What R-value should my sleeping pad be?
around 1 to 7
The higher the R-value of a sleeping pad, the greater it will resist heat transfer and keep you insulated from the ground. R-values for sleeping pads usually range from around 1 to 7, while thicker and less portable mattresses can creep into the double digits (but these have limited appeal for most backpackers).

How do I find a slow leak in a thermarest?
Look for small bubbles forming on the pad indicating the location of the hole. Mark the hole with a marker.

Look for small air bubbles escaping from the pad into the water indicating the location of the hole.
How do I choose a sleeping pad?

You should choose a sleeping pad that’s a few inches longer than your height, so your feet won’t hang off of the end—it’s no joke how much body heat can be sapped away from contact with the ground.
Is a 20 sleeping pad wide enough?
