Product Information

Full details

The OEX Phoxx 1v3 Tent is designed for solo adventurers and minimalist campers, offering a lightweight and compact shelter for one person. Its key benefit is its portability, making it ideal for backpacking and wild camping without adding significant weight to your pack. A potential caveat is its single-person capacity, which may not suit those needing extra space or traveling with gear for more than one. This tent features a waterproof construction, pre-angled poles for stability and porch space, and a breathable inner tent that can be used independently in warm weather.

Can this tent be used by more than one person?

No, it is specifically designed and sized for one person only.

How waterproof is the tent?

The flysheet has a waterproof rating of 5,000 HH, which can withstand heavy rain, and the groundsheet is also waterproof.

Is the inner tent breathable?

Yes, the inner tent is made from breathable polyester fabric to help reduce condensation.

Can I use the inner tent without the flysheet?

Yes, the inner tent can be used on its own in hot and dry weather for enhanced ventilation and bug protection.

What is the estimated time to pitch the tent?

The estimated pitch time is around 10 minutes.

What are the packed dimensions of the tent?

Troubleshooting

Tent is difficult to pitch.

Ensure poles are fully inserted into their connectors and that the flysheet is oriented correctly before securing.

Water ingress during heavy rain.

Check that all seams are sealed, guylines are taut for proper water runoff, and the groundsheet is not submerged.

Condensation inside the tent.

Improve ventilation by opening vents on the flysheet, using the inner tent on its own in dry weather, or ensuring there are no blockages to the breathable fabric.

Poles seem weak or damaged.

Inspect poles for cracks or splits. Contact the manufacturer for replacement parts if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Extremely lightweight at 1.58 kg, ideal for backpacking.
Compact pack size (31x14x14 cm) makes it easy to transport.
Good waterproof rating (5,000 HH flysheet) for wet conditions.
Versatile use with the inner tent usable separately in warm weather.
Pre-angled poles offer good stability and storage space.

Cons

Strictly a 1-person tent, offering minimal space for gear or movement.
Potential for condensation in the inner tent despite breathable fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Unpack all components: flysheet, inner tent, poles, and pegs.
Assemble the OEX Endura poles.
Lay out the inner tent and connect the poles to the designated sleeves or clips.
Erect the inner tent, securing it with pegs.
Drape the flysheet over the inner tent and secure it to the poles and ground using the remaining pegs and guylines.

Care:

Always allow the tent to dry completely before storing to prevent mildew.
Clean the fabric with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary; avoid harsh detergents.
