Solution to Add LED Lights to Carefree Power Awning

Question:

I have a carefree power awning and I would like to add led lights at the roller. Do I need to replace the idler head to get the slip disc or can I just add the slip disc? Do you have what I need?

I have a solution for you, but if you were wanting to add LED lights to your roller, it's unfortunately not going to be as simple as just adding the slip disc # LC330961. The most cost-effective option is just using something like the LED Light Strip Kit w/ Wireless RF Remote Control - 12V or 110V - 7 Colors - 16' Long # DG52688BU, which has an adhesive backing that can be attached to your awning. This is a multi-color light that comes with a remote control, and it will work well on your awning at a bit better price point than replacing the entire roller assembly and fabric- which would be the only other alternative.

I've linked a short review video of these LED lights for you to check out. If you wanted to replace the roller and fabric just let me know how wide your existing awning is and I can see what conversions might be available.
