Vango Viper – Our thoughts
We think the Vango Viper is a quality product and this is reflected in the price. The Vango Viper 500 is a good all rounder and will keep the UK camper warm at night from mid spring right through to late Autumn. Fortunately, or unfortunately, nights during the summer don’t really get any warmer than 20 °C which is ideal for the Viper 500, although we think that the Viper 750 and 100 would be too warm for use in the summer months.
Can someone let me know which is the better type of sleeping bag to buy, synthetic or down?
