In the harsh Australian sun, we are always looking for smart ways to reduce sun exposure. Sure we love the outdoors and getting a bit of Vitamin D, but too much sun can be dangerous. Rhino-Rack has made bringing shade on adventures achievable, with the latest addition to the Stow-iT family: the STOW iT Awning Adaptor.

How does it work?

Used in conjunction with the STOW iT Starter Kit, all you need to do is slide the Awning Adaptor into the base bracket. If you’re someone that values an easy installation, you’ll be stoked to know it’s both quick and easy! There’s also no need to worry about a complicated pack down. The STOW iT Awning Adaptor offers a quick removal so you can store your Batwing Awning when it’s not in use. It takes less time to set up and remove, so you can spend more time doing what you love.

How will it help protect me?

The Rhino-Rack Batwing Awning and Sunseeker Awning are both UV-protected with a UV50+ rating. This means you can experience all that the off-road terrain has to offer, while remaining safe from the sun underneath your shade. There’s nothing like a blistering sunburn to ruin your trip! Not to mention, being careful in the sun outdoors is important as the majority of skin cancers are caused by exposure to the sun. Cancer Council recommends seeking shade as one of their tips to reduce your chance of contracting skin cancer. How great is it that you can bring this shade with you to protect yourself and your family?

We know the blazing sun doesn’t hit us all year-long. In fact, lately on the East coast we’ve been having a fair share of bucketing rain. The Batwing Awning and Sunseeker Awning are made from durable material that’s both water and mould resistant. This means even throughout the wet seasons, you can still enjoy the great outdoors without getting completely soaked. Even the family dog will be able to keep dry with the rest of you.

Stay sun safe and dry with the STOW iT Awning Adaptor that allows you to bring your shade along for the ride.

Will it last the distance?

Of course when buying a new product for your trips away, you want to be able to trust that it’s going to be tough enough for the terrain. What’s the use if it can’t last the distance? The STOW iT Awning Adaptor is built tough, so you can rely on its durability for many adventures to come. Weighing just half a kilogram, it features two mounting holes and a slot. These are what allow you to mount a Batwing Awning or Sunseeker Awning at differing heights.

With Summer on the horizon, you want to make sure that your adventures are safe. You also want them to allow you the protection to continue taking them. Despite the common saying, we want to be here for a good time and a long time. Bringing your awning along, with the help of your STOW iT Awning Adaptor, is one innovative way to be safer in the Aussie sun.
