      Comments about Lightning HT 3 Tent - 3 Person, 3 Season:

      This tent is perfect for 2 who like some extra room - would not recommend it for 3 adults. The 2 vestibules are nice - the larger one easily holds 2 good sized backpacks (65L and 75L) Good headroom throughout the tent (not only in the center). 3 good located pouches inside the tent offer enough storage for the little things you do not wanna have to dig for at night.
      We used the tent on a backcountry canoe trip and loved it

        Comments about Lightning HT 3 Tent - 3 Person, 3 Season:

        I bought this to have a light, good quality tent for backpacking, overnight trips. Fast to set up and take down. Really well engineered, I have only owned cheaper tents before and was very impressed with the cool little features that the lower end tents didn't have. Packs well (including the footprint). The almost vertical walls give more room inside. Haven't used it in wind or rain yet so can't comment on that. Would definitely recommend. Shipped free and super fast, but had to pay duty since I am in Canada. Thanks Campsaver

          Comments about Lightning HT 3 Tent - 3 Person, 3 Season:

          I bought this tent to use as a backpacking tent for my two sons and me for Scouts. I was impressed by by its packability, ease of setup and takedown. Be careful about where you place the tent even with a footprint. We just about punctured it on a small twig that we had cut out of the way. Luckily, my younger son noticed it before he put all of his body weight on it and I was able to cut it even with the ground. I say all this because the bathtub of the tent seems to be durable yet thin. Of course, I had the footprint underneath the tent. The tent was well worth the money spent.

            Q:

            Hi,

            Is this a free-standing tent, and what is the difference between the Lightning HT and Lightning XT? Thanks, Mark

              The lightning XT model is a free standing tent that is an upgrade to the lightning HT

              A:

              The HT and the XT have slightly different setup configurations as far as the poles are concerned. These tents are similar, but the XT is a little lighter with an inch less in head height. You can view it here: http://www.campsaver.com/lightning-xt-4-tent-4-person-3-season

              A:

              I have compared these two tents and my conclusion is the pole configuration is different and the square footage is bigger on the XT. A little more on the inside and in the vestibule. These things are all that I could find different.
