Built on the black Girard GG750 cassette and paired with Apollo solar fabric, it combines shade and solar production in one legless 12V awning system. This is a strong fit for vans, RVs, trailers, and some building applications.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe solar awning is available in five lengths and can be configured with your preferred control package and motor location (right-hand or left-hand motor). \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eChoose from a hardwired motion sensor and rocker switch package, a G-Link RF Wall Switch + Motion Sensor, or an RV-C + Motion Sensor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is especially compelling for larger vans or RVs where the roof is already crowded or maxed out with solar, vents, and roof penetrations. On bigger platforms, customers can maximize the roof and add one or even two solar awnings to dramatically increase total available solar capacity. If you are trying to reduce generator use, shore power dependence, or roof congestion, this awning creates a new solar surface on the side of the vehicle instead of competing for roof real estate.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"important-info\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"important-info__title\"\u003eImportant Info\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis solar awning is heavier than a traditional side awning and requires adequate mounting support. Always verify structure, bracket compatibility, available mounting space, and installation method before ordering or replacing an existing awning. Since they are made to order, there are no returns.

Panels\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eRoof space disappears quickly on a van or RV. Fans, air conditioners, storage boxes, roof racks, antennas, and access paths all compete with fixed solar panels. The GG750 Solar Awning creates an additional solar surface along the side of the vehicle, allowing the roof to remain available for other equipment. On larger vehicles, it can supplement an existing roof-mounted solar array without requiring additional roof penetrations.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor many builds, that means you can keep your roof fan, rooftop AC, storage or rack space, and still add serious solar wattage. On large vans like Sprinter 170 EXT, Transit 148 EXT, and ProMaster 159 Extended, this can be a powerful way to expand total solar capacity beyond what roof-only systems usually allow (up to 3175 watts ON A VAN when paired with our \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Orion van gear roof racks\" href=\"https:\/\/orionvangear.com\/collections\/roof-racks\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eroof racks\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThe solar awning should be treated as a solar source that connects to an existing \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca title=\"Electrical systems\" href=\"https:\/\/orionvangear.com\/collections\/lithium-batteries\"\u003eelectrical system\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e through an appropriately sized \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca title=\"Victron Mppt Charge Controller\" href=\"https:\/\/orionvangear.com\/products\/victron-smartsolar-mppt-solar-charge-controller-screw-terminals-75v-to-250v-10a-to-70a?variant=46611286360290\"\u003esolar charge controller\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e.
