    When completing the entry form, after submitting the entry I get a pop up saying that the answer - 8 - is incorrect. Having looked up the tech specs, the answer should be 8.3

    Ha, just tried 8.3 and it's not accepted. Apparently I should've ticked the box saying that I want to subscribe to the newsletter, even though I'd already subscribed and logged in!

    It does say 8.3kg in some places and 8kg in others - sometimes on the same page.

    The comp page says to look at "Product Description" which gives 8kg (see below), but the main reason to put "8" as the answer is that the answer box only accepts one character as the answer and accepts 8 without an error message.

    On UK Campsite, you never have to tick the "Please tick the box if you are happy to be contacted by email by the competition organiser." box and this comp is no exception.

    If anyone cares, the actual weight of the device (unpacked) is 6.3kg
