FreeSpirit Evolution Rooftop Tent Product Review

[@gj0628]

Awesome rig

[@harleyharrison9180]

Fsr makes new latches that are nice upgrade also locks for the struts to hold it open

[@fscottgray9784]

Seems like the EVO2 second version of this tent addressed most of the short comings. Stand off ladder, better mattress, latches, more pockets etc. seem like big improvements.

this was great....I appreciate the humor as much as the review

[@brofessoroverlanding8456]

Thank you!

[@supergoobergirlable]

Hey - Quick question bcs I hate wind and it looks like the Freespirit might be a bit loosey goosey, flapping in the wind. Can you address that? Thanks so much for your review.

[@dogpack2508]

Awesome Brother!

[@brofessoroverlanding8456]

Thank you my brother!

[@MarthallersMisadventures]

Thank you for your review. I bought the same tent a few weeks ago. They have now replaced the rubber hold downs on the side with additional metal hold down. They have also changed up the ladder mount. I did a review as well on my channel.

[@brofessoroverlanding8456]

Excellent! I’ll check it out! thanks for watching!

[@ZachHollenbaugh]

What type of solar setup do you have. I have the same tent and was looking into that!

[@brofessoroverlanding8456]

I have 3 Lensun Solar 100w flexible panels attached to the top of the tent with Gorilla Double Sided Tape. 2 of them are wired together in sequence and go to charge my Jackery 1000. The one in the front is wired to help charge my secondary battery on the FJ. The 2 100w panels will keep the Jackery at 100% while it is running the fridge and other things during the day. Very helpful when traveling off-grid.

[@Overland_eXploits_Oklahoma]

Pretty simple design. Looks comfortable.

[@brofessoroverlanding8456]

Really enjoying it. Especially with the new mattress.

[@BlueLineOverland]

Hmmmm I love it. I think I'll buy one lol

[@brofessoroverlanding8456]

Haha that’s funny.

[@MrRogers1971]

Is yours the 49” or 55”

[@dangoodman7770]

Same question that size looks just right for the FJ

[@MrRogers1971]

@@dangoodman7770 it’s probably the 55”. He’s got the Qomotop self inflating mattress in there and it’s 52” wide… I’ve got the same mattress

[@brofessoroverlanding8456]

Mine is the 55. Sorry for the delayed response.

[@LM-ek2hb]

Two questions: How about winter camping and cold air from under the tent, between the slats? Is that an issue? Also, how did you run your solar? Just stays inside the tent or does it make it all the way into the Jeep?

[@brofessoroverlanding8456]

It stayed extremely warm inside. The solar was run 2 different ways. 2 panels to the Jackery and 1 to the secondary battery on the FJ with extension cables.

Please read about my experience with FSR before you make your final decision to purchase. I have posted on the Overland Bound forums and the Expedition Portal forums.

[@brofessoroverlanding8456]

I will check it out. I have actually traded mine off for another model of RTT. There were several things I loved about the tent and many things I didn’t. Thank you for sharing.

[@alexkaiju]

@@brofessoroverlanding8456 what did you trade yours for?

[@luisLP5752]

What a bummer about your experience. Did you end up finding another option for rtt???

[@shadow.overland]

@@luisLP5752 Definitely a long process with a 💩 company. Yes. I'm going with the Bush Company AX27
