{"product_id":"sea-to-summit-hangout-mode-poleset","title":"Sea to Summit Hangout Mode Poleset","description":"\u003cp class=\"product-lead\"\u003eThe Sea to Summit Hangout Mode Poleset is a dedicated two-pole set for Telos tent owners who want to activate Hangout Mode without using trekking poles. Made from anodised aluminium using a combination of DAC Featherlite NSL 8.5 mm and 9.0 mm pole sections, the set weighs 135 g (4.8 oz) and packs to 45 × 3 × 3 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA Dedicated Setup, Not a Workaround\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHangout Mode transforms the Telos tent into a semi-open sheltered space, but it normally relies on trekking poles to hold the structure. The Hangout Mode Poleset removes that dependency entirely. Each pole extends to 1.25 m (4 ft 1 in), pops into the designated attachment points, and stays put while you peg out. No improvising, no adjusting trekking pole height mid-setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eEngineered for the Telos Pole System\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe poles use a combination of thinner 8.5 mm Featherlite NSL sections and thicker 9.0 mm NSL sections, balancing low weight against the lateral load Hangout Mode places on the structure. Three-segment construction lets the folded poles tuck alongside the main Telos pole set in the same bag, so the poleset travels as part of the tent kit rather than as a separate item to track.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eReady to Carry, Ready to Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn included pole strap keeps both poles bundled together between uses, and the set ships in a nylon stuff sack. At 135 g for the pair, the poleset adds minimal weight for campers who want the Hangout Mode option available on every trip without relying on trekking poles they may not always carry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDAC Featherlite NSL construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e combination of 8.5 mm and 9.0 mm NSL aluminium sections for a balance of light weight and structural strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo poles, 1.25 m extended:\u003c\/strong\u003e each pole reaches 1.25 m (4 ft 1 in) to support the Hangout Mode configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree-segment fold:\u003c\/strong\u003e collapsed poles fit alongside the main Telos pole set\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePole strap included:\u003c\/strong\u003e keeps both poles bundled and organized during transport\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNylon stuff sack included:\u003c\/strong\u003e packed size 45 × 3 × 3 cm (18 × 1 × 1 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePole material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eAnodised aluminium (DAC Featherlite NSL)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eStuff sack material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eNylon\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePole diameters\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e8.5 mm and 9.0 mm NSL sections\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSegments per pole\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e3\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePoles included\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eExtended length (each pole)\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1.25 m \/ 4 ft 1 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e135 g \/ 4.8 oz\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePacked size\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e45 × 3 × 3 cm \/ 18 × 1 × 1 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCompatible tent\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSea to Summit Telos tent (Hangout Mode)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For and Isn't\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-yes\"\u003eThe Hangout Mode Poleset suits Telos tent owners who want to use Hangout Mode without relying on trekking poles, particularly campers and backpackers who don't carry trekking poles on every trip or who prefer a self-contained tent kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-no\"\u003eThis poleset is designed specifically for the Sea to Summit Telos tent and its Hangout Mode attachment points.
