Darche Eclipse 180° Awning (Generation 2)
UPF is a measure of the amount of harmful UV radiation that penetrates fabric and reaches our skin. Darche Eclipse awning canvas is rated UPF 50+, the highest achievable rating possible. Read more here.
The Eclipse 180° Awning can be mounted to either side of your vehicle and is ideal for dual, single and space cabs as well as general canopy and wagon setups. Designed for quick and easy setup and pack down by one person, this awning provides 8.2m2 of cover over the length of the vehicle. With a heavy duty steel and alloy swivel hinge system on both ends, the awning spans 6m along the vehicle and features two pivoting alloy telescopic leg poles which pack away neatly along the rafters. Constructed with hard wearing proofed poly/ cotton ripstop canvas and a strong lightweight box tube alloy rafter system, the awning weighs in at 20kg and is covered by a 2 year warranty.
Add an optional wall to the Eclipse 180° Awning to complete your 4x4 touring/camping setup. The optional wall can be set up as a wind and weather break, or as an awning extension. With walls fitted and anchored down, approx. 16.5m2 of coverage will be achieved depending on height of vehicle. The walls are manufactured with Darche’s proven and hardwearing proofed poly-cotton ripstop canvas.

FREE-STANDING FUNCTIONALITY
|
It is designed to be a free-stander to aid in set up and pack down only, however we recommend that it is pegged down at all times. It has a large surface area, meaning sudden wind gusts could become hazardous. The Darche Eclipse 180° Awning has been designed for general camping use under normal conditions. Always ensure all guy ropes are anchored correctly. It may be necessary to re-adjust guy ropes and pegs at times to maintain the structural integrity of the awning. Note: To avoid chances of personal injury and or property damage, Darche highly recommends the Eclipse 180° Awning should NOT be erected during windy conditions. Damage caused by wind and/or adverse weather will not be covered under warranty. |
ONE-PERSON SETUP
|
The Eclipse 180° Awning is designed as a simple 1 person set up and pack down. Inclement weather may require the assistance of another person.

WATER RUN-OFF
