Onyx 270 Awning - 6 Arm Right + Bracket Kit 2

Overview

The Onyx 270 is a freestanding 270-degree vehicle awning rigged for the right (passenger) side. It covers 110 sq ft in a single arc and stands on a self-supporting 6-arm aluminum box truss, so one person can set it up in calm conditions.

Key features

• 270-degree freestanding coverage, 110 sq ft, opening 18.5 ft long by 6.2 ft deep off the passenger side
• 6-arm aluminum box-truss frame, self-supporting in calm air; six telescoping legs (52.5 to 100 in) plus guy ropes and stakes for wind and overnight
• 320gsm polycotton honeycomb canvas with LST undercoating to block light and reduce heat under the awning

• Two ceiling pass-through panels for side or rear rooftop-tent access; 1680D laminated transit cover with #10 self-repairing zip

Use cases

Pull off, swing it out, and you've got an instant shaded zone for cooking, staging gear, or sitting out the midday heat — covered from the front door around to the rear. Paired with a rooftop tent, the pass-through panels let you move between sleeping and living space without stepping into the sun or rain.

Can one person set it up?

Yes, in calm conditions. The 6-arm box truss is self-supporting, so a single person can swing it out and lock it. Two people is faster, and for overnight or windy camps you should drop the six telescoping legs and stake the guy ropes.

What roof rack or vehicle do I need?

Plan on about 87 inches of usable rack length on the passenger side, mounted to a rack rated for the load. Before you commit, check that your rear hatch or barn doors clear the swing of the arms when the awning opens.

How are the LED lights powered?

The four 58-inch dimmable strips run off a USB switch cord or the app. There is no built-in battery, so you power them from a 12V or USB source — a portable power station or your rig's electrical system works fine.

Will it hold up in wind?

Freestanding is meant for calm conditions and quick stops. For wind or overnight, that's what the six telescoping legs (52.5 to 100 in) and guy ropes are for — set them and stake it down. Leaving it freestanding in gusts is how awnings get bent.

How do I keep the canvas from getting moldy?

Pack it dry. The 320gsm polycotton honeycomb canvas will mildew if you roll it up wet and leave it, so let it dry before it goes back in the transit cover. The cover's #10 zip is self-repairing if it skips a tooth.

Does it work with a rooftop tent?

Yes. Two ceiling pass-through panels let you move between a rooftop tent and the awning space for side or rear entry, so you're not stepping out into the weather to get between them.
