Default Re: Power Awning?

I've got a A&E Dometic. Its the biggest power one they make. But I'd have to measure it to tell you how long it is. It does NOT have auto wind retract. My old trailer had the one with the auto wind retract. It was a pain in the rear. Not sure if something was wrong with it or what. But it would retract out of the blue. Even if the wind wasn't blowing. The power is nice. But nothing wrong with the manual ones. Biggest advantage is if it start raining.You don't get soaked trying to put the awning in. Camping world used to have a deal where it you bought it from them. And had it shipped to their store. They would install it for free. That's How I did the first one. But my current stacker. I installed the channel and awning myself. If you have a couple ladders and 2 helpers its easy to do. My wife and my neighbors teenager were my helpers and trust me neither has ANY mechanical experience.
