Anchoring the new electric awning
Just got a new rig with the electric awning and was wondering about anchoring it when out. Its not the one that senses wind and closes on its own- I'm still not sure how useful that is, at least as far as your stuff getting wet.
The new awning with its sissors mechanism looks a lot less substantial than the old style but is a whole lot handier since you don't have to "rassel" it. I don't really mind closing it up when not in use but it would be even better to be able to leave it out when gone for a few hours.
Anyone had any experience with tying it down like the old ones? Does it need some poles for upward support as well as downward support with tie downs and bungees?
Any thoughts?
