 Do you know how to inflate your sleeping pad correctly? Inflating a sleeping pad can be that difficult, right? But do you use a pump sack? Or do you just inflate it directly with your mouth? And how do you use this pump bag? I'm Deen and in this quick tip video, I will demonstrate the proper method for inflating the bug sleeping pads using the pump bag. Many people actually make the mistake of blowing air directly into the bag instead of maintaining some distance. This distance is crucial as it allows you to efficiently fill the pad with more air and using less effort, which is super handy when you are tired after your outdoor adventure of that day. This technique is called the Bernoulli's principle. The valves on the bug relay models have multiple functions. They can be used for inflation, for deflation, and fine-tuning pressure inside of the sleeping pad. And additionally, all models come with a convenient pump bag that allows you to inflate the pad in less than a minute. Let me show you how. First, attach the pump bag to the valve by removing the gray valve to have it in inflate mode. Next, maintain a 15 centimeter distance between your mouth and the bag's opening and blow into it with a small controlled stream of air. The velocity of the air through the small opening will cause a significant volume of air to follow your breath and enter the bag. This principle offers two main benefits. One, the bag will fill with a considerably larger amount of air than you've actually blown into it, which means you'll require fewer breaths and inflate the pad much more quickly. Two, a minimum of breath condensation will enter the sleeping pad. Repeat this four to five times and your sleeping pad will have reached the perfect pressure. Easy, right? Now you can embark on your next camping adventure.
