The Firelight 450 is a high quality, lightweight down sleeping bag that is ideal for use in temperatures down to just below 0°C.
Manufactured wholly in Poland, the Firelight 450 is filled with the famed Polish white Goose down that is 100% ethically recovered. The down has a fill-power of 900 cubic inches as measured by the EU norm (and is equivalent to 970 cubic inches using the US standard).
The Firelight 450 has a full length zip that lies on the top of the bag. The zip is protected by a single baffle. There is a neck collar that can be adjusted to close completely around the neck to provide a complete seal.
The Firelight 450 comes in three sizes, all come with a left zip only and is supplied with a compact stuff sack and a large storage bag.

TEMPERATURE RATINGS
EN13537
0˚C Comfort
-5˚C Lower limit
-21˚C Extreme
The comfort rating represents the lowest temperature at which a standard adult FEMALE can have a comfortable night’s sleep.
The lower limit represents the lowest temperature at which a standard adult MALE is deemed able to have a comfortable night’s sleep.
The extreme limit is a nonsense and best ignored. We really don't see any usefulness in this measure.
We like the EN13537 ratings at Lightwave. Going by our own extensive experience, we feel they accurately reflect the temperature limitations of each sleeping bag for a comfortable night’s sleep. Individual tolerances may allow some people to go beyond these figures, but we believe this is at the discretion of the user and is not something to be claimed by us.
