Description:
DARCHE stands apart in our commitment to making awnings that have truly been put to the test, and we are the first in Australia to extensively wind-test a freestanding awning. This commitment led us to a comprehensive 30-day wind testing period, exposing our awning to a spectrum of winds ranging from gentle breezes to severe gales according to the Beaufort scale.
In our rigorous testing, the Eclipse 270 Freestanding LED Awning showcased its strength by holding up until 50km/hr on its initial trial, and it withstood 55km/hr winds in the next round of testing after being repaired. The wind meter we employed for our testing was the Omega OM-CP-WIND101A wind speed data logger system, calibrated using data from the Australian Bureau of Meteorology and capable of recording wind speeds every second.
The Eclipse 270 Freestanding LED Awning further demonstrated its robustness by holding strong up to wind speeds of 90km/hr with the poles down and securely pegged. The remarkable part is that we were able to restore it to its full functionality post-testing. Backing up this robustness are specifically-engineered break points within the awning so in the case of failure, the awning will do so in a manner that avoids damage to your vehicle and facilitates simple repairs.
Features:
- Over 2 years of development and testing
- Wind rated to 30 km/hr in freestanding mode
- 11.5m² of cover and the most useable shape on the market
- Fully-enclosed transit cover and two-piece backing plate design maximises weather resistance while still retaining the ability to easily move the awning from one vehicle to another
- Height-adjustable brackets suits a wide range of setup types
- X-tube aluminium alloy rafter arms, backing plate & hinges designed using state-of-the-art techniques & simulation for incredible strength & durability
- Integrated dual-colour (white and amber) dimmable LED lights on four rafter arms. (power bank not incl.)
- Additional height for headroom and water run off
- Heavy-duty 320gsm ripstop polycotton canvas with 3000mm waterhead rating
- All parts are designed to be replaceable for easy and low cost repair
- Compatible with rooftop tent awning bracket kits (T050801945 and T050801946, sold separately)
- Wall kits available (sold separately)
