These pads have a pretty high R Value, making them optimal for colder temperatures (ca -11º F / -24º C for the 7 model and -36º F / -38º C for the 9)/ You could still use these for the temperatures listed, but you may not want to sleep in a bag rated for really cold temps (or you could unzip if you got hot). You will want to consider weight as well. These will be a little heavier if you plan to pack them.
