Video Transcript for Camco Lights Out Retractable RV Roof Vent Shade Review

Today well be reviewing the Camco lights out retractable shade for RV roof beds. Part number CAM42913. The retractable shade is made out of a durable light weight vinyl thats easy to extend and retract. The reflective surface will deflect heat to help keep your RV cool. The retractable shade is very compact and to pull it out you just use the handle here. When its a roof vent we want to make sure that this gray reflected material is facing up so that it can keep out the harsh rays from the sun.

We have two mounting holes right here, this are adjustable. You can slide then to fit the existing holes that are around your vent. When the shade is fully extended the dimensions are 19 inches long by 14 and one eight inches wide. It also comes with a one year limited warranty. Including this package is the retractable shade and the amount of hardware thats needed. Well go ahead and move on and show you how to install.

To begin we need to remove our adjustment screws. Now you only need to remove screws from one side of your vent. Take our shade and make sure that we can engrave right up the holes. Like I said, these are adjustable so you can move them as necessary. Fit our screw in and go ahead and screw it in place.

Now there is a third screw that is included in the hardware kit, so that when youre shade is all the way extended out, you can drill a whole, install your screw and tighten it. Then you can push in the button to retract the shade so that the screw slides into the smaller hole and will hold your shade in place. For our demonstration today we will not be installing that third screw. Theres a button here on the side that you push and it will allow the shade to retract, and that will complete todays review as the Camco lights out retractable shade for RV roof vents, part number CAM42913. .

by:

Very helpful to block out the lights on the vents fit very good, easy and to stall. Thank you



by:

The shade fits nicely! Honestly I’m not sure how long it will last! We will see! Thank you!



by:

Sorry for the delay in posting a review. I had to wait until I was able to travel to the trailer (husband uses it to work out of state). I forgot to take pictures of them too. This product is EXACTLY what we needed to put on our skylights/vents to help block the light & heat. It was a SIMPLE install. They have worked just like the description said. They are easy to retract in the kitchen when I need to open the vent & use the fan when cooking. They have cut out about 90% of the light (in my opinion) and helped kept the trailer considerably cooler!!! I WHOLE HEARTEDLY recommend this product !!!!! AND etrailer sent them a day early!



by:

Its a little flimsy, and my wife destroyed the first one in 5 minutes because she didn't know there was a button the side to retract so pulled it past its end point expecting it to start retracting. I'm pretty handy at fixing things, but the pressed metal and plastic is minimally structurally sound so it was irrepairable. After getting another one and using it ever since, its does the job just fine, its what i expect for the money. The upside is, it does a fantastic job of keeping the suns rays out, and gives me a bit more time in bed in the morning before the sun wakes me up creeping through the edges.



by:

Product is super easy to install, and fits great. It does block a good amount of light, but not completely blocking. Perfect fix for blocking most of that early morning light, to allow some sleeping in. It was the perfect solution, for the issue we were having. Etrailer was super fast on the shipping, and had excellent communication!



by:

Purchased 2 shades for skylights in the living area and bathroom in our RV. We got them to keep out the heat. The shades were very easy to install and it is noticeably cooler standing under the skylights. Happy with purchase. Only wish they were a little longer. We're missing about two inches to cover from frame to frame.



by:

THIS LITTLE SCREEN HEPS WITH MY OVERHEAD VENT IN MY TEArdrop trailer. i like that its simple and darken the trailer to keep from getting sunlight blasting into the space mid day.



by:

The shade that we ordered was exactly what we needed. Your online services were processed immediately, delivery was prompt (delivery date exactly what you indicated) , and we are completely satisfied. I highly recommend etrailer services to anyone.

Perfect



by:

Mechanism sprung before installation complete. Questionable whether or not this could ever be an acceptable accessory.



by:

Great product. Easy installation. It certainly will cut down on the morning sun over the bed.........

Fine! Rugged and keeps the light out. What more could you ask for?



by:

We installed this shade over bedroom vent. Does it's job by blocking majority of light to allow longer sleep.



by:

Didn't work for us, the shade came disconnected on the first use. etrailer refunded our money, so happy with that.



by:

Recently purchased an motor home that already had a couple of the shade screens on. They work great, so I am putting one over the skylight in the shower.



by:

The shade worked well to block the light from the fan over our bed. It doesn't retract fully automatically, but will do so gradually with effort - BUT, overall, very satisfied. :)



by:

worked great over the roof vent in the motorhome.



by:

Great product at a great price! Installs in literally a minute using existing holes. Fits looks and works great.

One of the two still works great. The spring on the second one doesnt work and I have to roll it up by hand. Still good value for the price. I just need to replace the one.



by:

I just received the shade and have not been able to install it yet. It looiks fine, but how it works I will have to see.

Mel J.

9/25/2018

Unfortunately, the shade did not fit too short.



by:

They work well after a year and the snaps are still good and held up to the UV. Great value also.



by:

We received our order quickly and we very pleased with the items we ordered. I would definitely order from this company again.



by:

Item works great, only thing I wise, it was a couple of inches longer, great delivery time. Would recommend you.



by:

The product was as described. Works good, easy to install. Great product.



by:

Have not installed them yet but they look great. If they are as good as they look you will have a very happy customer. Gary



by:

Works helps lower / stabilize temps



by:

Does not overlap the vent enough to keep light out



by:

Works great! Product promptly arrived as described.

  • How Long is the Tube of the Camco Lights Out Retractable Shade for RV Roof Vents
    Yes. The Camco Lights Out Retractable Shade for RV Roof Vents # CAM42913 will fit just fine on your RV vent that is 14-1/8"; the actual Lights Out Retractable Shade # CAM42913 itself is 14-1/8" wide and with the ends caps the overall length is 16-1/4" long.

  • Availability of Skylight Shade for 14 x 22 Inch Skylight
    Something like the Camco SunShield Reflective Window Cover, part # CAM45167 might work for you. The cover measures 16-1/4 x 25 and attaches with hook and loop fasteners. Unfortunately, we don't offer a retractable shade larger than the Camco # CAM42913 you referenced.

  • Retractable Shade Compatibility with 23-3/4 Inch By 16 Inch Skylight
    The Camco Lights Out Retractable Shade for RV Roof Vents # CAM42913 fully extended is 19" long x 14-1/8"wide. We don't currently carry a shade that is longer or wider. You would need to add trim to the inside of your skylight to make this product work and that is my recommendation since you will still have plenty of natural light when desired and the ability to have shade when desired. There isn't a product directly compatible from any of our manufacturers so this is a work around option.

  • Insulator For MaxxAir Mini Trailer Roof Vent
    The insulators for standard 14x14 roof vents like part # CAM45192 do not fit into the vent opening of the MaxxAir Mini Roof Vent part # MA00-03700. The actual vent opening of the MaxxAir is 10-1/2" so the 14 inch insulator is not going to fit into the opening. The MaxxAir mini Roof Vent fits roofs that are 1" to 4-1/2" thick. I recommend Camco retractable shade part # CAM42913. The shade attaches to the garnish of the roof vent and extends to 19 inches long to block the light when you...

  • Extended Length and Width of Camco Lights Out Retractable Shade for RV Roof Vents
    When fully extended, the Camco Lights Out Retractable Shade for RV Roof Vents # CAM42913 referenced in your question measures 19 inches long and 14-1/8 inches wide.

  • Can Camco RV Roof Vent Lights Out Retractable Shade be Installed in Other Locations
    The Camco Lights Out Retractable Shade, part # CAM42913, is intended for roof vents but can be installed anywhere you want. It is 14-1/8 inches wide so it won't cover an area wider than that. You also may need to drill holes if you're installing it somewhere other than a roof vent.

  • Installation Method for Camco Lights Out Retractable RV Vent Shade # CAM42913
    I pulled a sample of the Camco Lights Out Retractable RV Vent Shade # CAM42913 so I could see just how much pressure it would apply on the third supplied screw that suspends the extended end of the screen. This shade's spring retraction mechanism does NOT pull constantly. Once extended there is no pressure pulling the shade material back in - not until you press the automatic retraction button on the end of the tubular housing. So when you have the shade extended it will NOT put force...

  • Does Reflective Surface of Camco Lights Out Retractable RV Shade Create Heat to Damage Vent Lid
    I can't say that it's ever been tested but there aren't any reports of the Camco Lights Out RV Retractable Shade, part # CAM42913, causing any damage to a roof vent lid. It does block heat from entering your RV but it doesn't emit its own heat so I can't imagine in anyway that it could.

    The Camco Lights Out Retractable Shade, part # CAM42913, can be used anywhere you want. However, it only measures 14-1/8 by 19 inches so it isn't going to cover your entire skylight. Although, you could use 3 of them to cover it.

  • Option For Covering Skylight/Sunroof in Travel Trailer
    Hi Shelly, thanks for the question and it's possible we have something depending on the dimensions of your skylight/sunroof. What most people use for this is the Camco Lights Out Retractable Shade for RV Roof Vents # CAM42913. Technically it's to cover up vents, but could work for you as when fully extended it measures 19" long x 14-1/8"wide. You asked about a pillow, and there is one, but again it's for vents is smaller than the aforementioned retractable shade. For a 14" x 14" pillow...
