Will do, but its not getting used til at least April, more likely May. Thus far, I'm not a fan of the packaging, I think I am going to wind up carrying the poles and the fabric separately. My last tent packed more compactly, even though it is a bit heavier. My fish scale says 4lb 3oz for the BA, 5lb 8oz for the Eureka (albeit with a homemade tarp footprint rolled up in there):
One really cool feature is that BA is sewing a strip of LEDs in the ceiling seam of the tent, that can be operated with 3 AAAs or a USB power source (sorry for the crappy pic):
