van conversion
We have a converted H2 van and an outdoor revolution movelite awning. We are really starting to hate the awning but it is a necessity when 2-3 teenage kids with us. Attaching to the van is an issue.
It’s impossible to get a good watertight seal so the rain doesn’t come in the open sliding door.
Tried the throw over straps. Tried a magnetic strip - which is absolutely crap and I wouldn’t bother. The magnets wouldn’t hold up a kids drawing to a fridge door. We just end up using our own extra strong magnets.
Before I give up completely - any other suggestions for best way to attach awning to van?
 
I dumped the awning, bought a decathlon living base tent... 3m square standalone and air pumped. A door can be 'attached' to your van but not water tight... you can seal the kids in there...!!
 
I gave up on attaching to the van, and bought a quest 4 pro.

I've had one site who refused to let me use it "all awnings must be attached", but otherwise no problem. Takes about 3 minutes to erect.

With a larger family, you might find a quest 6 pro better.
