Re: Show HN: Lightweight vacuum packed foam camping matress
#2Hey HN, a guy I went to university with followed through with his idea to make a better alternative to the current camping mattress options. Incase you don't want to go to the kickstarter link (unfortunately it's the only product page he has so far) here's a brief rundown:
- Compressor is 7.5 x 3.25 x 5.5 in, 2.6 lbs.
- Foam mattress
- The vacuum packing takes 2-3 minutes to complete.
I'd love to hear what you all think about it. It looks like he's trying to raise money for injection moulding to produce a bunch now. I've never worked with manufacturing personally but from reading blog posts it seems that this is a difficult part of getting a physical product going.
