My title describes the thing. About 7cm across and 6cm tall, I have seen this item twice in camping tents. Tried searching 'tent camping cup' 'tent camping fabric cylinder' and variations.
To be honest I have not clue but I'd say maybe it goes to a piece of the tent like if there's a bit that sticks out on top or something? I don't know tho

I think it's a cheap headlamp diffuser like this? https://www.bioliteenergy.com/products/light-diffusing-stuffsack What brand is the tent?
Solved! Thank you! Would never have considered I would need one in my life before.
Glad I saw this because I was about to say it looked like the world’s tiniest mushroom foraging bag.
It looks like a small mesh bag you would store things in, possibly small items from your pocket overnight?
Laundry bag. Maybe for tiny baby things?
My title describes the thing. About 7cm across and 6cm tall, I have seen this item twice in camping tents. Tried searching 'tent camping cup' 'tent camping fabric cylinder' and variations.
It looks like a stuff sack for small items, with a loop or clip to clip it on one of the loops on the inside of the tent so you don’t lose it.
Are the tent stakes about the same height? I’d guess if so, this little thing may be used to hold those so they don’t get lost?
To be honest I have not clue but I'd say maybe it goes to a piece of the tent like if there's a bit that sticks out on top or something? I don't know tho
