OUTBACK LOGIC Siesta 4 Disco Edition Tent With Dual Fan Set

Whether you spend your evening chatting by the campfire or dancing all night at a festival, being woken up at sunrise sucks! Less sleep means less energy to get the full potential from the rest of your day (or night), so we set out to improve the camping experience for everyone and make bright, overheating tents a thing of the past!

The Siesta4 is a four person tent, made from a specially developed lightweight, durable, waterproof fly fabric that reflects infrared, visible, and ultraviolet light. Compared to typical nylon and polyester tents, the Siesta4 is dramatically cooler and darker inside when in direct sun.

The Siesta4 is the world’s first tent to feature ducted side vents, into which up to two ultra-quiet, 8 inch, USB-powered fans can be installed. The fan draws cooling fresh air directly into the inner tent through a special fabric duct that connects the inner tent to the fly. This is especially useful when the doors are closed, or if there’s no breeze.

In a camping world first, we have designed a ducted vent system that keeps out heat and light, whilst allowing fresh air in from outside. A fabric air duct connects an opening in the inner tent to the vent on the fly, and the outer end of the duct has insect mesh so bugs can’t use you as a tasty treat.

Inside the tent the vent opening can be left uncovered for natural ventilation, or one of our custom fans can be zipped in. The duct can be left in place when the tent is rolled up, but the fan(s) have to be removed and packed separately. 

The fan can be run from any USB power source. Power consumption is very low (less than 2 Watts), so battery life isn't a problem . We recommend portable rechargeable power banks like the ones used to charge cell phones and tablets, and/or solar charging kits. 

Each fan will be supplied with with a 5v USB compatible power cord. Please let us know if you’d also like a cord for 12v batteries and/or 12v car outlets as we’ll add this if there is sufficient demand. 

For most camping trips, a portable battery (USB power bank) will run the fan for a few hours each day without needing to be recharged. We evaluated the options for supplying our own portable battery packs, but we can’t currently compete with the prices you can find online from Amazon, eBay etc. Therefore we've created a table to give you an idea of what size battery to buy. 

We recommend buying from a reputable brand (check the online reviews) as not all battery packs provide as much real world capacity as the suppliers claim. If in doubt buy a slightly larger capacity pack than you think you'll need. If you want to run two fans, simply double the capacity and choose a model with 2 x USB outputs, or buy two battery packs. 

If you wish to use the same battery pack to charge your cell phone or other devices while camping, don’t forget to add extra capacity for those devices as well.
