You picked out a beautiful campsite for the weekend, a nice place to pause and relax. But before you can enjoy it, you have a whole checklist for getting your RV set up at your campsite. Getting your manual retractable awning extended is one of those tedious chores. Wrestling with your heavy canopy as you crank it all the way out, turn by turn, is exhausting and takes forever. It's time to find a better way to do this.
With a power awning, there's no bother and there's no effort: push a button and your awning rolls in and out, just like that. It wires right into your RV's power so it's always ready to go. If you ever find yourself without power, there's a manual override built into the drive head that you can use to retract or extend your awning with a power drill (not included).
Note: The manual override function is not available on 2017 Forest River Cherokee campers.
Best of all, this conversion kit is a great economical option. You don't need to buy new fabric or a new roller to upgrade to a power awning. You just need these new awning arms and endcaps, and you're good to go.
Automatic Rain Dump
One thing that can quickly ruin your camping trip is a broken awning. It's not easy or cheap to replace, and you can't really enjoy your patio without one. A big hazard to a healthy awning is rain: water pools in the fabric, stretching it out and putting strain on the arms with extra weight it wasn't designed to hold. Next thing you know, the fabric rips - the arms snap - the whole awning comes crashing down, slamming against your RV and leaving you with a big and costly problem.
For traditional awnings, it's up to you to run out in the rain and lower one of the arms yourself. If you're away from your RV when it starts to rain, you can only hope your awning isn't damaged when you get back. Solera awning arms are smarter than that. This conversion kit comes equipped with an automatic rain dump function. As soon as rainwater starts to pool in the fabric, one of the arms will automatically drop, giving your awning a pitched angle. The rainwater will then run off to one side, taking the pressure off your awning and your mind.
Manual Pitch Adjustment
It's hard to get your awning in just the right place to keep you in the shade all day, especially with those awnings that are pretty high off the ground. Sometimes you need just a little slant to your awning to keep the sun out of your eyes. The manual pitch adjustment built into these arms gives you that option. Simply pull on one of the arms at the friction joint to drop that corner. It comes down easily and holds itself there for as long as you need it. When it's time to retract your awning, there's no need to readjust it; the awning will slide back into place.

Perfect fit for my custom built Sling Shot hauler camper.
Worried at first because the directions state the arms are to convert other brands but it fits my Solera brand awning perfectly.
Have purchased many items from etrailer in the last 2 months for this custom build. Great service and quality products.
by: Bernard 05/09/2024
Fast service, directions are easy to understand, I couldn't be happier with E- Trailer. Not my first experience and won't be my last !!
by: Austin03/25/2024
The part I ordered is here in one piece thankfully but the box is destroyed. This happens almost every time the part is being delivered by ups. You should have a talk with your shipper or have options for other shippers to avoid this damage.
by: David02/02/2019
Found that the end caps for awning roller will not fit carefree longitude style roller, was able to adapt caps using 3 inch schedule 40 PVC pipe. Cut to 1 inch length then notched to fit inside of cap, attached with self drilling self taping screws, picture of modifications shown. Awning now has excellent arms with all the adjustments I could ask for

These were an exact match, good quality and installed quickly. The package was delivered on time and the etrailer videos were very helpful. The order came with new hardware and easy to understand instructions. This is my second order from etrailer and I have not been disappointed. Their customer support was great.
by: Paul 10/11/2022
We order from etrailer when we need to expedite a RV component or vehicle hitch quickly to take care of a guest. They have had very good service and the free shipping on certain items is always a bonus. With the difficulty of getting parts of any kind this last year, they have been a real shot in the arm for customer service.
by: Justin 10/18/2021
This was a great option for replacement after my awning lost a battle to a wind gust. The install went about as smooth as a universal fit could go. I did have to compensate for the head shafts being about an inch longer from center than original, and I had to drill a 1.5" hole in the back to fit my feed wires through, but mounting was a breeze. I suggest having caulk handy for every screw hole you can reuse, and every new screw you drive through the siding. As for shipping, With the way electronics leads are right now, shipping was the best it could be for an out of stock product. Etrailer stayed with me giving updates through out the whole process, even giving me replacement options I could have taken. All in all this was a great product with an easy 2 person installation. Etrailers customer support is top tier!
by: Todd 07/09/2023
Arrived in a timely manner and in good shape. They work great and fit perfectly.
by: Ian09/13/2021
After one of my employees backed into a customer's 20 day old travel trailer and destroyed the awning emailed came to my rescue. Item was priced right and was an exact fit. etrailer had different options so I could purchase only the items that were damaged. Thanks for the smooth transaction and quick shipment etrailer.com!

A windstorm bent every one of hte arm pieces from our awning and we needed a replacement fast. We ordered these replacement arms, wired them up and had a working awning in a few hours. They're done great for us!
by: Austin09/03/2020
After damaging the awning of my RV, I ordered these as a replacement. And had them installed at local RV masters store.
The awning has worked great since then. And the cost was not bad.
by: Terry09/15/2018
I had a great experience with ordering my awning arms. They arrived when promised. I am still waiting on my awning fabric to arrive, which I was told it would be a week and a half later. so far so good.

- Lippert Solera Powered Universal Awning Conversion Kit For Dometic A&E AwningThe Solera 12V Power RV Awning Conversion Kit # LC434723 will allow you to convert your 21' Dometic A&E manual awning to electric. It does require at least 2-1/2" from the top of your door to the awning rail to ensure the door does not scrape on the awning fabric as the door opens and closes.
view full answer... - Can The Solera Rollbar Be Used With The Dometic 9100 Series Awnings?I do have a potential solution for you, however the Solera Rollbar Only for 21' Black Awning, Black Tube # LC260560477 that you mention, is only intended to be used on Solera awnings and will not work for your Dometic 9100 awning. Instead, I recommend upgrading your arms from manual to electric with the Solera 12V Electric RV Awning Conversion Kit # LC434723. From here, you will be able to replace your fabric and roller tube with the Solera XL Power Awning Roller Assembly # LCV000335015. These...
view full answer... - Will the Pull Style to Power Awning Conversion Kit Work On a Manual Crank Style AwningIn regards to manual awnings there are two types, manual crank and manual pull. If you have the manual crank style then you'd need to use the Solera 12V Power RV Awning Conversion Kit part # LC434723. If you have the manual pull style then you'd need to use the Solera Manual Pull Style to Power Awning Conversion Kit part # LC329251. The two are not interchangeable or cross compatible. I understand one kit is more cost effective then the other but it will not work.
view full answer... - Determining Correct Manual Crank To Power Awning Conversion Kit For Awning On 2006 Weekend WarriorDepending on which brand awning your 2006 Weekend Warrior has there may be a conversion kit to make it electric. For example if your awning is a Solera you can use the Solera Manual Crank Style to Power Awning Conversion Kit # LC337728 to convert it to electric. If you can tell me what brand awning you have I would be happy to see if there is a conversion kit made. I have also included a link to all of our awning conversion kits for you to take a look at.

I attached a review video for this kit for you to check out as well.
view full answer... - Replacement Awning Arms for Dometic Power AwningAll of the replacement support systems that we have are for manual applications so if you're needing to replace your electric arms then I recommend using one of the conversion kits. These come with 69" long arms and Black # LC434723 and White # LC434724 depending on what you're needing. To make sure the longer length works you simply need to make sure you have 69" of unobstructed area from the awning rail straight down. I have attached a review video for you to check out.
view full answer... - Replacement 12 Volt Awning Arms For Carefree EclipseWe have an option for you to replace the 12 volt awning arms on your Carefree Eclipse, but we don't carry that brand so no direct replacement. But so long as you have at least 69 inches of space straight down from the awning rail you can replace those arms with a kit from Lippert, which is available in either White or Black: - White: Solera 12V Electric RV Awning Conversion Kit - 69" Arms # LC434724 - Black: Solera 12V Electric RV Awning Conversion Kit - 69" Arms # LC434723

view full answer... - Solera Awning Arms to Replace Dometic 8500 Awning ArmsI reached out to my contact at Lippert and he said that if your Dometic 8500 model awning is powered then you can use the Solera 12V Power RV Awning Conversion Kit # LC434723, and if it is a manual you can use the Solera Universal Awning Support Arms for RVs # LC434727. The kit # LC434717 that you referenced unfortunately isn't compatible with your 8500 model.

view full answer... - Is Carefree Awning Roller Tube Compatible with Solera Awning Arms LC281154My awning contact at Lippert advised that the very first thing to do before you try to install the Carefree awning you have purchased is to contact the maker of the trailer with its VIN to confirm that the internal construction is able to handle the weight of an awning installation. Not all trailers have the internal frame structure required to safely install an awning so this is your first step. Lippert also advised that the existing motors on your roller tube will not be compatible...
view full answer... - Recommended Power Conversion Kit for Dometic AwningWhen measuring to determine the length of the new arms for your Dometic awning, what matters is the amount of space you have for the brackets. So the Solera XL Power Awning Support Arms # LC362243 would work as long as you have 78" when measuring straight down from the awning rail. However, these arms are designed for the XL power awning. Since you want to convert from manual to powered, I recommend the Solera 12V Power RV Awning Conversion Kit - Universal - 69" Arms - Black # LC434723...
view full answer... - Upgrading Manual Pull Out Dometic Awning to Powered AwningYou definitely can! If you wanted to tie the power for the awning into the current 12V system on your RV then you'll need part # LC434723 for Black or part # LC434724 for White. These have 69" arms and are compatible with a Dometic awning. If you'd rather have a power awning that runs off of it's own power (so you don't have to connect wires to your RV) then we also have the 18V battery powered option in Black # LC434729 and White # LC434730. These are basically identical to the set mentioned...

- Parts Needed to Convert Manual Awning to Powered ArmsIf your arms are damaged then your best bet is going with a complete awning kit since this will give you everything you need to replace all of the potentially damaged components. I recommend using the Solera 18V Power RV Awning - 20' Wide - Rechargeable Battery - Black Fade # LC729517 which uses a rechargeable battery to power the awning; we do not have a plug in powered awning, but this would eliminate the need for any connection to the battery of the coach.
