There data loggers are slated for the 2012 Pacific Crest Trail.
We've added iButton data loggers to our arsenal for recording temperatures during our sleeping bag tests. Weighing in at about 1/10 of an ounce and a about 1/4 inch thick by 5/8 inch in diameter, these temperature sensors will make testing sleeping bags much easier.

By placing one sensor inside a sleeping bag, another inside a tent or under a tarp and a third outside the tent or tarp, nighttime temperatures can be monitored.

Couple this information with a profile of the tester and his or her gear, the temperature information can be put into context during a series of tests to test the efficacy of a sleeping bag.
More information on our new way of testing sleeping bags can me found on our sleeping bag testing pages.
