    Look at the Hisika awning they have it on Amazon. It's multipositional and works great off the back. It also offers much more coverage than say an ARB 1250. I just ordered one last night to use on the rear of our off road micro camper

    I got the Hasika a nd put it on our little camper. I was fairly impressed. Easy set up and tear down, light and sturdy.

    It can be laid on the ground and used as an auxillary tent


    leave the poles out for extra rain protection


    Only use a couple of the poles so it's shorter which was what we liked



    or use all the pole sections and raise it to full height

    That's neat. How does it attach to the camper? How do you like your Tigermoth?? So many questions!

    Tiger moth seems great so far I've slept in it for the last 3 nights. The dog doesn't like it so I gotta work on that just took her to the vet and got some anxiety meds so we'll see. The awning is actually made for going over the rear of a vehicle like attaching to the back of a truck cap. I set that end on top of the camper and strapped it down and it fit fine except the one corner touched the window on the side hatch when opened. I've been playing with it and came up with a pvc solution which works great. I may modify it some more but for like $7 in materials I'm not complaining.


    you can see here mounted direcly to the roof it workked fine but was afraid it may end up scratching the window


    here's my fix I may attack it to the basket or just stick it up there when I set the awning up
