Rab's Midweight Insulation Showdown with the Electron Pro, Mythic Alpine, and Nebula Pro! 

More to come! Thank you so much for the support

Great choice! Enjoy using it!!

I agree, the fit of Electron pro, is more body fitter type, while Positron is really baggy, in comparison, I do like both, and for extre cold, Positron can accomodates inner layering.

Glad it was helpful! If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask

Unfortunately, Rab does not offer a temperature range for its jacket and it would be really difficult to give you an accurate answer. This is due to a number of factors such as tolerance to cold, activity level, wind, humidity, layering, and personal comfort preferences.

Hi, Mens is in Beluga ladies is Orion Blue

Temperatures between the 2 would be very similar. The Electron Pro being down would regulate your temperature better but be more susceptible in damp conditions.

The Electron Pro offers more warmth, making it an ideal choice for staying cozy both while walking and as a warm layer at camp. However, if you're looking for a jacket to use as part of your layering system throughout the day, especially under a waterproof shell, the Microlight is a better option due to its lower profile and streamlined fit.

@@tauntonleisure Thank you for your reply. I'm looking to use it under a shell. Actually, I was thinking if the electron pro would also be under the shell, because I was also afraid of getting cold. Is the microlight enough for heating?

​@@heyyoyof You could use the Electron Pro under a waterproof jacket, but it is bulkier than the Microlight, so it depends on the fit of your outer layer. If the fit is too snug with the Electron Pro, the down won’t achieve its optimal loft and insulation. Unfortunately, it's tough to give a definitive answer since everyone experiences cold differently. If you are worried about getting cold, it might be safer to go with the Electron Pro. The Microlight is a great option for use with a waterproof jacket, and when layered correctly, it can perform well in colder conditions while you're active. However, it might not provide enough warmth when you're standing still. If you tend to run warm, the Microlight could be an excellent part of your layering system.

@@tauntonleisure Thank you for your reply. I will use my preference in favor of microlight. I'm also going to ask a question about shell jackets. What do you think about Marmot minimalist pro? Do you have a review video about shell jackets? Unfortunately, I didn't see it.

​ @heyyoyof Unfortunately, we don't carry Marmot's clothing, so I haven't had the opportunity to test it. We tend to focus on brands like Mountain Equipment, Rab, and Montane for our professional-grade shells.

Rab are def pricing themselves out of market. Good stuff but during a cost of living crisis they could have kept prices competitive. Making exploring the outdoors exclusively for more affluent people. Sad reallu

@@andrewhayes9913 - very good points 👍

Rab gear is expensive, yes. It does last though. I've got a few of their jackets that are 6/7 years old and show very little signs of wear, whereas I've had plenty of tog24 gear that is knackered after the first season (especially their new stuff - fashion over function). It is always worth waiting for sales for most outdoor gear though, there is almost always some sort of discount going around

I’ve been looking at the tog24 but not many reviews out there! Can I ask what model down jacket you got?

⁠@@luap1983I have a tog 24 drax down jacket, it’s super soft, super warm and super light I doubt it has hydrophobic down like rab jackets though I had a £50 voucher so only cost me £30 for what’s basically a microlight with even better insulation it’s 800 fill power

Hi, 5ft 7 wearing a size small

@@tauntonleisure you said medium in the video

Great review! Is Mythic g jacket better than the previous models?

You would need a good layering system under it. You could look at going warmer like the Neutrino Pro this with a few layers would definitely be up to the task

hmm I see. ill be around 0 Celsius sometimes so it will rain. and I think neutrino would be to bulky to put a rain shell on?@@tauntonleisure

Tough one. In that case the Electron maybe the better balance.

hmm I see, ill have a look on. both jackets anyways. thanks!!@@tauntonleisure
