Transform your outdoor adventures with our the Darche Solar Roof Top Tent, the first roof top tent with a solar panel integrated directly into the shell. Imagine waking up to breathtaking views and the sounds of nature, all from your elevated sanctuary.
Stay powered up on your adventures with the fully integrated 112W solar panel and built-in USB ports conveniently located inside the tent. Whether you’re charging devices or powering lights, staying connected has never been easier.
Set up is a breeze, thanks to the German-engineered Stabilus gas struts that allow for effortless setup and pack down. In just minutes, you’ll be ready to relax under the stars.
The Solar Roof Top Tent is crafted from aviation-grade 6-series aluminium and our new breathable 380gsm polycotton canvas featuring Darche Darkness® technology. This innovative fabric not only reduces interior temperatures and light levels but also minimizes condensation, ensuring a comfortable night’s sleep.
Ventilation is key, and with a zippered sky window and three full-width doors equipped with fine one-way insect mesh, you can enjoy fresh air without worrying about unwanted guests. Plus, integrated bi-colour LED lights let you choose between warm amber and bright white, creating the perfect ambiance for any occasion.
For restful nights, we’ve included a luxurious 70mm memory foam mattress paired with an anti-condensation mat, providing the comfort you deserve after a day of adventure. When it’s time to climb back down, our easy-action 2.3m aluminium telescopic ladder suits most vehicle heights (max vehicle/bed base height 2.2m), making access simple and safe.
Stay organized with internal side and roof storage pockets, perfect for stashing your gear and keeping essentials within reach. And with all-season protection featuring high-profile automotive rubber weather seals inside overlapping side extrusions, taped seams, and reinforced stitching, you can rest easy knowing you’re ready for whatever the elements throw your way.
Finally, when it’s time to pack up, there’s ample space inside the tent to store all your gear, with room for at least 2 sleeping bags and 2 pillows (and more!) when closed.
