Would the SB 35 be warmer than the Mountain Hardwear Phantom 32? The MH has better EN ratings (lower Temperature), but has 1 oz less fill weight (10 oz vs 11).

Gerrit@Gerrit - I would not say the Kelty SB 35 is warmer than the MH Phantom 32, as the Phantom likely has a different shape, fabric, baffles, and so on. All of this contributes to the better EN rating, which is the only objective measurement we have that looks at the whole bag, not just the amount of down insulation. That being said, though the Phantom may be slightly warmer, it might not be as comfortable for you because it is less roomy inside (which is one of the ways the Phantom is rated warmer with less down than the SB 35).
