Darche Eclipse (GEN2) 270 degree awning review - Installed on a Landcruiser Troopcarrier

[@melanieprice2730]

Yes spot on. It's a good mid range awning and have one myself and use it regularly on the south west coast where it is very windy. As with anything canvas it has its limits and I have been caught out in strong winds in the early hours packing it away in the dark before the Troopy is blown away. No matter what awning you use it will flap around and shake your vehicle in heavy winds and that makes it very difficult to get a good nights sleep. Also it does help if you are 6'8" when packing it away on a Troopy.

Yeah a milk crate would have been a good idea to carry with us! Our Troopy wasn't even lifted and it was still a stretch to reach up to it. 🤙

I just set my 270 up today for the first I noticed that gap between the rear and the awning but if you listen all bolts on the awning and slightly shifted back so it's a line with the roof it will set a lot closer good idea it is

Hi just set mine up first time, thought I'd let you know the front flap can slide off & be slid onto the back to cover the gap, I also have a troopy 😊 Thanks for your vid 👍
