Rumpl expands its line of lightweight down blankets with a two-person option

Looking to get cozy with your Valentine? Might we suggest curling up in a down blanket from Rumpl to celebrate the occasion? Appropriately enough, the company has expanded its lineup to include a two-person model on Tuesday, ending disputes between couples over who gets to use the company’s warm and stylish quilts.

Made from the same materials that you would find in a high-end sleeping bag or down jacket, Rumpl’s blankets are both lightweight and packable. That makes them a great choice for taking with you when traveling, setting out on a backpacking trip, or going car camping. Of course, they are equally as comfortable for use around the home, say on a chilly night in February.

Insulated with sustainably sourced, hydrophobic 600 fill down insulation and covered in a 20D ripstop nylon shell — complete with DWR coating — these quilts are water resistant, machine washable, and durable enough to survive in the outdoors. They are also rated for use in temperatures as low as 40-degree Fahrenheit (4 degrees Celsius), making them a nice sleeping bag replacement when used for warm weather camping.

Rumpl’s standard blanket already offers plenty of coverage, measuring 54 by 80 inches in size. The new two-person model expands those measurements out to 88 by 84 inches however, making it much easier to share with a significant other. But, the increased dimensions also add a bit of extra weight too. While the original version tips the scales at 1.2 pounds, the two-person quilt tops out at 2.1 pounds. It doesn’t compress down quite as small when placed inside its included stuff sack either, but neither version will add much in the way of bulk to your luggage or backpack.

The two-person Down Puffy is available in three colors — black, forest green and Baja blue — and can be purchased at the Rumpl website for $299.

Aventon goes all in on smart security and connectivity on Level 3 commuter e-bike
Aventon Level 3 right profile with Queen Mary in the background.

Aventon invited me to a pre-launch press briefing on its new Level.3 commuter e-bike in Long Beach, California. The Level.3 has several significant upgrades from the Level.2, including increased range and an adjustable suspension seat post, but the greatest upgrade is the Aventon Control Unit (ACU).

The ACU is a proprietary technology that incorporates 4G, Bluetooth connectivity, and GPS tracking. It enables a host of security, convenience, and personalization features. The Level 3 isn't the first Aventon model with the ACU; the Abound SR utility and cargo e-bike was the initial ACU-equipped e-bike.

Aventon launches Abound LR super-cargo smart e-bike
Aventon Abound LR left rear three-quarter view facing Long Beach harbor.

Aventon announced the Abound LR e-bike, a longer alternative to the Abound SR and original Aventon Abound cargo e-bike lineup. During a pre-launch press briefing for the Abound LR in February, Aventon characterized the Abound SR as an all-purpose utility and cargo bike and the Abound LR as a cargo carrier for families and a possible replacement for a second car.

The new long-rack LR version shares the short-rack SR's technical and ACU-based smart features and most physical details, except length and weight. The Abound LR is 8 pounds heavier and 7.1 inches longer than the SR. The two new Abound models are similar to the Chevy Tahoe and Suburban, two other vehicles built for the same purpose; one's just longer.
