Modestly sized but boasting sufficient shade – bask in those outdoor, round-the-back hangouts with the Extreme Mini Darkness Awning by Bushwakka.
Owed to an effortless one-person set-up and pack-down process, bask in outback tranquility sooner – while an aluminium square-tube frame and stainless steel hardware boasts a lightweight but strong setup. Be it rain or UV rays, a 900D waterproof polycotton canvas treated with UV50+ offers superior protection from the elements – plus, loosen up in the comfort of your intact setup thanks to quick-release rope ratchets for tensioning.
Light up those late-night cuppa times owing to four built-in LED light arms providing both white and amber lighting, equipped with a 5-metre cord and 12-volt accessory plug for convenience. Plus, in wet and windy weather, make use of the tie-off points to create a gutter for water run-off – while a built-in leg offers versatility in its moveability to other arms of the awning.
Mini but mighty, the Bushwakka Extreme Mini Darkness Awning is the stand-out solution to transportable outdoor shade.
Thank you for replay. How far do the arms come from car.and what is the total coverage of the awning .my bars are 1200 apart so no worries with that.and do they sell a wall kit and can you buy extra poles
G'day David,
The front arm by the passenger door comes out approximately 1495mm from the awning base, the 3 next arms vary slightly in length but are close to 1585mm each, and the back 2 arms are about 1635mm. The total coverage of the awning is 8 sqm.
They currently do not have a wall kit to suit the Mini Darkness that will enclose it completely. You can attach the Extreme Single Wall 2000mm which will help provide a wind block and provide extra shade. We also have the extra poles here - Extreme Range Single Leg (2.3m).
Is this awning suitable for a double cab Ute Holden Rg Colorado with arb canopy with heavy duty cross bars .Thankyou
G'day David,
Yes, this should suit a double cab ute with a canopy, just be sure that your crossbars are at least 60cm apart.
As I understand it the roof load rating is 25Kg, by attaching this awning to any roof rack or bars would exceed the rating and thus nullify the insurance. Have I got the roof rating incorrect. I note the one picture has the awning, a RTT and other attachments, estimate 60kg minimum. How is this being legally achieved? I would like to do similar but wish to stay legal.
G'day Gavin,
Roof load rating is specific to the vehicle, so it will depend on the manufacturer's specifications for your specific vehicle. You should check your vehicle rating using your model or VIN number with the manufacturer. They range from somewhere in the 30-40kg range for smaller 4WDs, up to 80-100kg for some of the larger 4WDs.
