WHAT IS ARL?

ARL (Air-Fiber-3D-Fiber) is a robust, three-dimensional synthetic fiber insulation from Grüezi bag®. Its fiber structure creates volume and insulating air spaces that help retain body heat inside the sleeping bag. It is particularly suitable for sleeping bags that need to be used reliably even in damp, condensation-prone, and changing conditions, for example, when camping, in motorhomes, caravans, roof tents, or while traveling.

The major advantage of synthetic fibers is that they absorb very little moisture and remain functional even in high humidity. Their three-dimensional structure also promotes moisture wicking, contributing to a comfortable sleeping environment.

ARL is also robust and easy to care for. This makes the insulation particularly suitable for products that are used regularly and need to function reliably under varying outdoor conditions.

The result is a versatile synthetic fiber insulation for real camping and travel conditions - in dry nights as well as in high humidity, condensation and changeable weather.

WHAT IS A CARBON HEATING ELEMENT?

A sleeping bag doesn't generate heat itself, but rather retains some of the body heat. If the feet are already very cold due to exhaustion or illness, it can therefore take longer for the foot area to warm up comfortably. The carbon heating element is located precisely where many people first feel the cold.

This additional heat source is powered by a standard power bank and can selectively heat the lower area of ​​the insert.

• Within about 15 minutes, the hip bag becomes comfortably warm and the heating element can be switched off. After that, the sleeping bag retains the heat and ensures a pleasant climate throughout the night.
• Heating time: With a 5.000 mAh power bank, the operating time is approximately 1,8 hours, and with a 10.000 mAh power bank, approximately 3,6 hours.
• The heating output is set to a maximum of approximately 40 °C (104 °F) to prevent sweating and the resulting moisture that could lead to further chilling.
• The heating element is integrated into the footrest so that the heat is distributed evenly from bottom to top and there is sufficient distance from the body to ensure a restful sleep.
• The heating part is washable and can be washed along with the feeder.

• The heating element should not be used by people who cannot reliably determine whether a temperature is too hot or too cold. Small children and people with impaired temperature perception, for example due to certain illnesses, are more sensitive to heat and cold.
• Do not throw power banks or batteries into a fire. There is a risk of explosion.
• Avoid contact between battery packs and metallic objects such as rings, screws, or similar items. There is a risk of short circuits.
