FAQ-Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the passenger side opening and the driver side opening?
The passenger-side opening deploys to the right of your vehicle, while the driver-side opening opens to the left. We recommend choosing based on the location of your Rooftop Tent, from your rear hatch or your outdoor kitchen to optimize circulation and ergonomics around your bivouac setup.
Does this shelter really withstand strong winds during mountain expeditions?
Thanks to its reinforced aluminum frame, the basic structure handles light breezes very well on its own. However, when facing strong gusts at altitude or on the coast, the use of the two included retractable legs and the tie-down ropes is essential to securely anchor the structure to the ground and prevent any damage.
How to care for Ripstop fabric after a dusty or muddy trip on the slopes?
We recommend simple cleaning with clean water and a sponge or a very soft-bristled brush. Always allow the canvas to air dry completely before folding it into its storage bag to prevent mold growth. This will ensure the 5000 mm PU waterproofing treatment and UV protection remain effective for many years of adventures.
The installation on a Roof-Rack Is the standard complex?
The assembly is designed to be accessible, quick, and requires no major modifications. Weighing only 23 kilograms, it easily attaches to the vast majority of... Load Bars and off-road style roof racks. The design includes anchor points that easily adapt to existing racks on the 4x4 market.
Do LED light strips require an external power source at the campsite?
Yes, both LED lighting kits require connection to an external power source, such as a vehicle's auxiliary battery, a portable power station, or a suitable power box. They offer powerful yet energy-efficient illumination, perfect for lighting the entire area under the canvas without draining your starter batteries.
