Product Information
Full details
The Exped Airmat Lite Plus 5 is designed for backpackers and trekkers prioritizing a compact pack size and lightweight gear. Its key benefit is providing comfortable sleep support with minimal bulk, making it ideal for multi-day adventures. A potential caveat is its 5cm thickness, which may offer less insulation in very cold conditions compared to thicker mats. This inflatable sleeping mat features a durable 75D polyester outer, a flat inflation valve, and comes in a convenient pack size.

Troubleshooting
Mat is not fully inflating
Ensure the R-valve is fully closed and sealed. Check for any debris obstructing the valve. If inflating by mouth, ensure a consistent air supply.
Mat is slowly deflating overnight
Check that the R-valve is completely sealed. Inspect the mat for any small punctures; repair with a patch kit if necessary. Ensure the mat is not near a heat source that could cause air expansion/contraction.
Difficulty deflating the mat
Ensure the R-valve is fully open. Roll the mat firmly from the end opposite the valve to expel all air. You may need to repeat rolling.
