I bought two of these seat pads and I am hoping to use them as a sleeping pad. I have tried to use foam pads but don't sleep well and have back pain the next day. I am hoping that these inflatable pads will work when placed under the hips and shoulders. They are not large, only 14"x14", so they will have to be strategically placed and moved when switching from back to side sleeping. 2.6 ounces for each, so 5.2 ounces total. Compare this to 14 ounces for a short Static V pad.

I am still testing them. Ideally they would be the only sleeping pad, but I may use them together with a foam pad. I have no idea if this will actually work.
