The extra 3 poles can go in the bag once the awning is all done up
@trevormutch60989 ай бұрын
I have one of these on my square drop camper and it is amazing. The reason for the separate poles is the fact that the beams have to mesh together when its packed up, if you have the poles on the beams you will need to have a bigger space between the top and bottom beam to allow for the pole to be stored up. another reason is the fact that if they were permantly attached the whole package when packed up will be substantially larger. i have one of these awnings and i find it amazing, until i have to pack it up on my own, its still fairly simple though (i just have medical issues that make it slightly more difficult for me).

I have the same awning, I never put the extra poles I don't even know where they are anymore lol. So, only 3 poles 3 guy ropes! I'm looking to get one of the walls tho, so that might add to the setup but I don't know yet. Thanks for the video and for the review!
@CasperLabuschagne Жыл бұрын
Since you have a pickup truck, here is a tip - first position the back of the truck right at the point where the awning attached to the tent will end. I first place a netted ground sheet down starting at the rear of the truck, but it is optional. Now erect the tent so that the erected veranda will touch or be slightly above the canopy of the pickup truck. This will mean that if you have any fridges, supplies or cooking equipment inside the truck canopy, including sliding drawers, it is positioned right at the front of your veranda where the inside of the pickup canopy becomes an effective extension to your tent. As additional protection for the tent floor, I also place a 2.4m by 2.4m custom made synthetic tarp (that doubles up as a rain cover for everything on the roof) on the inside floor of the tent. Since it will frequently become dirty from muddy feet etc, I simply take it outside and wash it down before bringing it back inside. In Australia and South Africa, unless there happens to be a strong wind blowing in which case you want to position the veranda down-wind and keep the back window flap closed, this tent works best when positioned with the veranda due north and where additional middle tent poles are utilised for the veranda with that stabilising horizontal pole positioned between the middle poles. The poles in the middle are then elevated higher than the front poles so that the maximum shade is generated on the veranda and that the bulk of the tent is somewhat shielded from the heat of the sun. The front ventilation flaps are at the highest part of the tent and it is essential to keep them open for hot air to escape from the tent that will draw cooler air in from the back or side windows. For the same reason that hot air rises, those top ventilation flaps are highly effective at removing moisture laden air from your tent at night which reduces condensation. Unless you are happy to deal with snakes, scorpions and giant spiders, always keep the bug-net on the front door fully zipped up at all times.

We've just bought one of these tents. At 9:21 you mention water-proofing the tent. How did you do this? I remember as a kid that if it was raining you didn't touch the inside of a wet tent because it would create a drip, but being kids, of course we touched the inside of the tent.
@SendinIt Жыл бұрын
We just set the tent up and wet it a few times to expand the stitching and seal the joints. But you also right about not touching the wet walls 😆

Thanks for the review. I've been looking around for a 270° awnings for the past 2 months to replace my square pull out awning and I keep coming back to the Darche Eclipse 270° Awning as being the best awning for my needs. It's coverage, covering the back and stretching all the way around and up too the bullbar . . . provides the best coverage from the the rear and the side of My Canopy, and the canopy area I used as My living area. But as you have shown . . . the walls are bulky and take up a heap of storage room, and as I sleep in a swag under my awning . . . I'll probably just continue to use a couple Gazebo Walls to provide privacy in lue of the Darche walls . . . if I need a tent . . . I have a OzTent to fit in with the 270° awning lol.

Cheers for the review! I’m about to pull the trigger on this awning for all the reasons you emphasised. Free standing awnings are a cool party trick but poles and guy ropes are what survive bad weather. Have you had much experience with your awning in bad weather? How has it held up when fully secured (guy ropes and poles)
@SendinIt2 жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching Matt, sounds like you know what your after. If you happen to get caught out in high winds and rain this unit can be pegged out really well. Alot of poles means short spans between ally tube. We had it set up one night and the wind was near gale force. Made alot of noice but never damaged it.

Any awning that isn’t free standing without poles is not worth it IMHO. Spend the extra $$ and get one, like The Bush Company 270 XT, where you don’t need to use poles and guy ropes unless you are in very high winds. Everyday use with any 270 should be simply opening it, enjoying it, and closing it back up……no poles or guy ropes needed 90% of time.
