From Moosejaw:

From RockCreek:
"The Deuter ACT Lite 40+10 is a compact weekend backpack with exceptional back ventilation and carrying comfort. Details include contoured shoulder straps, two side mesh pockets and a top lid pocket. The elastic cord compression system can also be used to store items on the outside of the pack. The ACT Lite is hydration system compatible and has trekking pole loops.Being more technical than most other packs in their size (and price range!), the Deuter ACT Lites are an excellent choice for peak bagging and ski touring. The ACT Lite features the same great quality and durability as all other Deuter backpacks."

From UpsideOver:
"The Deuter Aircontact Lite 40+10 is a great full featured pack sized for the young explorer. We think this pack has a terrific profile and will fit the average early teen boyscout perfectly! The climbing and touring backpack with a narrow shape offers freedom of movement but it is still large enough to handle a weekend trip. This pack is fully adjustable from 14 - 19.5" torso lengths. This is an excellent pack for your older hiker who is still growing. Keep it light and synched down in the earlier years and take advantage of all its features as they grow into a teen."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"Go light this season without sacrificing features and functionality in this Deuter ACT Lite 40 + 10 backpack. The big differences between Deuter's established Aircontact series and the new ACT Lite line are weight and durability: ACT Lite packs are significantly lighter and offer similar features, but the fabric and profile is less suited for rigorous activities off the beaten path. With an expandable floating lid that bumps up the carrying capacity to 3,050 cubic inches, the ACT Lite 40 + 10 gives you enough room for weekend summer trips and even longer if you're doing the European hut system. It offers many of the same features found in the Aircontact series, including ice axe loops, internal divider, hydration sleeve, lower compartment and external cords for attaching shells and other items. One important consideration: Unlike most of the backcountry packs, the ACT Lite series does not include an integrated waterproof cover. If you're hiking in the summer or avoid wilderness sleepovers in damp conditions it won't be a big deal, but if your outings last for several days, you may want to consider a similarly sized pack in the Deuter Aircontact line or opt for a waterproof rain cover."

"I was looking for a weekend backpacking/travel pack. The adjustable suspension is great--lots of tweaks to fit me individually. I can put a small 2-person tent, sleeping bag, food, clothes, etc. all inside for a 2-3 day 3 season trip. It handles the load without a problem and the air vent suspension isdefinitely a must."

"I had searched the net for a midsize pack for days! I read a review in Backpacker for the Deuter brand, I checked it out and glad I did. I hike in the Arizona desert and the cooling effect of the back panel is a dream. This pack handles a 30 lb. load with ease due to the reinforced hip-padding and the fully adjustable shoulder straps (using a velcro fold-over slotted flap) these adjustment points dont sag under weight, either."
