents water from getting in even during rain with strong winds.

Design 
The tent is based on the principle that the pole structure is threaded through sleeves on the outside of the flysheet. The flysheet and the inner tent (hung from the inside of the flysheet) are pitched simultaneously once the poles are inserted. The main advantage of this design is that the inner tent can be detached from the flysheet, and the flysheet can be pitched on its own as a single-skin tent without a floor. Other advantages include:

• fast setup
• when pitching in the rain, the inner tent does not get wet

Pitching
We pitch the flysheet by threading the pole through the sleeve. Insert the pole ends into the brass eyelets on the webbing loops along the bottom edge and raise the short segments at the foot end. The tent is not freestanding; it must be anchored with at least a minimal number of pegs (4 pcs). On the first pitch, hang the inner tent onto the loops on the inside of the flysheet. Finally, tension the flysheet using the plastic buckles at the bottom edge of the tent, or use the guy lines as needed.
