I've compiled a list of Ultracheap and Ultralight equipment for those just starting out, what do you think?

As the title mentions, I've put this list together of ultracheap and ultralight suggestions from r/Ultralight community. A lot of the reason for creating this list was to reduce the startup cost for a lot of my friends. If they do it a few times and decide it's not for them, then they're only out a couple hundred instead of thousands.

This is a living-and-breathing list that I will keep building and maintaining. The loadout will change as things fall in and out of favor of the r/Ultralight community. I will place items in the "Other UL Options" section which is not being bookkept in the mass roll-up.

Please do your own due diligence in your gear research and understand what it means to buy without warranty. This is not meant to replace high quality gear, rather it's meant to enable people to get outdoors at lower cost. Please let me know if you feel there are any changes I should make!

EDIT: Added UL Hammock category at the bottom. ~57oz compared to ~59oz for the tent, but at a $60 higher cost.

Made a correction to the UL 1p tent - it's actually a KUIU knockoff, not a Tarptent knockoff as I had originally suspected.

EDIT2: The seller of the CCF sleep pad I had linked in the loadout raised their price by $10 to $29.97 (likely a response to increased demand). I've fixed this by linking to a different listing of the same product which is listed at $16. I will leave the price in lighterpack at $20 for now.

Also, the Ultralight Ultracheap List was added to the sidebar! Thanks mods!
