    iKamper Skycamp initial thoughts and observations

    That’s sweet! Did you do that review linked? Wow, that was a flashback looking at my old post, ha. I now work at the shop I bought my iKamper from and sell iKampers all day! They’ve come a long way in the 3 years since then. I still have my original tent, but sold it to my buddy and I have a 2.0...

    New 270 Awning available.

    Yeah I don’t know where the 68# came from. I weighed the RLD Ghost 360 today at 49#.53# with the roof rack arms. My previous Eezi Awn Swift was heavier than I expected at 39#.

    New 270 Awning available.

    Yeah I swear I had a pic of it on the scale. I’ll find it. I had a Eezi Awn Swift on the truck before which I also love. They both have different strengths and weaknesses, just depends on what factors matter more for you I guess.

    New 270 Awning available.

    I recently fitted up a 360 Ghost Awn by RLD. The vaulted ceiling is a really nice feature. It has 6 poles and is more rigid than I was expecting. I weighed it at 48.1 lbs not including the roof rack brackets. It throws massive shade and the fabric is very thick. It deploys super quick, but close...

    Rhino Rack Batwing vs Foxwing Pioneer Platform Mounting Brackets

    From what I remember, the Foxwing bracket and Batwing brackets are the same dimensions. The Batwing bracket, #43259 has a smooth finish and less holes drilled meant to fit specific to the Batwing. The Foxwing #43100 has a rough finish and a few extra holes drilled.

    Are there any wide hardshells other than Baroud?

    There are a bunch of knock off iKampers showing up in the US recently. They are in no way up to the quality level of IKamper tents. In the hundreds of Skycamps we (Rhino Adventure Gear) have sold and installed in the last 2 years, we haven’t had any structural shell defect or failure. I do not...

    Introducing the Eezi-Awn Swift Awning

    I don’t doubt the Eezi Awn 3 wall set is great, but I have been happy modding 2 ARB awning walls to fit my Swift. The 2 walls are cheap and they do the job at creating a great windbreak and a playroom for our kids. It’s also, super compact.

    HDPE vs. Full Drawer Slides

    I used UHMW tape over 2 years ago for my drawers. I just stuck it to a 1” runner on each side of the drawer. Bottom drawer is 44” long and it slides pretty well. That drawer can weigh probably 200# full. I haven’t had to replace the tape over these 2 years. I just wipe Armor All on the strips...

    Hard Shell RTT - Alu Cab vs GFC vs Camp King

    Romer, I took the opportunity when I was at the shop to take a few phone photos of the Camp King. This one is mounted on three HD Rhino Rack crossbars. If you need more info I can get you measurements etc. We (Rhino Adventure Gear) have a half dozen or so Camp Kings for sale coming on a boat...

    Mounting a hard shell RTT

    What rack and what tent exactly? A very thin rubber strip shouldn’t hurt. If there are 10 crossbars and only 2 are clamped to the tent, there may be a chance of vibration between the remaining 8 bars.

    Hardshell Tents Colors vs. Temperature

    Yeah you got it, I forgot the wind on the video too botches results. I have plenty of hard shell tents on hand. I may just have to do a test myself at the shop.

    Hardshell Tents Colors vs. Temperature

    Noah, here is a video comparing white and black shell internal temps from Luke at Drifta. Not all hardshells are the same and the only fault in the video is that the fiberglass is not directly 90* to the sun, but still some good takeaways. I don’t think internal temps inside the tent, when open...

    iKamper Skycamp initial thoughts and observations

    I’ve mounted solar on mine. I could have probably gotten away with 165 watts up there. Drifta 4wd also sells a kit to add solar to the iKamper.

    Stolen Rooftop Tent - Keep your eyes out please

    Sorry to hear about this. Where’d you buy your iKamper from? All Skycamp tents have a serial number on the underside of the wing portion of the floor, if you can find the number it can help to pinpoint your tent down the line. Did you have the locking mounting brackets?

    Fold out RTT with hard shell when closed?

    So basically a shorter iKamper. Yes I think a lot of people would like that. Around 60”x54”
