Thermarest's Luxurylite Cot Sun Shield blocks the sun completely and works with the Cot Bug Shelter to provide a comprehensive cot system for use outdoors.
Thermarest says:
It’s no secret that seeking shade under the opaque fabric of traditional tent material is anything but cooling – it’s more like a hot bath. We fixed that by adding a reflective and waterproof ThermaCapture coating that completely blocks the sun’s rays with no greenhouse effect, for truly cooling shade. Designed to work with our Cot Bug Shelter, the Solar Shield can also be pitched with just a trekking pole to keep you – or just your cooler – from the heat of the sun.
Our Verdict
Thermarest's Cot Sun Shield is ideal if you've setup your Thermarest Cot and Bug Shelter outside and need some shade for your sleeping area. It will also protect against light rain. It can only be used with the Cot Bug Shelter as it needs the frame.
