DEUTER Act Lite 65+10 vs OSPREY Atmos 65 AG - 04/18/17 09:07 AM
Hey all,
first post on the backcountry forum. My name is Mike.
Anyway, I am buying a pack soon as I have just sold my Atmos 50 AG on ebay in order to make way for a higher volume pack. So I have it narrowed down between Deuter Act Lite 65+10 VS Osprey Atmos 65 AG.
Obviously, I just owned an Atmos AG, but I did not own it long enough to do anything serious with it. So I do not know how it holds up after a few days out. I know enough to know that its back suspension feels great and lightens the load-bearing on one's back.
With regard to the Deuter pack, unfortunately, no store in my area carries it, so I have not seen it in person. Considering that I am looking at a pack for the summer, can any Deuter Act Lite owners vouch for its use keeping one cool on the back? Obviously it's not going to do as great of a job as the Osprey Atmos, but I want to make sure it's not a sweat box. I am considering it over the Atmos 65 AG due to 1. Price, though it's not a huge difference, and 2. 10 additional liters of volume.
