Since its founding, Flextail has transformed outdoor sleep setups with the first electric pump for adventurers, moving from manual to effortless inflation.

  • Manual Inflation: Tiring, risky at high altitudes, and prone to moisture-related mold and aging.
  • Manual Tools: Inflation bags and foot pumps reduce effort but still demand work and add weight.
  • Electric Pumps: More efficient but not convenient enough due to multiple nozzles and accessories.

From the start, our mission has been to help outdoor enthusiasts tackle challenges in any environment.

We continuously ask: What’s the ultimate solution for outdoor sleep systems?

Today, we’re excited to unveil AVS – the built-in automatic inflation and deflation system. By solving size and performance issues, setting up your outdoor sleep system has never been easier.

The System includes the Air Capsule and Air Valve

The Air Capsule features a special designed micro motor in an ultra-light, integrated design. The lightweight Air Valve is integrated into the inflatable product.

Simply connect them, and the product inflates automatically with ease.

A reliable, easy-to-set-up sleep system is crucial in extreme cold. That’s why we designed the R09, the series’ flagship model. Featuring the AVS system for automatic inflation, it’s one of the few lightweight sleeping pads with an exceptionally high R-value.

The current values are based on tests of samples during our development process under the ASTM standard. We are preparing to have the final product tested as well.The official ASTM certification report will be updated on the page once the test is done.

The lineup features the equally remarkable R03 and R05 models. Together, they cover a full temperature range from -35°C to 10°C.

The entire Tiny Sleeping Pad series delivers great value, balancing lightweight design, performance, and cost-effectiveness.

The R09 offers an R-value of 9.5, designed for extreme cold environments down to -35°C, ensuring superior insulation and warmth during winter adventures.

The R05, with an R-value of 5.6, is ideal for temperatures from 0°C to -5°C, offering a balance of spacious comfort and portability for year-round outdoor use.

The R03, with an R-value of 3.5, is designed for 0°C to 5°C, offering insulation and comfort in a lightweight design ideal for short trips or backpacking.

Each sleeping pad comes in two sizes (Regular and Large), with Regular as the default. After the campaign, we’ll email you to confirm your preferred size. If you select Large, an additional charge will apply.
